How this can help us love deeply.
Follow me here and see if you agree. I told my girlfriend at the time, now my wife, that I’ll never actually know her. And in turn she’ll never actually know me.
As people we change. Our bodies, what we believe, our habits, what we wear and what we find entertaining and enjoyable. I absolutely am not the man she met in college and she isn’t the woman I met back then either.
She’ll never know me outright, because I change, and I change often. My wife will know of me and my preferences. I believe that life is too short for any of us to actually get to know someone. For the story of life to unfold, we need more time. That final act will happen, some day. The curtain will come down and that’s that. THE END.
Perhaps this is not what you agree with or like. This is just my view on things. What this does for me,is, being present in my time with my wife. Loving the consistent phases of discovery in her, in who she is. My interest in her should not have ended when we became “official” as a couple. For me, this is a lifelong pursuit to get to know her. Be an expert in all things my wife. Dissect her, inspect her, study her and consume all things my wife. Not only is this what I think all romantic and intimate relationships should be, this is what a marriage should be.
