Love and Marriage

I joke a lot that I just want to get laid. About how I want to get married, so I can get laid. I joke about it probably too much.

But, the reality of the situation is this: sure, I want to have sex. But, more than that, I want someone to wake up next to; or curl up with as I drift off to sleep. I want to roll over in my sleep in the dead of night and have my sweetheart there, breathing rhythmically in his sleep. I want the intimacy that can only be found in a long term committed relationship. I want stupid fights followed by tender apologies. I want to be able to stop wanting.
