The girl who waited.

I'm finally starting to see all the glitches on LJ that everyone has been talking about. Kind of annoying, but I won't be jumping ship just yet. Come on LJ! Pull through! My titles don't show on comment pages and my comments keep getting cut off...


ANYWAY!!

(Meeting for the first time through a mutual friend. Eating Nabe.)
Amazingly delicious!

And I wish I had some right now. I don't know why I did it, but I ate McDonalds for the first time in almost three years, last night. Now, I feel sick to my stomach. Looks like its miso and water for today. 

So, I found out my aunt is getting married the other day. For my family, this is the wedding of the century. My aunt and her boyfriend have been dating for 30 years. I get impatient waiting even three months I guess it's really just a formality since that man is practically already family. 
In any case, I'm really happy for them and I even feel feel admiration towards my aunt. I'm sure she's thought of marriage plenty of times in those 30 years, but not once did they fight over it. I guess that's why they're still together. Instead of worrying about such things, they just enjoyed life. 

Then again, what would they argue about? Obviously neither of them had a fear of commitment since they stuck around each other for so long.... hm,

I know I can't wait 30 years. But, I'd like to me more like my aunt...
In the sense that I have nothing but patience for the man I love. 

LJ, Tell me your thoughts on love and commitment! How important is it to you?

What I mean is that if you guys are at the point where you feel, "I wanna be together forever," then by now, your family, friends, people who see you guys in your area, already know you two are committed to each other, right?

Why spend all this money to have this big party to celebrate something that's already existed for quite some time?

I agree with you that a legal document shouldn't be needed...buuut yeah. They're needed for privileges and rights the law controls, unfortunately. Like I hate the idea of having to fill out some legal document to prove my love, but if I have to do it to be able to for instance, have some say in what happens if my guy gets in to an accident,I'm gonna do it.

But yea, anyway. If love was still just about pure love, it wouldn't be as it is now.
