Do you see your lover as your lifelong partner?

I always wondered whether I am an odd one out. I feel that to fall in love with a person is with the mindset that he or she will be the final one for me. Well, I wouldnt want to entrust my feelings with a person that I think may betray my faith and efforts. However, I see more of separations, divorce, among friends, peers...why is it so...

I see my boyfriend as my lifelong partner. I don't seem to see anyone else that may be able to handle my attitudes or personality the way he can. I think no other man can understand me the way he does. And I can't picture my life without him in the next years.

Well since my partner and I just started dating I dont think we have been together long enough to be able to make that determination, but he is a sweet man. I plan on dating him for a while and if it leads that way then that would be nice.

I never thought I'd ge married. I enjoyed playingarond, bing promiscuous, and I thoght there were just way oo many nteresting people out there to limit myself to loving just one person for the rest of my life. Ten I met Kyle, notnow husband. We have a beautiful daughter, and 2 days ago got his name tattooed on my rng finger (he's had my name sne a week after we got married). Now thisalldoesn't necesssarily mean that I believe we weill be togetherforeve. We got in a fight about 2 months ago in which he filed for divorce and tried to take my daghter from me. We've only been married one year, and we've already tried to divorce once? that doesn't sound promising. I'm not the happiest that i've ever been, he doesn't giv me butterflies anymore (i mean, come on, we are so far in debt we are living athis mother's house right now!) He's diferent ow, I'mdifferent now, but for now, it works. Forever is a long time, and since we are both in our erly twenties, who knows, maybe we will out grow eachother.I just hope that if we do, we can be on good terms fo the sake of ou little girl. I wn to say that i'm fully committed to my marriage, but an anyone really say that? I'm really just playingit b ear.
