in a 10-year relationship


I have this guy in my life,
aside from my dad
we met for 10 minutes back in 1998
and has grown the relationship for 10 years to date
so far the longest of all the series of unfortunate men in my life,
pun intended

he’s has been part of all the significant dramas
in my life after highschool
and has accepted my quirks and screws loose, and i his
we can handle talks while we “tusok-tusok” the fishball
to sipping wine and discussing about art history or van gogh

they say that even the stars agree to our being together
i am Gemini, he is Sagittarius
complimentary in almost everyway
he holds the line at times while i breathe,
and i hold it up when my turn comes
we have our silly competitive contests
where the scores are never remembered
our daily highlights and lowlights
and a knack for being able
to laugh at one another’s “ngak” moments

anything, anywhere, anyone we can take on
though we can even by ourselves
but we can be better if we combine our powers

about a year and a half ago we made a decision
to take the next step in our lives and move into the same house
this time we take the practice of conjugal property to another level
there a days he buys the food and there are days that he gets lazy and i take over
there are days we are excited to talk about life, and days stretching out to weeks
that we just go our own separate ways for a breather

we talk about other relationships we have or have had, the escapades and charades
and though at times we do get jealous, i know he’ll never own up to it
so we just continue sharing our life and the journey towards what we call dreams
this has just been great for me all this time,
i can very well say, if relationships were this mature,
then maybe some companies will go out of business
and the world can be a much better place

so to those that know me you know who he is

he is my will and i am grace
together we are always on the lookout for the next gorgeous man
so we can stare, giggle and make our own kind of fun
and yes...
he is....*giggles*

and that’s what makes the friendship just divine!

postscript. I just learned that someone in his family believes that we are really are a we-will-be-married-soon-enough-kind of couple. I had a hearty laugh hearing about that. he said maybe we should get engagement rings too. I can’t blame them for thinking though, it’s the best relationship set-up i’ve had. I love u tag...to infinity and beyond...
