But what about the bad days?
- Who loses it first in a fight? Who starts yelling first?
- Who puts their head down and just takes it, because they know the other just needs to get it out?
- Who slams doors and yells and stomps away?
- Or do they sigh and their shoulders slump, as they walk away, quietly shutting the door behind them? Because sometimes the silent disappointment is worse than any yelling
- Who sleeps on the couch?
- And who breaks the silent treatment first, apologising and begging for a hug?
- Who breaks down into sobs, saying they aren’t worth it and why are you still here? And who is the one that hold the other, tells them they’re beautiful and that it’s going to be okay, because at the end of the day some stupid fight shouldn’t ruin years of smiles and happiness?
- Is the makeup sex hard and rough and loud pinned up against the wall, biting and sucking marks into each other’s necks because this person is mine dammit
- Or is soft kisses and apologies, gentle caresses and touches? Is it telling the other they’re beautiful and amazing and deserve to be loved?
Because lets be honest, relationships aren’t perfect, but what’s perfect is putting all that aside and loving each other no matter what
