I'm not saying I'm in a position that will end up settling but just out of curiosity... what does it mean to settle for someone?
like does that mean, you're not really in love with that person? or is it like it's not hot passionate love? or settle with someone rather than spend the rest of your days alone?
I mean the person I want to end up with, I want to be happy. like I know he loves me and that I love him.
personally, I'd rather be alone and content than be with someone, who doesn't necessarily give me the spark but keeps me from being alone.
make sense?
caveat: I'm not saying a "spark" is the only reason to be with someone either. it's the whole complete package, per se...like friendship, love, commonality, but also difference to be two separate individuals that make a complete union together.
I want to be with someone not because he needs me but because he wants to be with me. likewise, I want to be with someone because I want to and not because I need to.
