JULY II
If you knew me back then, you would laugh at the idea of me getting married. I was one of the most cynical girl among my friends. The champion of all the we-don't-need-men girls. The one who would fatally headbutt the flower bouquet if it was heading in my direction; or chop it off midair with a freaking ninja sword. Or the crazy lady yelling at couples to 'get a room!'
The question is whether I have changed after years of relationship.
Dennis (looking very smug after changing the light bulb in the bathroom): Now you can stop going to the toilet with the flashlight! What would you do without me?
Me: Have less cleaning up to do round the house.
Dennis: Oh burn. (Silence) But you love cleaning up, don't you?
Me: Ha ha
I am not equating needing men with just needing someone to change lights around the house, of course.
I mean, they're good for taking the trash out as well.
If you take him away, maybe I'll find out whether I do need him. So far I can't really tell how much this relationship has changed me. I know we use each other in different ways but ultimately we want each other around.
