Not needing each other...

A great relationship isn't about needing each other - it's about wanting each other and choosing each other.  It's about having gone out into the world by ourselves, experimented & tried out different ways of living, dated different people, and then choosing to come back to each other, not because it's the status quo or because it's easy, but because we really want each other and because we know that we're good for each other.  Recognizing that we could be happy by ourselves or with someone else, but consciously choosing our relationship because we're much happier, both in the present and in the future, being with each other.
