as long as i've got my suit and tie..

"If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends." - Orson Welles

Above and beyond, that's what we tend to do, we've got our "suit and tie" mentality when it comes to first dates. Our second and third; they're never as intriguing, as intense, as nerve wrecking. It's really interesting to view these strange habits. Funny how it's always been like this, how we struggle on our first dates; fumbling through our selection of cologne, selecting the right songs on our ipods, trying to figure the right places to take this person, just the simply trying to impress.

What we find in ourselves are all these self motivating task being setup by us in order to try and grasp the situation. We're struggling hard, but what we find is we are excelling to become greater for a person than what they know of us. Impressing his or her heart in order to leave something lingering in their minds, their thoughts, and their hearts.

What I find we however struggle with is those simple second and third dates; we begin to become complacent, simply because we're use to the person. It's noticeable even when relationships become long term from 2-3 years even. We're bored of the person, that spark of madness, that spark of energy which made them love us so much has withered away, we're lazy and such. Though honestly; these days, I feel as if with certain life lessons, I would not want to lose someone I've tried to impress so much and so sincerely.
