Today, at a friend's birthday party, while browsing her profile on the popular dating site OKCupid in the spirit of the aforementioned festivities, we came across an ex's profile. What I realized (aside from the fact that the poor kid is quite lonely), is that over the last two years I have created a retrospective vision of a terrible, monster of a guy who is the worst person you'll ever meet. The truth is, yes, he's objectifying and disrespectful. But people-- all people-- are multilayered. There was a time, before I knew better, that I was head over heels.
I'm so glad that cupid's aim is better these days and that I'm able to celebrate this Valentine's Day with someone who is-- flaws and all-- perfect.
