The "Perfect" Relationship

While talking to Kristy this morning, I came up with the ideal relationship...at least for me...

• I would only see her 6-7 months out of the whole year. Maybe 2-3 weeks at a time.
• The only correspondence when we are apart are handwritten or typed letter (no e-mail, text messaging, instant messaging, phone calls only for birthdays--although I'm up in the air about this because the birthday card serves the same purpose--and emergencies)

Now automatically you are thinking, "That is incredibly stupid." and even as I said, I thought so too. The reasons are equally silly:

• There would be all the "missing" that comes with a long distance relationship without any of the tediousness of talking on the phone everyday just to remain in contact.
• How hard would it be to argue over pen and pad?
• I'll be honest. I'm better on paper than I am on the phone.
• You get to skip all the boring "How was your day?" conversations that eventually you weigh down.
  
• With all the technology making everything about getting whatever it is as soon as possible, I miss handwritten letters-writing, sending, reading and re-reading. E-mail isn't the same.
• A relationship like this is pretty easy to end.
  

Ok, even the reasons are stupid. But that's what fantasies are. Admit it, you like it a little bit.
