The rare, bone-deep comfort of finding a person who feels like "home."
That feeling of coming home is the highest compliment I could receive. You
hit the nail on the head everything you described is 100% accurate. Its a rare thing to find that kind of comfort where the world just goes quiet and you can finally kick off your shoes and breathe even for a second...
(As we know how quiet the
outside world was lol)
I saw that peace in you, too. Watching those shoulders relax was just as powerful for me as it was for you. I felt that heavy thing you were carrying and I wanted you to put that down and relax into me.
The part that thought this would never happen, i saw that part and the asked this question first on...
But here’s the thing, that vulnerability was like a door. It was
incredible that we opened it then but if one person walks through and the other person
immediately shuts the door and hides back in the hallway, it gets confusing.
When you share that level of soul-recognition and then retreat into silence or surface-level talk, it’s tough. It can make the other person wonder if the "home" they felt was actually just a temporary stay.
Hiding those feelings afterward doesn't just create distance...it can really extinguish someone’s confidence in the love they felt. It’s hard to trust the 'breath of fresh air' if the air gets cut off right after.
I’m all for keeping things light but
I hear you loud and clear. Depth isn't just a one-night event, it’s a practice. If we want US then being real has to be the default not
the exception.
PS.
By the way I like your swaps, its so good to talk about the other's. We both need more soul
recognition ❤️
