Pulling an Anthony

In the Guatemalan English-speaking community, "pulling an Anthony" means that you've just entered an ill-advised long-distance relationship with a traveller that you barely know, but that you have an extremely strong connection to, and then you make long term plans to meet each other in different countries while not really setting in stone any actual relationship goals.

The term's named after a young man who's made a habit of doing this over the past couple of years.

"Hey, Juan. What have you been up to?"
"Well, I've been pulling an Anthony..."
"Oh, dang. What's her name and when are you leaving?"

Power Couple

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.

I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
