what do you talk about when you've talked about everything else... when you already know their favorite color... what makes them laugh... what makes them cry... touchy subjects... things that get them excited... places that they would want to go... what do you talk about when every question that you think about you already know the answer to... when every question you think about asking involves the future... where every question you think about becomes not just a one person answer but requiring two answers... its not that you have ran out of things to talk about... you've just talked about everything regarding yourselves... but now all you can and want to talk about is each other... questions such as what things have you not done with each other... places you have not gone with each other.... sure i've been to California, New York and other states with my family... but i haven't been there with the person that i would want to be there with... stand in the middle of time square holding her hand... on the coast of one of the beaches in LA... eating and enjoying the white sands of Hawaii with the one and only... its like once you have found the other... you want to relive everything over again to show them and let them know the feelings that you have felt before feelings that you would have wanted to share with them but did not know them yet... all the times you were in a romantic place and thought to yourself... man it would be nice to share it with someone special... that's your chance... and that's only thinking about the places you've been to... not to mention your significant other will have hundreds of places to go... places where they have wished to share those moments with that special someone... i don't think conversation would ever run dry... because all we would talk about after we're done talking about ourselves is talking about the "us" and the "we" and the "our"... we do this because we want the other to be immersed in our lives... to feel what we have felt... to cause a sense of closeness between to hearts... two souls... i forget which philosopher said this but it was something along the lines of "one can only learn through experience" and i believe that's true... so take your significant other to a place that you've been before... maybe its a lake where you like to do your thinking... or a playground where you used to play on when you were little... it does not have to be extravagant because by just bringing them there will make it all worth it...
till then...beImmersed...
