Well, this is already a saga for the ages, but since I have a certain special someone on my mind all the time, I thought I’d contribute my perspective on what love looks like from the perspective of a half-baked young adult.

On the one hand, @sarah-inkdragon, experiences like hers are very much real, no doubt at all. But there are also romantic relationships where the pair are that couple – y’know, the one where they can’t stop making eyes at each other and make disgusting kisses in public. At least, that’s how it can look on the surface. My girlfriend and I are used to long-distance, but we certainly don’t like it that way – we dream of the day that we can put rings on each other’s fingers and stop keeping our distance. And even though we’re incredibly silly and physically affectionate on the surface, we also deal with serious matters with appropriate seriousness. For all of our external silliness, both of us are bound together by a mutual desire to be ever-purer in Christ, to grow closer to one another by growing closer to Him who saved each of us.

We are lovers, sure; we definitely want to get married – but before we were lovers, we were best friends.

So that’s another type of relationship. 😛

Hope that helped.
