You know, I’ve been obsessed with relationships since I first went to school. How about you? Do you wish your relationship was different? Or do you just wish you were in one?

These are all things we can talk about on this blog. I’m so anxious to hear from you and I hope you’ll comment on the Relationship posts here. Together we can build a body of knowledge and find what we are looking for. It’s out there — of that I am sure.
