Talks

As relationships progress, past the initial bonding, they can go two ways. They can get stronger and share more and more, or they can weaken and fizzle and come to an end. After realizing just how much Chloe and I have in common, and how well we get along, our relationship began to grow, and deepen. Although we both claim to be awkward in conversation at times, have trouble getting out what we really want to say, and even struggle to form words correctly, we have never had a problem communicating with each other. I have always felt like she understood my point, what I am trying to get out, and how I feel. Sometimes, it takes no words, just a look or a gesture. This makes conversations effortless.
It is also important in a friendship to be able to be yourself. To be who you are, to say how you feel, and to feel accepted. I feel that we have always been able to do that. There is no wall. We are free to play and laugh and say what we want.

We have shared so many silly, outrageous thoughts. Our conversations, to outsiders, would sound insane and maybe even like pure nonsense. But that is where we feel free. We can let those absolutely outlandish thoughts out and turn them into serious discussions or simply laugh at them together. Many times, a thought that seemed too strange or insane, surprisingly ends up being exactly what we were both thinking or what we had both thought before.

It is such a comfort to be understood. To not have to try. To be able to express every thought without worry. To have someone who KNOWS you.

Love,
Cassie
