first glimpse of shine...

"it's just so easy being single," says my best friend who, for the sake of this blog I will call Lil J. In honor of the trashy gem and favorite of mine, Gossip Girl. Lil J just started dating a new guy and 
was questioning if she has been set in her single, selfish gal ways for to long. 
i've been dating the same guy for about four years and except for a few annoyances (his headache inducing car, our little stubborn fights, the dirty black jacket he always wears, and his dislike for doing anything on time) i love it. 
the stability of knowing someone is always there, constant cuddling, knowing someone better than i know myself, and silly, inside jokes are like the most amazing tasting strawberry daiquiri to me: I CAN'T GET ENOUGH. getting presents like these beautiful, fragrant roses and this handmade memory box isn't too shabby either :-) 
 clearly, being in a relationship comes with a hobo bag stuffed and filled to the brim with perks. 

BUT... 
she does have a point. is the bag crammed with everything and anything a girl can want worth the subtle feelings of boredom and hard work that constantly ride shotgun with a LTR? for moi, yes. 

what is your status preference?
