Drama Geek and I spent a week away together, and we’ve lived
to tell the tale. Traveling with him was an experience like none other. I’ve
always hated traveling, especially by plane. Meandering through the airport,
security and making my way to the terminal just feels so encumbering and
claustrophobic. I get so stressed out; I don’t eat well, I don’t sleep well and
I end up ill and ill-tempered.
I warned Drama Geek of this about a month before our trip.
True to form, he heeded my words and made it a point to eliminate my
travel-related stress. He packed for us, dealt with the tickets, directions,
reservations, etc. All I had to worry about was showing up on time. Everything
else was handled on my behalf. It was a beautiful thing. It enabled me to fully
relax, enjoy the time we spent away and get the most out of our trip.
It just further reminds me of what a new phenomenon it is
for me to be in a relationship that feels like a partnership, rather than a
one-sided affair. Imagine that…who knew such bliss was possible?
