Jigsaw Pieces
You go searching high and low for someone to hang out with, or most likely someone to enjoy looking at you naked. The older you get, the more you realise dating is more about finding your person than just lust.
It's about finding someone who is your safe place, who you can be yourself around, who can pick you up when you are down, and who can challenge you to be a better version of yourself.
Someone who picks you for who you are and not for what you bring to the table or what you can do for them. Someone who can make you laugh like a clapping seal with a single look and will hold you tight when you're sobbing your heart out.
Loneliness can make you momentarily crazy, make you think you're not good enough for love, and make you react differently to unwanted attention, but ultimately, you're searching for your person.
I am undoubtedly the luckiest man alive to have found my amazing wife. When she walked into my life, I was not expecting to meet my soulmate. One innocent coffee later, and my life was changed forever, and my many hopes for the past years have become true. Husband, Father and extremely loved.
The best sense of humour, the kindest heart and the best smile around, I have never felt so connected to another human being as I do with my wife, and she makes everything so much better by simply being there. Not every day is amazing, but every day is survivable with the right partner in tow.
Every day I feel lucky to be in this amazing marriage, and in the early days I always thought we fit like jigsaw pieces, but actually my wife is half of my puzzle, and I wouldn't be complete without her.
Get swiping, ask that attractive person out, put yourself out there because you never know how you might meet your missing jigsaw piece.
