Honestly: What is it like?

What is it like to have somebody love you? I mean, somebody to help to build you up, hold you when you're down, support you when you're unsure. Someone who you can trust to be there for you and want what is best for you? I so want to know what that is like before I die. What is it like? To have somebody who inspires you to do those thing in return, and provide and receive companionship? Please tell me what that is like. I'd really like to know.

It's awesome but there's a price to pay. Always.

@SW-User for the op maybe you could elaborate on the potential price?

@CestManan It will cost you a bit of freedom. There will be times of pain and consternation. You have to give up a piece of yourself. You have to do the dishes occasionally. ❤

@SW-User those would be manageable if that's all it cost to be in a relationship. Too often one person wants to enter the others life and flip their entire world upside down and then just walk out one day for no apparent reason. I think the original poster and a lot of other people who want relationships have this fairy-tale image of what it is like but reality is not even close to what they imagine
