With time I came to realize that the relationship is "part" of my journey. It will be exhilarating and it will be painful and somewhere in between. There are those that take "one" with them on the whole journey - not sure what percentage of those are truly happy with their decision. If you say - the one - what happens in your mind if it does not work out? It does not have to be failure... it was an experience.. because you would hope there would be the two or three or whatever.
When I married - I did think at the time I would be with him the rest of my life. We were together a decade - no regrets, learned a lot and now pretty sure there will not be just the "one" as the journey continues. But if I do choose the one - for the rest of the ride .. and it works - great!
