day 20- someone you see yourself marrying or being with in the future

I don't think this is a good topic for me. I have always been kinda the disbeliever of marriage. Not that its not right for some and not that I will never get married, but its not a dream to be married. With all the issues with Prop 8 and seeing my good friends being denied marriage because they are gay just angers me and why should I be able to get married when people I love so much are told no. I know its a silly fight, but I don't really think I should get married if everyone isn't able to. (and yes, I know some states have changed, GO IOWA, but its not nation wide and the fight is on going) Its funny, a lot of my friends here and in the midwest want to get married, have thought about marriage and fantasized about their wedding day, or are married. I am so happy for all of them, but I on the other hand have barley been able to wrap my mind around being in a relationship! Dating in general has always given me the fear that it will take away from my art, my career and well, me! I think I am too selfish for it, I like me and me time and I like to do what I want.

With that said, yes I am actually in a relationship right now. I like it. I've met his family, he has met some of mine and we are going strong. It's funny we are such opposites that he has actually admitted to fantasizing about his wedding day and here I am with really no thoughts of "the big day."

I suppose if I were to characterize a future husband (or Partner as I think I would prefer to say) he would maintain some of these qualities:
-Smart
-Passionate
-Unique
-the ability to make me laugh
-caring
-understanding of my art and passionate about his own future
-has goals
- Family oriented (not with kids in mind at this point, but family like is close to his parents, grandparents, siblings etc)

umm yeah, that seems about right. I am sure there are plenty more (cause I am needy!) But that seems like a good start!

who knows where the future will take me, but I am willing to go on the ride. Marriage? who's to say, I do know it is not for me in the near future, I like being in my 20's with no major plan but to dance my way through! I will follow where the passion is though.
