I'm anticipating bringing Autumn home to meet my parents. I wasn't too worried about it, but I know what they're going to say, I've been mulling it over trying to come up with good responses.
I know there are "right reasons" and "wrong reasons" for going out. One of the "wrong reasons" I think they'll bring up is the "mutual usage" thing, where we're just using each other to get off. And I know I'm very selfish natured and so are a lot of humans, but despite that I know I'm not so self serving as to involve someone else's entire life and emotions in a game catering to something as meaningless as my own feelings.
That's impossible, I couldn't possibly treat another human that way, no matter how much we both enjoy it... But it's hard to prove. Words are cheap, I can say "I really have her best interest at heart" all day, but without actions, without good fruit coming from our relationship my words are hollow.
That's why I have decided to keep my mind set on making my reasons "good reasons". It's really not much harder than trying to keep my motives pure, with that goal in mind I won't go wrong.
I won't forget it.
