As an independent twentysomething, I want a marriage like the Obamas' or I don't want one at all.
I want love to be comfortable yet scintillating and constantly evolving. Even if life's not full of adrenaline-pumping surprises, I still crave a little adventure. And the butterflies should never die, just perhaps calm down a bit. And just when you think I've gotten outlandish with my demands… I want to have all of these things with my best friend.
