Comfort is not the same thing as losing the spark

I used to think comfort was something that arrived after the exciting part was over. I do not see it that way anymore.

Being able to act like myself around somebody creates a different kind of excitement. I am not spending all my energy wondering how I look or whether I said the right thing.

That leaves more room to actually notice the person in front of me.

For me, comfort and chemistry can absolutely exist at the same time.
