this is a mean list, but i want to make note of all the "upgrades" i have received from my previous to current relationship! treated for breakfast/lunch/dinner often

• do not pay for much of anything
• often picked up and dropped off to my home
• doors are opened for me
• food is made for me
• patience with lateness
• the noticeable attempt to work issues out and work on problems together
• respect and sincere care
• no more crazy breakdowns, no more smoking, no more insecurity
• support of school and work
• similar wants in life: children, steady home
• support even if i made more $$
• similar dreams: traveling, loving profession, etc.
• equivalent love of the beach
• sense of humor
• casual and chill personality that allows us to go with flow
• lack of tension
