My goal for the week is to write something that is:

1. Optimistic
2. Linear
3. Has no unhealthy relationships Has a healthy relationship

I have no idea as of yet how I'm going to do this.

The only relationships I find interesting to read about tend to have at least some component of "unhealthy", but that may be just my general anti-romantic leanings (when it comes to fiction rather than own life), so take with a grain of salt... XD

Honestly, one of the reasons I write so many unhealthy relationships is because healthy ones bore me. But a realistically portrayed healthy relationship can be interesting, I think. People in healthy relationships fight. They don't always agree with each other. Their relationships aren't perfect, but they're still healthy.

Hmm... It may be just that I find relationships that aren't my own kind of boring, unless there's some other conflict going on to make them interesting? Because a relationship fight is still kinda meh to me, I guess. Unless there's something else in it to trip specific kink buttons or whatever, but then it's more about reading my kink than reading about the relationship...

And obviously, to each their own.

So far, I'm kind of stumbling the line of "Is this a healthy relationship, considering it's on the verge of falling apart? No one's being abusive or manipulative. There's no codependence." They aren't always happy, but they are sometimes.

So I think I'm getting it right-ish.
