Parents

I find it strange that I somehow come to miss the parents of old boyfriends more than the person I had dated. I just find it so interesting how you come to know them very well and can see certain common personality traits in their sons. They also have so much to offer in terms of conversation and life experiences, which I value deeply. But most importantly, I appreciate them a lot since I don't live in a two-parent household currently and haven't since the age of 8, therefore, the family aspect is what I really enjoy and what I value being a part of.
