Witty dialogue between each other

Banter: Underrated Fun

Have you liked someone so much that your chemistry with them works with each other? Are you currently in a relationship, and you guys can feel the chemistry oozing? Then, you have to keep reading because, hopefully, you agree with me in this. Married couples apply to this as well.

Now, I haven't been in a relationship with anyone for the last 5 or 6 years and granted; it wasn't really a relationship because we weren't exclusive, and it was in the "we're talking" phase, but still, it was awesome when it happened. I don't know about Linda, but I hope she felt the same way even though she told me she wasn't ready (if you want more details on that, you'd have to read "Linda").

The details on Linda and me

Even though Linda and I weren't in a relationship officially, but we had some great moments together where it felt like our chemistry was oozing from each other. There were even times when it reminded us of a couple in a movie or something because we were hitting from all cylinders regarding how we were with each other. I even told her that she reminded me of Gwen Stacy, and I even saw us doing something like this.

Granted, they're both broken up in this scene, but you can tell that they love each other, and their chemistry is all over the radar.

Here's another scene that reminded me of Linda and me, but they're together in this scene, but it's an emotional one because it's one of those expressions of love scenes. Still, the chemistry is there while the emotions are still high, and I couldn't wait to get to this point with Linda.

Okay, I got a little sidetracked, but damn it; hopefully, you get the point I'm trying to make. Everyone says the best part of being in a relationship is sex or being part of a team or even arguing sometimes. Still me, on the other hand, I think bantering with each other is the most fun and underrated part of being in a relationship. Of course, having a sense of humor is a must because when the mood hits, that's when it's just a fun time.

Keep in mind, I haven't been in a relationship for about 5 or 6 years, but I've had many times where I've had a crush on someone. I always try to turn on the banter when I can because since it's a must that we already have to be friends. Hence, there's already established connection; I feel like if I can be silly with her, then the possibilities of how the conversation goes are endless.

As much as I, myself, would love to be in a relationship, I'm insanely picky when it comes to the type of woman I'd want to be with in a relationship. Not only does she have to have a sense of humor, but her personality has to be lovely, and there's a little bit of a body type that I'd prefer with her, I know that's shallow on my part, but I'm still flexible. More importantly, if the chemistry is there and we have a lot of room to banter, then there's a chance.

I've been through a lot after Linda, and I know some of it was my fault, but still, I want a girlfriend who can keep up with the humor I have and be sweet, you know? Sadly, it seems like that's too much to ask for, but I'm not budging because it always seemed like I was giving up a lot of parts of myself whenever I liked someone and they weren't. I'm no relationship expert, but I know for a fact that it goes both ways.
