ME: You make me want to do dangerous things like wake you up with breakfast. You know why these things are dangerous? People get used to them. I don't want someone to know how to make my coffee half-asleep. Or call at a certain hour because that's what happens every day. I have no idea how to reconcile how much I want you and how much I loathe the idea of being a a habit. Or making you one.
HIM: You're not going to get used to me.
ME: How do you know?
HIM: You're going to get used to knowing me. You're going to get used to interacting with me -- you can't fight those inevitables. That's what happens when people know each other and nurture a relationship. It's the variables and the growth you need to pay attention to. It's the expansion, the exploration, the adventures. Getting used to people is just what happens when you are around those people.
ME: I don't want to be habitual.
HIM: Habitual? It's not habitual -- it's familiar. The difference between habitual and familiar is in whether you take someone for granted or cherish them. If you take someone or your relationship for granted --
ME: It dies.
