Peterhontas once said to Wicked, moving into a relationship was a sign of "growing up", Wicked found it offensive because of the superficiality of such statement - do we need another person to grow up?
Once again we return to the "finding the other half" topic.
Wicked's boyfriend is years younger than her, she's usually attracted to older men but somehow this younger guy is different from the other young guys. She likes it.
Wicked is a complicated bitch, she encountered many men who were compatible to parts of her and eventually broke up when she exposed the other sides of her whom they felt incompatible/insecure of - sex, career, interest, hobby, future goal and etc... Everything that constituted the person she is today and she is proud of it. She is willing to learn new things but the men in the past were not as open minded and wanted her to fit them, true to her form she told them off. With this younger guy, there's nothing for her to worry about in that extend.
For her career, Wicked frequently being invited to fab openings around town. She knows her young boyfriend is not too familiar to them but he is keeping himself open minded. He is searching for his goal in life, she is hitting hard to reach hers. Different stage in life, can it be problematic?
As we get older we get more jaded, wiser with complimentary winkles. But when it comes to happiness, sometime we see 60 yro people looking younger than the 40s, it is simply because they have the best wisdom - keeping mind open while avoiding the most stupid mistakes. The main question should be: How many people can truly achieve that?
Learning to be comfortable with yourself and proud of who you are, regardless of your past experiences. That is the true "growing up". Mentally Wicked's young guy exposed her to a whole new world of comfortness. Comfortable to be herself. And comfortable to explore a territory that she almost abandon - couple-hood.
Perhaps all of us are growing up until the day we die, when it comes to relationship, getting
one is not growing, or dying; it is not grounding yourself and become damply or stuck to a mortgage because it is "natural part" of a person's life... Relationship sometime is just a relationship.
Many times she was told that she is a spoiled bitch behaving like an 21years old. Perhaps her inner 21 yro is dating his inner older man.
