Over the weekend a few friends and I got together to just hang out and get some work done, that didn't happen. Rather, a fairly heated topic came up and we without hesitation tackled it head on. Mr. Cool Guy vs. Mr. Sweaty Palms, which is better for us women?
One of the two people I was with were one of my dear female friends, she and I being in our early to mid 20s (can't disclose our exact age) were basically told by our male companion that we were hopeless to find everlasting love that would make us completely happy.
Our male friend then began to tell us how women have been bamboozaed into thinking "the spark" was important and crucial to further a relationship. I for one have to still stand by my opinion and stick up for "the spark"! Going on with his point he then began to tell us that the socially awkward kid who hides in a cubical and gets sweaty palms every time you speak to him is the our JACKPOT!

After a lot of time past and sheesha was smoked we all came to agree that a spark is necessary to further a relationship. We even went further to break it down into 3 different kind of sparks
1. Pure Physical Attraction
He/She walks into a room and catches your eye immediately. It could be what they have one, their biological make up, beaming confidence, etc.
2. Fall In Love Spark
Over a period of time you get to know this person and you get that fuzzy feeling of joy whenever they're around due to substance. You like the way they laugh, their humor, their smile, their intellect, etc.
3. Everlasting Spark
This is the spark that we all strive to achieve but very few do (we see this with a few of our parents). This spark is the one that you get after 15 years of marriage and 2 kids later, simply waking up next to this person makes you happy.
Now my argument was that spark 3 is dependent on spark 1 and/or 2. Let us know how you feel!
