Ready? Here goes.

  • If you could spend one year of your life in perfect happiness with your significant other but afterward would remember nothing of the experience would do you so? If not, why not?
  • If you were happily married or committed to a significant other, and then met someone you felt was certain to always bring you deeply passionate, intoxicating love, would you leave your spouse or significant other? What if you had kids? What about the shared home and mutual bank account?
  • Who is the most important person in your life? What could you do to improve the relationship? Will you ever do it?
* Writers will retain rights to submitted essay.
