Yes, Jerry McGuire made it famous. But I have to say I believe it was only that way because it's true for so many married couples. He said this to his wife in the context that his "big win" with his company wasn't complete until he was able to share it with her.
How true is that? For in my highest of high moments and my lowest of lows, I want, no I seek out and find dash. He completes me. Even when dash has participated in what is causing my low moment, I want to be with him. I want to fight it out, or wait it out, or have him hold me through it. I want him. I can't imagine it any other way. I knew this even before I saw the movie made it cool to say, that he completes me. :) :) :) And modest as I am :) I believe that I complete him as well.

I think I understand what you are referring to. Even though I have grown so much in my life and am a COMPLETE person myself but there is still a longing deep inside that something (someone) is missing.
When I first married, I believed that one found their spouse and the two of them made a whole. Today I believe that TWO WHOLES make A COMPLETE.
Now if only someone would show me the money!
helping you help me!

... oh and the human head weighs 8 pounds. ;-)
You forgot "you had me at hello."
Did somebody just watch Jerry Maguire again? : )
Yes, well I caught the last 2/3 of it on cable late the other night. I hadn't seen it since it first came out on DVD!
All the little catchphrases in the movie are cute... but they don't really just dress up what is really happening. Love. Choosing to put someone else's needs above your own is a proceess that is both wonderfull and terrifying at the same time.
I know myself ... and I'm a selfish jerk sometimes - so it can be a challenge to complete and be completed. Then again that's the fun of it. T and are "one", but the differences are what define our unity.
I'm glad that we didn't have to go make it through terribly unsatisfying relationships with other people before meeting our soul-mates. Growing up together has let us experience what it means to love as a team. It's Not always perfect ... and sometims being complete can feel like being completely broken - still at the end of the day, I wouldn't have it any other way.
p.s. If you've ever seen C-man with his hair spiked, wearing a pair of glasses ... you'd be waiting for the human head bit every time you met him.
