Cory and Topanga

Imagine living your entire life, just waiting for the Topanga in your life to show up unannounced while being anything less than Cory Matthews.

When I look back on my life, I realize I have been full of shit for majority of it. I always have acted like I was a part of some, ¨Boy Meets World¨ sitcom, but in reality I was always too terrified of the commitment game from the beginning. My history proves that I have only ever really been satisfied by having things go my way and more importantly, if my flaws were not the ones that were highlighted. Now, my partner’s flaws were always fair game for me to try and work on, but heaven forbid anybody expected me to change for the better. I was already the one that was prepared and if anything, I was the catch. I was a blessing and damn whoever did not believe that because eventually, they would figure out that I am the catch.

Hindsight 20/20, I was really tripping. While I am not exactly a piece of shit or anything, I am in no way ready to be the Cory Matthews to any Topanga. As I rewatch the show (thank you Disney+) I realize something that every young guy should start realizing, the fact that Cory was still never really worthy of Topanga, but he kept working for her. Maybe, just maybe, you could have the Topanga in your life already, you just haven’t figured it out yet.
