When I look at other peoples relationships I start to find so many reasons to be grateful for the man I have. No, hes not perfect - but we fight to keep it real and tell the truth. We dont hit each other, steal from others or each other. We dont cheat on each other or ourselves. We both own our mistakes 100% and find ways to make it right. We have equal give and take. He is there at the drop of the hat for me no matter what. He doesnt give up when he doesnt understand how to love me or himself - or when I dont know how to love him, or myself! Hes relentless! We prioritize each other and follow through. & weve adapted our lives to fit into the others needs to make it work. We surface the issues instead of denying them and we work through the hardest and most impossible situations with out breaking trust in the most fundamental forms. We keep trust and build trust because even if we break trust? We can trust the other to be honest about it! We are not perfect by any means, but he really is perfect for me. Ive walked the edge of goodbye and Ive never been able to make sense of walking away from the man whos fought for me through all the chaos of life with this type of integrity and honesty. This isnt a boyfriend kind of love, its a family kind of love. Its not supposed to be easy, its just supposed to be worth it! We forced ourselves to have patience and build a solid foundation before we made the larger commitments, and we put in the work to over come the almost impossible odds! (Like an 18 year age difference, Im in a new city, our past lovers and trauma, coming from exact opposite worlds, etc) literally everything has worked against us from day one! But? That only made us want it more! Life is about overcoming adversity - not avoiding it. Hes not the same as me, as thats why I learn and grow so much with him. There isnt a day that goes by that he doesnt surprise me, & Ive certainly never been bored! I guess its all about how bad you want it, knowing how far you can go and asking how far the other person can come in return to meet you in the middle. Past the ideals of right and wrong. The willingness to be vulnerable, shed perspective, to listen and try to empathize even if its foreign to you. Above all, he is my best friend. In my mind? Ive already said I do. Im officially in irreplaceable - irreversible love. Thank you John, you are the love of my life. I cant wait to fight through the messy, and laugh through the beautiful moments with you - forever.
