So @missy and @rambo I figured what better time to write a Blog about the the most romantic thing my sweet love ever did for me then on the day of Love itself, Valentine's Day.
So let me start by giving you a little bit of backstory. My boyfriend and I met when we were kids. He moved from Louisiana to California which is where I grew up and we met at a local feed store where we both had a job. We later found out that we went to the same school together and became boyfriend girlfriend, we ended up falling madly in love with each other, or at least what we thought was love at 15 and 16 years old. Come to find out two weeks later his mom had him sent back to Louisiana, which broke my heart. (Picture below is us in high school about a week before he went back to Louisiana)
So with that little bit of backstory I'm also going to say that we did keep in touch throughout the years. He was one of the best friends I've ever had, I knew if I ever had any trouble I could call or email him and he would just talk to me.
In early 2014 after a break of us not talking for a little bit he randomly contacted me on Instagram. We said our normal hellos, how are you doing things like that. Well he proceeded to tell me that he is now living in Florida with a few friends and a nice house and has a good job, so of course I congratulated him and said "oh well, so you have a girlfriend then right?" And he said "no actually I don't" in quite a Stern voice. So of course then I asked him why he doesn't have one, and I will never forget what he said to me that day over the phone. He said "I don't have a girlfriend because the only girl I've ever really wanted to be with is you" and I swear I felt that same way as I did when we were 15 and 16 and he said he wanted to be my boyfriend.
So not too long after that conversation we decided even though we've loved each other for the past 10 years we wanted to take it slow. We knew that this relationship was more than just lust because we had never been physical, so we decided that he was going to come from Florida to visit me for a week in California and we would see how things go. Needless to say we had an amazing time together and it was like we'd never had time apart. About two months after he came to visit he ended up moving to California with me. We lived there for about a year and then decided to travel across country to come back to Florida. (Picture below is the second pic we ever took together, and it was when he came to visit me)
We have now been together for a consecutive three years and I couldn't be happier. We've laughed, we've cried, we've traveled across the country, he is my best friend, my soulmate, and my biggest fan, and I couldn't ask for a better person in my life.
So that is my romantic story thanks to my amazing man, thanks for reading and I hope you guys all have an amazing Valentine's Day
