i just want to appreciate the fact that...
1. My boyfriend became my boyfriend after knowing me for 2 weeks.
2. The only reason it became “official” was because I went to his family cookout and his dad was like “So this your woman that you been telling me about” and I was like “oh I’m your woman huh?”
3. We were both exhausted from life in general and avoiding relationships at all cost.
4. We did not like each other when we intially met. (through a friend)
5. This is the first time either of us have tried a long distance relationship and it’s been easier than we thought.
6. We are now 8 months in.
7. I’ve told him every ugly thing about me - the things I regret, I’m ashamed of, that make me cry.
8. We still send each other long ass paragraphs in the middle of the night... he even sent me a care package with a hand written note.
9. I make Pinterest boards about what our future kitchen and laundry rooms will look like.
10. It still feels fresh, even 8 months later. He still makes me nervous, i’m still excited when I see him even if it’s just on FaceTime, and there’s still so much we have to do together.
