8th monthlyversary

It’s July 26th 2010 and today is my eight-monthlyversary for me and my boyfriend. So happy anniversary for us, I guess! :D

For me, personally, 8 months is just a short time. I mean if you still go on together with the same person, you’ll spend your LIFETIME with him/her! So 8 months is nothing. But this past 8 months is really really tought me to appreciate what I have. I’ve been through hurricanes in my love life, I loved someone but I never got happiness - something everyone deserves when they fall in love to each other. But then here come this man. I never knew where the love came from, but it happened! We are formerly best friends who used to hang out together but ended up with being a lover. It’s kinda weird at the beginning, you know, changing your setting from best friend to lover.

But from time to time, all I realize is this: that in a grown up relationship, you must found not only someone you really love, but also someone you comfort with, someone you really trust, and someone who can be you best friend and partner for a lifetime. I am lucky enough to found a man with those criterias :)

And this man of mine, he is not perfect. He sometimes can make mistakes, make me upset and else. But in the other side, I know he loves me in the way I never imagine. He knows my favorite foods, he knows my favorite snacks, he knows my favorite drinks, he knows every details about me! It really took me by surprise :)

When I am mad to him or sad or in a bad mood, he try to hug me. By the time he did it, I knew I couldn’t be mad at him anymore. When I am hopeless and I need someone I can count on and NO ONE is there for me, he is the one who show up and become my personal hero.
What I love the most from him is when he said to me that he loves me the way I am. So I don’t have to pretend to be somebody else. Well, I can’t pretend to be somebody else though - he already knew me for years as best friend!

I realize that love can change anytime, people do change everytime. But I do really wish that this particular love, this particular man I know may never be changed. I really wish he is going to grow up better in everything, but still I can recognize him as my best friend, my great boyfriend, someone I can count on and trust, and as someone I am sure I’m going to spend the rest of my life with :)
