A little over a year ago, I met a guy named Ryan through a mutual friend of ours. When going to meet him I had no idea that I was going to fall head over heels almost immediately upon meeting him. He was very quiet and so was I at first. But one thing led to another and we texted and talked online. Hung out a few more times and we both realized that we had an extremely strong connection with each other. It was strange to me at first, because I tried to reason with my heart and didn’t want to believe in love at first sight. But that’s exactly what it was. I have watched a lot of my friends get hurt, and I myself have been hurt in past relationships; so I was extremely scared at first getting into this one. But I am so glad that I chose to listen to my heart instead of my head. We have certainly had our ups and downs, and we still get frustrated every once in awhile. But we are learning together because certainly anything worth having is worth fighting for. This week will be our one year anniversary. We are celebrating by going to Cedar Point, which was the first actual date we ever went on. I can’t imagine this past year without him, and I don’t want to ever think about my future without him. He is my everything. That is as simply as I can put it. He is the reason I get up in the morning so I can see him lying next to me, and feel his arms around me. Every morning and every night, with every kiss I honestly fall more and more in love with him.
