(Photo is because I don’t really have a good photo of the two of us together. Well good photo of me with him)
My boyfriend transferred to my school in our Sophomore year of High School. We were in the same homeroom and the same club, gaming and anime (thus the picture). We talked a lot during the year and I noticed that he was always really nice to me. But the kind of person he was I thought he was that way to anyone. He used to go out with me and my friends all the time just so he would be with me. He was one of my best guyfriends.
During our Junior year, I found out that he had a crush on me, and at the time I didn’t believe my friends who told me so. My best friend asked me if I was spoken for and unsure what to say, I shrugged and she told him (my bf). So everyone continued to tease us about it I thought it wasn’t true even though I had to BIGGEST crush on him but I had heard he was taken one day and I kinda ignored it (later on finding out it was for a DAY). We went on a field trip for our Spanish classes and after it I asked him to walk me to the bus stop, and instead of going to the usual bus stop, he ended up walking me halfway home. We said our goodbyes and went our separate ways.
Later that night, he posts a status on Facebook talking about how he had a crush on a girl. And I was completely heartbroken, thinking it was someone else. But I decided to talk to him and at least say that I would give him support and try to get them together. We spent hours talking to each other because he wouldn’t tell me who it was. Then at 9:13, he admitted that it was me that he liked and I admitted I liked him back. The next day, despite our severe awkwardness towards each other, we talked it out and decided to give it a chance. He left me that day saying “I love you” to me for the first time. That was yesterday a year ago. Today we’re still going on very strong and we just celebrated our 1 year anniversary.
To everyone out there finding love, don’t go looking for a knight in shining armor. Just enjoy life and Love will find you on the way, just keep your heart open. That’s what I did. I wasn’t looking for Love. Love found me :)
