I just need to take a minute, and make an appreciation post. I am beyond grateful and blessed for this man right here. Let me give you a back story before I tell you why.. before me and him got together, I was in a relationship with someone for 3.5 years. He was my "highschool sweetheart" I thought we would get married. But, then reality hit me in the face. He was depressed, which wasn't bad bc I was too.. but I overcame mine a little better than he did.. he was always down, never complimented me unless I asked him to, he wouldn't really ask me to hang out. He always wanted to go to his house but I never wanted to, because he wanted sex but I didn't, and I just wanted to avoid situations where it could be brought up.. but anyways. I just started to realize all these things and realize we were not meant to be at all. So we broke up.. but I had lost feelings probably at the 3 year mark.. so when we broke up, it didn't really affect me. So, I moved on pretty quickly. So brings me to my man now. I had met him ONCE, when I was with my ex.. he actually was dating my cousin.. (I say dating very loosely bc she went through guys like she did shirts). She asked me to come and meet him, I didn't really want to but I did. When I saw him, I thought he was super handsome and felt butterflies. But I ignored it.. fast forward to a year and a half later, never giving him another thought or speaking to him, I randomly had a dream about him (after me and my ex had broken up) and in that dream, we were dating. I was like?? That's weird?? So I searched him up on Facebook and messaged him. Since that day we never stopped talking. Anyways. Fast forward to now, in November it will have been 3 years. (famous numbers) and I cannot express how much in love I am... I'll make a second post because this one is getting long lol.
