This time last year I was unhappy in a relationship that I more or less felt trapped in. I couldn’t leave because I didn’t know how. I tried to trick myself into thinking I was in love, and essentially settled for the life I was living. I settled for a boy who I knew could never give me what I wanted. I settled for someone who called me cold, and heartless, and told me I would never be happy in whatever I do.
Today, I lie in bed and text you about how I cannot wait to start a family with you. Every day and night with you feels as surreal as the first, it’s as if I am living a dream. I still do not feel as though I deserve you because of how incredible you treat me. Not a day goes by where I don’t feel loved and supported by you. You never make me feel bad for my depressive episodes, and you build me up when I feel I can’t go anymore. I can’t wait to spend my life with you. I can’t wait to walk down an aisle in a white dress to you, even though I know I’ll have tears in my eyes and immediately ruin my makeup. I can’t wait to start a family, and raise kids, and grow old with you. You are my forever. It has always been you
