How crazy is it to find the love of your life at 18 years old. Some may call it stupid to say such a thing, that thereâs âno way you can know what love is at such a young ageâ. I canât tell you how many times Iâve heard that very sentence, there are so many different variations of the phrase, are you sure you donât want âthe college experienceâ, âhoney donât tie yourself down, youâre so youngâ, and my personal favorite âwell be realistic it probably wonât work out, but thereâs plenty of fish in the seaâ. Yes, I get it Iâm young, but I donât think age has anything to do with being able to determine the amount of love you have for someone. Honestly I think that college students can be far more in love than 90% of the middle aged married people I know. Because no I donât want âthe college experienceâ if it means going out, getting fucked up, and waking up either alone or next to a different person every night. I would rather go out with the person I love, stumble home drunk together laughing uncontrollably, crawl into our bed and fall asleep in the arms of the same person every night. Loving you in my college years meant, you were my girlfriend, my early mornings, my late nights, my study partner, coffee house date, my pillow no matter where we went, and most importantly my best friend. Tying myself down with you means always having someone in a time where everything around me is changing, because loving in college means being head over heels for someone, itâs the kind of love that is all consuming, that takes your breath away, and makes you think that thereâs good in your world, when itâs filled with test after test, hours of studying, worrying about how youâre gonna work enough to pay your bills and still make it to class on time. You are a breath of fresh air. We love fully, whole-heartedly, and with nothing to lose. She is contagious. In the year Iâve spent loving her I have become a better me than I ever thought I could have been. Iâve laughed, smiled, and felt more love in the 370 days I have known her than I have in years. And then comes the time where weâve just graduate college, moved into a tiny, crappy, little apartment, but that small space is filled with more love and laughter than one could ever hope for. I wake up and go to sleep next to the love of my life everyday, and itâs like living with my best friend. We spend our days exploring, weâd rather spend money on experiences, than things. Our nights are spent building forts, binge watching Criminal Minds, curled up in OUR bed. Life is good, good with you. So yeah maybe it wonât work out, maybe Iâm crazy, but Iâm crazy in love and I think that the best kind of crazy there is.
