I’m feeling the need to make an appreciation post. I haven’t been on here much recently, and this guy is the reason why. He is someone I’ve known casually for several years, but had never really gotten to know. We started becoming good friends at the beginning of this year when we both needed someone to talk to and were generally down in life.
We fell headfirst into a spontaneous relationship, and I couldn’t be more happy about it. He has already made me better myself and change so much without even meaning to or knowing it. I feel happier than I have in years. I seriously cleaned and changed my room after years of neglect. I’m drinking less, getting up earlier, hanging out with friends, and going to do the things I love all the time. I’ve started cooking more often. For the first time in years I’m actively finding and enjoying new music and making art on my own. My stress and anger and depression have dropped to almost nonexistence. I haven’t needed a heartburn pill in weeks. And I’ve been out in the sunshine almost every day. He will never see this post, but I really wanted to say all these things anyway. Thank you Dustin Branch. You mean so much to me already. And we only just started.
