Almost 3 years!

Holy cow, where has the time gone?! It’s almost mine & Anthony’s 3 year anniversary ❤️ (December 18, 2013). Time is definitely flying by so quickly, it’s crazy to think that we’ve been together for this long... This is MY first long term relationship with someone & honestly, I couldn’t be happier. Anthony has been in a long term relationship with his ex girlfriend before me, so he’s used to stuff like this, but me? No way! 😅 

My whole life, I’ve never been able to keep a relationship for more than 7 months. I don’t know what it was, but I was just always struggling to hold onto someone for a long time. I guess you can say I was just experimenting & I was young at the time, so my mind wasn’t too focused on dating. 😝 I’ve always been in & out of relationships... Well okay, that sounded really bad. They’re not like serious relations, they’re like... For company? I wanted someone there for company, not so much of the love side. 

It wasn’t until my Sophomore going into Junior year, that I “found” someone I wanted to be with for a very long time. Anyway, I met this guy at my high school dance & I was introduced by my good friend (at the time). So long story short, after we met & danced, we started talking & things started to get serious. We got together March 2010. I was so head over heels for this person! I ditched my 7th period class almost everyday to be with him, sacrificed my relationships with my friends & family 😣 I basically gave this person everything I had... Which also meant my virginity. He meant the world to me. I thought I was gonna spend my life with this person. But, one day, out of no where, he decided he wanted to end the relationship... Through MYSPACE. 😑 His excuse was that he wasn’t ready to be committed in a relationship. *sigh* I know. Very stupid reason. I was with this person for 7 months. I spent 7 months with this person, who didn’t even care about me, all he wanted was sex. But I held on because I had hope that he would magically fall in love with me... Ha! I was dead wrong. But you know what? I’m not mad that he broke up with me. Because I was so stupid and so vulnerable, that if he hadn’t broken up with me, I would’ve been stuck with him & his bullshit. So thank you 👏🏼 for saving me the headache! 

After that relationship, I didn’t date for a while. For about 3 years. I was too scared to open up to anyone, guys for that matter. I didn’t want to be taken advantage of again, so I kept my distance for a little awhile. Until Anthony came along... The universe gave me someone who loves me more than he loves himself. 💕 March 2013, I moved back home from Sacramento & rekindled old friendships with our mutual friend... He happened to be there as well. From then  on, we were close friends. Then close friends turned into FWB. Then FWB turned into what it is now; a blossoming relationship 😍 Anthony saw my demons & didn’t judge me for them; he extended his hand & helped me fight through them time after time. It’s like God decided it was time for me to be happy. & I can’t thank him enough for bringing Anthony into my life when he did. He’s shown me what it’s like to be loved & have unconditional support. He’s helped me open up & become a better person 😻 Don’t get me wrong, our relationship isn’t perfect by any means. We have our arguments & our fights, but we always come out on the other side. 

2, almost 3 years together & I still fall for him more and more each day. I’m so blessed to be able to explore new ventures with Anthony. I wouldn’t trade him for the world. ❤️👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨
