I have never been in a healthy relationship, and I just want to celebrate that I found someone who is genuinely right for me. I don’t have many people to talk to about that… I want to keep this relationship sacred I guess.

In the past I experienced a sudden lack of effort after a few months, people who made me feel like my basic needs were too much, and mismatched love languages.

We’ve been dating for almost a year, and I still can’t get enough of him. It’s like I don’t even wanna go to sleep, because I want to spend more time with him! Like I just feel so giddy. I have a massive crush even after all this time. He is so affectionate, attentive, and emotionally in touch with himself… he just fell naturally into my life, my routine, and my heart.

I’ve done a lot of work on myself to get here, and I’m really proud of myself. I am thankful he came into my life at the right time — two years after a nasty divorce. I’d had hook ups and relationships throughout this time, but it never felt like this… it’s just so warm and safe.

I always felt like I wouldn’t find something like that. That I was truly too much and too damaged. Through therapy and time I’ve discovered that’s far from the truth.

Anyways, thanks for reading. <3
