Been with my wife for 11 years now. Married 6.
I wanted to make a post, as when I ever discuss it in real life, I discover how much negativity there is in the world when it comes to people and love. So, I often find people either accuse me of wrong doing leading to my behavior, or that is just over made up.
Being said, my wife is the light of my life. I came from a very checkered past, which has made me a ârough around the edgesâ kind of person. I am deeply flawed, and make mistakes often. I am hot headed and quick to anger, I am selfish, I am egotistical and short ago, I was fine with all of it. Until I met my wife.
In the time I have been with my wife, I have watched countless time, life serve her up the most raw and short sided of deals. True tragedy, health issue, parenting trials, anxiety, depression, and a complete loss of self at one point. In each of the trials I have seen her grow stronger, more caring, deeper lover and overall better person. Over years of watching this, it has always filled me with a believe if; I have the love of a person this wonderful, I myself can be the same.
We had gone through a rough spot, and didnât think it would work out early in our relationship. I almost lost her 10 years ago. When she gave me another chance, I married her the second I could. From the day we got back together, I made a promise that I would be someone worthy of the love I had earned. Over the years she has help me to become the best version of myself, she helped me to learn to love myself and understand I could fail, and it did not make me less of a person deserving of love.
Recently, after our 6th wedding anniversary, while on a vacation, I had a break through. We have had some sexual hang ups in our married and everything finally broken into place for us on our trip. In doing so, I have found I am even more in love with her than ever before. After this all happened, all I could do, all I can do now, is think about her and how happy everything is. It is almost scary how wonderful I am seeing everything. Everything felt perfect, then with the additional of a deeper intimacy between us, the pit of my love feels endless.
As a result of this breakthrough, I have been inspired with romance and love I am wanting to shower her in constantly. I have made some changes in our routine to ensure we are maximizing time together. I am currently planning every week small dates, with romantic jesters and really trying to charm her again. Lately I have felt like a teenager in love. It is crazy to me, to think I ever found happiness like I have in the completeness of my life with her. She is the most loving, caring, compassionate person I have ever known. She is a wonderful mother to our children, a wonderful friend to those lucky enough to know her and overall a good person, who puts good in the world when they can, and does everything in their power to not put bad out. Every day, I awake more in love with this woman, than the day before. Even when tired I easily find the energy to give her my best.
I donât often meet people that have a marriage like mine, when I talk to them. The thing is, I believe, if people could find even half of what I have, I would have a hard time thinking the world would be so heartless sometime. Thanks for the posting area, I am taking her out tonight, and I am overwhelmed with excitement and joy. I needed some place to just gush about this person. I work hard to earn it, but I just always feel so lucky and blessed. Cheers to anyone who knows how I feel here. Live life, and love hard, it saved my life so many times. Be good to each other. Thank you wifey, you are the greatest.
