a year ago today, at this moment, i was headed to the store to buy a bunch of roses to deliver to my best friends [and some of their moms!]. i spent my day driving around town with hand-written notes, dropping off valentines and flowers to the first loves of my life. i was alone, physically, but i felt happy and content the entire day, knowing i was surprising people i loved with something pretty and unexpected. that night, i went to dinner with james. i knew he was going to ask me to be his girlfriend that night, and he did, but what i didn’t know was what that night was going to turn into. a year later, i am head-over-heels in love with my boyfriend and couldn’t be happier. i knew we’d have fun together, and that he’d be good to me, but i couldn’t even begin to imagine the extent of how amazing it would be. i don’t know what i did to deserve this person, but i just spent an entire year smiling, laughing, and being treated better than i ever have in my whole life. people say to wait, because something good will come to you, and to be honest it sounded like a load of shit to me—i never thought something like this would exist to me, and i had stopped caring that it would. we’re already a year in—or a year and two months, if you count the unofficial dating—and i cant believe how hard i laugh with this person. how i miss him by the time lunch rolls around, even though i woke up with him at breakfast. how much i trust him, and how much i know he loves me. so id like to say happy one year to us, and i cant wait to see another year fly by with my amazing boyfriend, because im finally getting everything i ever wanted and i could not be happier today.
