Yes, it’s been 7 months long…

I have never imagined myself being this much committed in a relationship. Maybe because I am a self-confessed selfish person. I live my life the way I want it. I make - and break my own rules. Until I met this man who made me appreciate life way beyond independence and liberty. The man who has changed me and my ideals.

I was accepted for who I am. I was loved for my imperfections. I was understood for my shortcomings. I was made strong by my weaknesses. It is our many differences that brought us closer to each other - that brought us where we are now.

But just like any other couple, our relationship went through a rough ride. A certain situation made us see the real person within ourselves.

It’s been weeks and weeks of arguments and no-talk. I decided to be silent and he on the other hand, wanted to work things out. The day came when I finally said enough to him - and he almost gave up on me. 

Those weeks and months seemed to be our worst nightmare. But it was during that time when I realized that I was never really that strong - that I needed him to be with me.

Maybe, it was after all worth fighting for.

The rough ride has finally ended and we’re now off to another ride - the ride that will take us to the path of new beginning.

To my man, you never fail to say I love you more… and now, allow me to say this… no matter where life brings us, I know that I will always be in love with the same man whom I said “yes” December 31st of last year.

Yes, it’s been 7 months long, and counting…
