I’m so thankful to have you.

I know that we argue and I know that things get really complicated… but that’s okay. Why? Because I’d rather face these things with you than someone else. And because we always seem to bounce back from all of it.

I do admit that the differences in our personalities can be hard to work around, but I was told that life’s beauties are in the differences and not the similarities. Also, I’d rather focus on what you’re doing right than what you’re doing wrong.

It’s difficult for both of us because I haven’t been in a relationship since high school and neither have you. But even when you had one back then, it wasn’t for very long and it was nowhere near the level that this current relationship with me is at. I’m your first in a lot of different things and you’re the first person I’ve been with where everything feels real.

We haven’t been together that long and this is just the beginning, but I know that we both share the desire to be with each other for a very long time. With that in mind, we can get through these complications without any of it affecting how strong our feelings are.

I’m not going to take you for granted and like I said… I’m so thankful to have you.
