Two years ago today, the Marine and I decided to make it Facebook official and actually start dating one another exclusively. It took a lot of work to get to that point alone, but there hasn't been a moment I have regretted it.
Now two years later, I'm so amazed by all that we have accomplished together, as a team, and as individuals. We have had plenty of struggles thrown on our plate that many relationships don't experience, especially teenage relationships (at least 50% teenage).
Let's be real. We suck some days. We fight and want to stab each other in the kidney. Happens often when you put two extremely stubborn people together. We know it happens and we accept it. The part that matters is how we handle it, and we actually do pretty well with that. We have been put through some crazy intense things this past year and we are still standing. Leaning on one another to get through the days, but standing, we are!
We aren't guaranteed a happy ending, but we are working together towards one. We aren't perfect. We struggle, flounder, and fight each other. But we love each other. We forgive, cherish, and fight for each other.
This is what I ask of you:
Watch us grow. Teach us lessons that we need to learn. Show us secrets. Help us. But most of all, love us through every day. Every struggle. Every smile. Love us.
We are just two kids who can't seem to leave each other alone. Two kids in love. Two kids who aren't exactly kids anymore. And you guys, you're the ones that we pull strength from when the days apart stretch into weeks and months.
I love you, Marine! :)
I have loved the time we have gotten together. Cherished that time more now than ever. I cannot wait to see everything we have in store for us. I love you more than the stars in the sky.
