Love

To anyone listening,

"Well, it seems to me that the best relationships-the ones that last-are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship.  You know, one day you look at a person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere.  And the person who was just a friend is..suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with."

When Dustin and I decided to be more than friends, I was scared.  I only knew Dustin as some tall guy in school.  I would go into detail about how that all worked out, how we were engaged in 5 weeks, and how I am more in love with him now than I was the day I said "I do" but trust me, that was nothing compared to the love we have now. I still do everyday, every moment of everyday.  Even on our worst days, I can't imagine my life without him.  He accepts me as myself.  He is the only one that actually knows the different sides of me, the things I talk about, my hopes and dreams and the things that I don't eat haha and still loves me. 

They say most girls have that idea of the perfect man.  He is this prince that comes and rescues you.  They don't say but once in a while you guys might ignore each other because you had a rough conversation.  I imagined a man to protect me, one who wants the best for me, one who lifts me up and tells me I can do anything, who looks at me like the most beautiful woman in the world, someone to trust, someone to laugh with, someone to hold my hand when I'm 80 years old, someone who doesn't use the number on the scale to find me the most beautiful woman in the world..  I found him.  I am one of the lucky ones.  I can't imagine being so in love with anyone else.  I never get tired of him or don't want to spend time with him.  I usually want too much time with him.  He makes me laugh, his arms make me feel so safe that I fall asleep in them, and he is more than I ever dreamed possible.

I am truly in love.  It isn't movie love because it's better and more real.  I was just looking at him and thinking how lucky I am and then I thought how much he would hate a blog of me saying it sooooo I'm saying it. ;)  BUT it's because I love him that I know, even the annoying stuff about me like writing this, he still loves me just as I am.
