Its no special milestone or anything, just our 3 month anniversary. I'm just writing a little tribute to the man who has stolen my heart, the better half of my soul, Reid.
Its pretty common knowledge that I've had one too many disastrous run-ins with jerks, whether it be their fault or mine or both. I was reserved but immediately intrigued when a handsome boy sent me a friend request on Facebook.
After the first conversation I had with Reid, every inhibition I had disappeared. There was a little turmoil among my friends when I announced shortly after accepting that friend request that I was flying to Washington to spend 10 days with this handsome boy. But I knew I was head over heels for him. I took a risk. And oh, my, how it has paid off beyond my wildest dreams.
He knows I'm crazy. He's had to deal with my crazy streak firsthand so many times. But he sees right through the crazy to my heart. He knows when I'm justifiably upset and when I'm being irrational, and he knows just how to talk to me during the latter. He doesn't love me in spite of it. He loves me because of it. He knows passion and beauty have a feisty side. He loves me. Period.
From 1,000 miles away he still manages to be near and present and helpful whenever I need him. I can't remember what I did before I had him to lean on.
He is selfless, disciplined, honest, tactful, big-hearted, goal-oriented, hard-working, focused, rational, and both knowledgeable and wise. He is all of the attributes I aspire to. And he chose to love me, so obviously part of him is just as crazy as me. :)
So, for no particular reason, I thought I should proclaim to the world how perfectly amazing my man is. I am honored and humbled that such a virtuous, irreproachable man decided to make me his.
I'm crazy for you, Reid. Thanks for the best 3 months of my life. I can't wait for the rest of forever with you.
