Day 7: My Number One

Someone Who Has Made Your Life Worth Living

That would have to be my cat, Jasmine.

Just kidding.

It's actually this guy, right here.

I've known him since I was 15. We met on Gaia. It's a forum/game. I fell for him pretty fast. I admit that my initial attraction to him was his looks.

But the more we talked, the harder and harder I fell. I could talk to him about anything and everything, and vice versa. He went through all the crap I went through with my mom with me. I am grateful that he got to speak to her, and my older sister. I three-way called her once so she could "meet" him when I was 16. As much as I dislike her, I still love her and I'm glad she met him.

After I left for college and moved in with my best friend, he came to visit for Christmas. It was when we officially met. He moved in shortly after that, met my parents the following summer, and asked my dad if he could marry me. We got married a year and a half later, and have now been married for 2 years.

We've kind of grown up together. I've seen him at his most childish, immature moments, and I've seen him at his best. He's seen mine. We know each other. We understand each other. We support each other. We love, care about, and respect each other. We're very fortunate to have met so young, and to be strong enough to get through the rough patches as we get to know not only each other, but ourselves individually. We were meant for each other. "'Til death do we part" is exactly right, physically anyway. There's no messing with our bond.
