The First Of June
To me, that’s when my real life began.
Meeting you and making memories made me the man I am today.
You’re why I can keep doing all this.
HOW IT ALL STARTED
It might have been a long time ago, but we were seriously in the fucking trenches when we were long distance.
It’s funny because we thought we were so grown in our unique situation. It’s almost easy to reminisce and romanticise the days when we were 2 trains and a bus ride apart. We were kids living our own little relationship routines. Sometime’s it’s easy to miss:
- Falling asleep over video calls.
- Screensharing anime & TV shows.
- Missing someone, knowing that they miss you too.
- The comfort of a good night & good morning text.
But now that I live with you ?
Every day, I come home to my best friend, I get to sleep in a bed with your warmth, I get to be around “My Person”.
HOW IT WENT
I know “time flies” is just a fucking excuse for people with zero attention span until you came along (now it’s like – a bit better). But really tho five years; gone in a blur of every zoo, aquarium, and museum in the South, two countries, and another flight lined up. My brain is designed to learn and forget info as fast as possible, but somehow, but I never want to lose even a moment of you. That’s why I made all this:
How you changed MY life
The Girlfriend Effect Is Real
I’m not sure if you remember, but when we lived in our first apartment, we were heading off to a restaurant, and I almost left the house in trackies. You made me turn around and get changed again.
You make me want to be better. Not just because you told me to. But because I one day, want to be the person that you deserve. Quite frankly, you deserve the world, and more.
One day, I’ll be the man that gives it to you on a platter.
(But seriously I was a fucking mess before you came along).
Everything i love about you
If I really wrote everything on here, servers would crash.
I’m enamoured by you. I’ve always said that you’re the kind of girl artists would have begged to paint, and that you’re the type of woman they write books about (and I don’t mean the DSM-5).
Sometimes, like a twat, I forget to remind you how important you are to me. So, if in doubt, I’ve made an all-in-one place for you to revisit in case you forget.
Core Memories
After 5 of the best years I’ve ever had the honour and privelege of sharing with someone, we’ve done some pretty cool things along the way – things that most people won’t understand are special and unique to us. I don’t know anyone as obsessed with Giraffes, FNAF, or any other sort of taste in ’tism. So, naturally, we ended up doing things that are special and bespoke to us. The little moments, the big moments, the odd moments, I’m glad to have shared them with you.
