Valentines Day

It's Valentines Day tomorrow. So this is my valentines day special. I want to share something dear to my heart.


The story I am about to tell you will be brief, but my point is, sometimes things aren't as they seem. I hope my story will give those confidence who feel they may need it.


I have been with my partner now, for 3 and a bit years, the time has gone so fast. When I was young, I didn't think myself to be desirable, good girlfriend material, too clingy. As I mentioned in a previous blog I said I felt a bit self conscious back then. Anyway, whenever I used to get a boyfriend, I was always so desperate to be around them, yet so nervous when they were there. I had butterflies so much when they looked at me, I ended up feeling sick or with pain in my stomach (I fell a bit too hard). HOWEVER. During a history class, I was speaking to a friend from the year above, we weren't close, but we were friends. He had another friend in the class who we ended up talking to. We ended up bonding over music tastes and ended up closer friends.


Its funny to think back to these days, I wasn't sure about him at first, and the funny part was my first thought when I saw him which was: "Wow he's hairy". (He was the only boy in that year with facial hair I don't mean body wise). This boy was sweet, kind, always looking for someone to speak to.


When we began to be 'us' it wasn't like anything else I had experienced. I wasn't nervous or worried. I still got Butterflies around him but I felt... Safe.


This was just a quick story of the beginning of my relationship with my dearest boyfriend. This was to remind people that first impressions don't change your opinion on the person themselves, love should never be based on just looks, they have to have some personality or there's no point. It is also to point out that people should feel relaxed with their partners, remember to smile and always be yourself.




*Side note - Sorry this has been such a short one guys, been out after today and only got back a half hour ago and I'm knackered. Will be a better one next time. Just know that if this doesn't make all the sense it could - I'm super tired.
