It was the day after Valentine day. Things got pretty complicated in short time but somehow exciting. I never thought I would be falling for someone who has a completely different personality. From music taste to our fav books. He likes solitude and tend to withdraw once in awhile to recharge, meanwhile I like being accompanied and talking for hours. I don’t necessarily hate being alone but when things get rough, I prefer to spend more time with my love one.

My first impression was pretty much things would not work out between us because of how different we both were. Later did I find out that we have so much more similarities than we thought. Before we met, all I knew was we both like strawberry more than chocolate for an ice cream topping. I even remember one night we tried to think of other similarities but couldn’t come up with anything.

2 years down the road, I realised that I want him to be my best friend for life. Turned out we both like going to more nature places than cities. We both enjoy sitting down for hours on the beach to talk about things that most people consider very odd. I feel like I always had a good time being around him. The best part of it is I can be my self fully because he is the best supporter I’ve ever had.

Since I was a kid I always had this shallow idea about what my partner should be or have. That’s why I was so disappointed of how ‘imperfect’ he was when the first month I knew him. I wrote bunch of crappy journals about it. It took me long enough to realise that I was being delusional for wanting such a perfect guy. In the end of the day, I love who he is and I don’t want to trade it with anyone else in this world.

With him I feel like I have grown to be a person that I always wanted to be, and I’m so grateful he’s been there since day one.
