Hey Everyone,
So today is my boyfriend's birthday, this is pretty exciting stuff. He turned 22 today which is probably one of the least eventful birthday years of anyone's life. After 21 it all seems downhill when it comes to birthday fun anyway. I'll be 21 in September, which is pretty exciting. But this isn't about me.
I wanted to take this moment to talk about my boyfriend and our relationship. I feel like the romance portion of our relationship started around this time last year, when I sent him a birthday card. We had been texting for months beforehand and becoming very close friends, but no one pushed the line until I sent that card. I spent over an hour picking out the perfect card. I didn't want it to tell him that I liked him, but I also didn't want it to scream friend zone. So I chose a card that simply said "Smile!" We always told each other that the other made them smile, so it seemed perfect. Josh tells me now, that it was. That is helped him believe that we could really happen.
Well it did end up happening, nine days later. Our one year anniversary is on the 29th of July, which is pretty damn exciting. I have never been in a relationship for that long! (It's crazy to think someone could stay with me for so long! Probably because we're long distance and he doesn't see me. Haha.) So this is the time of year that I have naturally been looking back on the past year. It's been an absolutely amazing year. I couldn't have spent it with anyone better than him.
I don't really know what the point of this post was, but I felt the need to write it. I am so happy to have spent the last year as I have, and I am so happy that Josh and I are together now as opposed to being friends this time last year. I really do love him quite a lot. He has never stopped making me smile. I hope all of you can find your very own Josh. And never be afraid to take that leap of faith and send that card. You never know, it could just give the right person the nudge they need.
Much Love,
Jenna
