It is utterly incomprehensible how terrible some people are. 

I would give anything to have him show up at my door right now. That would be the best surprise EVER! miss my boyfriend SOOOO much.

I always thought I just didn’t like shrimp. the texture creeps me out. a lot. it feels like biting into an eraser. however, I made this crazy amazingly good cajun shrimp dish for the family I work for… and it was so good I suffered through the texture issue… only to start feeling super weird. like my cheeks are super flushed and my upper body feels tingly and I kinda wanna throw up. Shrimp was the only ingredient that I don’t usually eat, so I’m blaming it on that.

and then sometimes i drink an energy drink too late in the day and watch youtube videos for two and half hours straight.

As EVERYONE who knows me knows, I absolutely adore my boyfriend. Everyone knows how incredibly much I love him and what not. And what I’m about to say might sound bad but nothing makes me love and appreciate him more than hearing how shitty some guys are to their girlfriends, or how little they care about them, or how crazy some relationships are. 

I know my relationship with my boyfriend isn’t perfect. No relationship is. But one thing I cherish so much in Mike is the fact that, even on the worst days, I never question whether or not he loves me. I KNOW it…and he’s made sure that I do. He doesn’t even have to say it. I just know. And that even when he’s upset with me, he shows me respect. Yes, there have been times when he’s been less than happy with me, but he does not belittle me, scream/cuss at me, try to bring me down…none of those things. And the same goes for me, no matter how frustrated or upset I can get, I would never ever dream of trying to bring him down or treat him with less respect and love because of it. Not only does that kind of behavior solve NOTHING, it’s just ridiculous. Part of loving someone is not wishing to hurt them intentionally in any way. 

I was talking with a friend earlier about his insanely (and I mean insane in the very real, psychotically unstable sense of the word) relationship with his girlfriend. They are both NUTS when it comes to their relationship. I mean, every time they fight (and it’s a couple times a week) they both start full out wars against each other. screaming. cussing. saying any and every horrible thing about the other person to try to break them down, breaking their actual stuff…it’s crazy! And whats bad is that I know several couples like this..where at least one person is like this. It’s appalling. Every couple fights of course. but it’s so unnerving to me how many people I personally know that just feel they can treat their bf/gf like absolutely shit just because they’re upset. I just don’t understand it. at all. How does a person function like that? 

I am so thankful for my sweet boyfriend who loves and respects me, no matter the circumstance. 

I just found the most stunningly amazingly beautiful evening gown… I wish I had fancy events to attend. I want it SO BAD. Why can’t adults have prom? haha. Or just super fancy formal events for normal people?

I love that even after 3 and half years of knowing him, I can still talk to him on the phone for nearly an hour and never once get bored, and can’t stop smiling… and I don’t even like talking on the phone! So that says a lot. 

man hearing his voice just makes my whole day! 

also, not related, but almost equally as awesome: chick fil a now gives mints when you order from the drive-thru! And they are those awesome soft mints that people always have at fancy parties and what not. YES!

Not knowing what’s gonna happen is the hardest part. I just want to curl up in his arms and know that everything’s going to be okay.
