So, I had to find the motivation to write this one, because it is kind of a trick question, so I thought.....but then the more I thought about it, the more I came to the conclusion that it is not as tricky as I thought it would be...so, with that said, I will tell you a little bit about what I mean...
I currently am married to my best friend...my soul mate, an amazing husband who I could not ever compare to anyone else, or ever want to for that matter. I have never felt a love like I feel for him, nor have I ever felt a comfortablity level around anyone else like I feel when I am with him. Being with my husband is like a breath of fresh air, and with each year that passes, I love him more and more...I know I am making you gag....but, this is the honest truth...I am so blessed and so lucky to have him as my husband....so to answer the question of my first love...this is tough, in a way, because I have never felt this way about anyone other than my husband.
However, to be fair, I need to answer the true question which is FIRST LOVE. I did love someone before and I know that for a fact. It was definately a different kind of love, and I still very much care for this person and I do consider this person a good friend to this day. So, what do you want to know about my "first love"?
Well, he's a bit older than me....it was kind of a big deal at the time....because I was 15 when I started dating him and he was 19. He got made fun of for that, and I got made fun of for being a little girl around all of these college kids...but it was all good. We definately made it a little further than most people thought we would. Together for almost 5 years.....this person who is a wonderful, wonderful person, saw me grow up essentially. Literally, saw me make it through highschool, graduate from highschool, and even dropped me off at my first day of college...We did alot together. Went on vacations together, Florida, vermont, Maine, California...had alot of fun, had alot of great talks...had alot of BIG fights....I saw this relationship as being very passionate in every way, good and bad. We were so much alike that sometimes we really clashed and this was not so healthy....Being that we are both very argumentative, in a way...we definately had some crazy times, that really only him and I know about....and I will keep it that way!! But all in all, if I had to do ANYTHING over again, I would not. I have no regrets....and I love that this person was my first love. Everyone should have a first love aside from their future wife/husband, because I truly feel it helps you really figure out what it is that you want in a spouse, and what you do not want, and also makes you a better person to your future spouse. I learned SO much from this person and I am so grateful he was in my life, and that he continues to be a part of my life. He now is married to the love of his life, and she is such a great person as well and they truly were made for each other...it is crazy to me that he seems to have the same type of relationship with his wife now that I have with my husband, even though OUR relationship was SOOO different....But, this is all about learning and living life and really experiencing until you get it RIGHT. I truly believe the both of us have gotten it RIGHT and we are BOTh so blessed to have been in each others lives, but now are even more blessed to have learned so much from each other so that we could be the best spouse to our current spouses. It really is such an amazing thing....
So, with all of that said....my first love was a great one...went to my junior and senior proms, graduations, etc...and is still a part of my life today....he is a great person, a great friend and I am sure a great husband to his beautiful wife. In fact, the both of us will be collaborating our creativeness since he is the best man and I am the made/matron of honor in his brothers wedding. His brother is marrying one of my best friends! Small world....and fun times...:)
So, I hope you enjoyed my story of my first love....I am going to end this with a QUOTE!
