Today is my one-year anniversary with the world’s most wonderful girl. If someone told me a year ago that I would make it this far with her — or anyone in general — I wouldn’t have believed them because, as everyone knows, relationships are hard things to maintain. Being in a relationship means that you don’t care about just yourself anymore. That’s not how it works. Sometimes, you have to give up the things you want in place of what your partner wants, and after all this time, I’ve learned that.

Julia has been nothing but a blessing to me. Without her, it’s easy to say that I’d be a lot more fucked up than I am or ever was before now. This is the girl who took the problems that were destroying me and simply said, “No,” and did away with them because had she not, they very well may have killed me. She gave me faith in my future and faith in myself to get me through what was going on and now, so many months later, she’s still the one thing I believe in most.

She’s the light and love of my life and most certainly the person I want to settle down with. We’re homely people who don’t want much — only each other — and that’s all I’ve ever wanted. She’s the only girl I can see myself loving long-term, and after a year, I feel like I can say that without fear of someone calling it silly “teen love”. Julia is my baby and I love her more than anything or anyone else on this planet.

Happy anniversary, baby. I love you.

they say the best weapon is one you never have to fire

I RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE

I PREFER THE WEAPON YOU ONLY HAVE TO FIRE ONCE

THAT’S HOW DAD DID IT

THAT’S HOW AMERICA DOES IT

and it’s worked out pretty well so far

My baby and I watched the Gay Game of Shadows or whatever it was and AH it was so good.
