Your first love

People say to never forget your first love. The exquisite joy and the heartwrenching pain are essential in building you. That a broken heart helps shape you into the person you eventually become.

I'm sure this is true.

But honestly, I was never in love before T. Partly because we met so young. But also because I was never one of those girls that boys liked. I had girlfriends who had new boyfriends before they got rid of the old one, but I never even went on a date.

Sure, I had crushes. But they were always unrequited. And the only boys who liked me were the ones I didn't like back.

So, T, you are my first and only love. I adore you with every breath in me. Thank you for making my life perfect. Thank you for making me happy every single day. Thank you for our darling boys. I love you.

Happy Valentine's Day.
xx

  2. I'm the same as you. Hubby is my first love, and I love that my view of love was not tainted before this. No broken hearts or weeks of weeping.

    I hope you had a lovely weekend. xx
