Finally, I realized: I loved him in the same way I loved the rest of my family. A comforting, stable love that would still be there, no matter what he did or didn't do for me. When I was with him, it felt like "home." "<br /><br />Yes. Beautifully said. Where our story differs a bit in the minor details, this was how it went down.

Boyfriend feels far too <i>casual</i>. I mean, <i>everyone</i> has boyfriends, but <i>mine</i> is special. But there isn't a word that's... powerful enough.<br /><br />I actually really like the term <i>fiancee</i>, and I hate <i>husband</i> so maybe I should just stay engaged forever. (We're effectively engaged, just no official ring or anything :P )<br /><br />"<i>And deep down, I'll be honest-- I didn't want people to judge me for getting married in my early twenties. I didn't want them to judge me as naive.</i>"<br /><br />This, too. I get a little alarmed to see all the people I went to high school getting married and having kids - when they're <i>my</i> age, 21 and 22. <i>Marriage</i> is a thing grown-ups do, and I don't feel like a grown-up yet!Srouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631824360901633608noreply@blogger.com
