To The Friend Who Became My Partner

You already knew me so you waited until the time was right.

To The Friend Who Became My Partner
wallpaperinhd.net

How long have we known each other? 1 year? 5 years? Since we were kids back in elementary school? No matter how long we've known each other, no matter how far apart we became, we still managed to create something amazing.

So we start to catch up. We message back and forth, talk about life and the past. We learn about the relationships that didn't work and the things we now want out of a relationship. The funny thing: I've watched you date those people. The ones who yelled at you, cheated on you,treated you like shit.

I've watched all this happen from the sidelines and I was so jealous. You were amazing, wonderful and perfect in my eyes. I always look at the best in people and that's what I could see. I knew you weren't without problems but, no one ever is. You deserved someone who could handle your moody days and could give you the space you needed. They couldn't do that but, I wanted to be the person that could. I never said anything because I didn't want you to get the wrong idea about me and my motives.

So, I kept silent until now. I started to notice that you talked to me everyday. You would tell me what happened during your day. You would tell me your troubles. You started calling me and leaving me cute messages for me to wake up to.

Then we went on our first date. I was nervous as hell but, you kept me calm. We went to dinner where you paid for our meal. Then we went to the movies, you paid for our tickets, and then we kissed in the theater. I took you home and...we became a couple.

Am I worried this could ruin our friendship? Hell yes, scared beyond all control. Do I think that we could have a solid relationship that lasts a lifetime? Of course, and that's how I want it to be.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
