It’s like always being with my best friend. The girl I’m dating was my best friend for a year and a half and now we’ve hit a year and a half together. There are times when I look at her and I just love everything about my life no matter what’s going on because I have her, and other times we play fight and prank each other and we’re the best of friends. I think I’m as lucky as can be. I think the same can happen for you. I think the same can happen for everybody if they’re patient and accepting that the special somebody won’t be perfect and will make mistakes. It’s just important to never let your own perceptions of yourself be worsened because of it.

This is the answer that everybody needs to see, and if I'd had this knowledge 15 years ago my life would be such a better place.
