A Long Time Coming.

I love my anniversary. I love being nostalgic and thinking how far my relationship has come since the day I first met my boyfriend. We moved pretty fast. Mid September we started talking (on MySpace WOOOOOO), by early October I had a crush on him and on October 16th we met up and first kissed. It's a funny story really. The same weekend I met Jesse, my mum had 'grounded me' for being naughty and sneaking out of my friends house. As the story goes in my mind (I am sure my mum will dispute this), she was never really good at grounding me- mainly because this was the first time she had ever needed too. So for what ever reason on that Sunday I told her I was going to go meet that random older boy, who I started talking too on the internet, at the park (LOL thanks for not realising the danger to THAT situation mum)...and for what ever reason (she now tries to tell me she knew it was 'fate' she let me go). Instantly I knew it was right. It was never that I knew he would be the person I would spend the rest of my life with...but something inside me instantly knew I didn't want him to not be in my life. By October 23rd he was my boyfriend. Since that day, it's never changed.

Unlike many people who meet their boyfriends young I have never been insecure about my decision. I don't believe 'the grass is greener', I like my grass. It's not that I don't wonder about an alternate life where this never happened, but I know what I have is special and I would never give that up. I haven't been single since I was 14 years old, and I love that. I am so utterly lucky to be in my situation and to of found this so young.

If you had asked me then whether I thought it would have happened this way I would have laughed. I never planned this, but I couldn't be more grateful it happened. 15 year old Jade never would have guessed I would be in the position I am in now. In a way my relationship saved me from a potentially bad future. I remember every moment, every thought and every feeling so clearly and I love that. I love the smile it puts on my face just from thinking about it. Once again, another year down the track I just want to say I love you.
