Early this month, we turned 6 years old. Between my man and me, I was the less optimistic of this relationship at the onset. I almost placed my highest bets that our relationship will only last for a good 3 months, 6 tops. Although I had generous hopes of what this relationship will turn out, I was not really all for it. I had trouble trying to decipher him at the onset that it was only after we reached double digits that I started really feeling a little comfy and secured. It was odd, yes?
During all these years, we faced all sorts of troubles (some were almost larger than life). We had our unimaginable fights really worthy of a Nobel or Pulitzer. No effing kidding. But we’re both good sports, we’re still here. Still Hon and Beb – only better, so much better.
If there is one thing I consider our best trait as a couple is that we bounce back. Sure, we argue and sometimes, dramatic lines are being thrown but we’re handling our issues so much better now. We have grown, realized that lessons are to be learned and whatever issues we face, we tackle them as is – no holding back. I am not surprise why trust and honesty (among other things) contribute well to a healthy relationship.
As of this writing, my other foot is stepping on yet another troubled stream – while I can never foretell what happens next, I am certain that my delicate hands will always find my Hon’s.
I certainly owe much of my growing up to this man whose love is stubborn.
Cheers to 6 years and counting!
