In today’s world, the word “loyalty” is warped. This generation doesn’t know the true meaning and importance of a committed relationship, although we may think we do we have nothing more than a foggy perspective.
We take our significant others’ for granted, we cheat, lie, fight and disrespect them. We tear them down rather than build them up. We put them on the same level as everyone else when they should be put on a pedestal.
Every relationship I had been in BEFORE THIS ONE was unhealthy and quite frankly, miserable. But I don’t regret any of them because they made me realize what I deserved was much more than I was receiving. I learned so many lessons and grew from each one I was in, making me the woman and girlfriend I am today.
01/22/18 was the day that Shawn asked me to officially be his, and I was (and still am) the happiest girl in the world.
He has shown me that “the one” is out there, you just have to stop looking in all the wrong places, and maybe even stop looking in general. I wasn’t necessarily looking for a relationship when he came along, I had actually almost given up on them. But, that’s where I was doing something right, NOT looking. From previous experiences, when you “look” for a relationship, you are so consumed in finding someone that you settle. That is one of the worst things you can do. Whatever you do, DO NOT SETTLE.
Shawn has taught me that loyalty and commitment is still out there. He has taught me so many other things like patience, kindness, and most importantly, happiness.
No relationship will be perfect. There will be fights, arguments, disagreements, and ups and downs, but you can’t have good days without the bad. Take something out of each of these, learn lessons, grow as a person and as a couple.
Also, make sure you keep the love alive. Just because you may “have” the person, doesn’t mean you need to stop trying to win them. The little things mean just as much, if not more than the big ones. Be kind, love with all your heart and most of all, stay HAPPY ❤️
