7 years ago - love at 18

Tonight I was trying to remember what my old blog was. You remember, Xanga? Did anyone else have a Xanga that they wrote their teenage angst in? I somehow found the one I had been writing in since 2003. Talk about a flash back. So many things that I forgot about were written to the world on there. Something I wrote a lot about was Eric. Reading through the entires, I can't help but to be taken back to 2005/2006 when we first met, first started dating, and first started falling in love. Here is a post I had wrote about Eric. I'm mostly posting this to poke fun at myself. Did I really talk like that? Good lord, thankfuly hopefully I don't write like this anymore.

I would like to inform all of you, that I am absolutely head over heals in love.

you all can say what you want but i know my feelings and none of you can change that.There is something about him that makes me so comfortable. Something about him and certain things that while they are happening i catch myself thinking "i could see being like this in maybe 10 years." and its the truth. I honestly think i have found the guy i want to spend the rest of my life with. its funny because even his mom has told him that she thinks we are going to get married. its adorable. I dont want to look too far into the future because anything can happen. but to have his mom say that makes me smile. Eric does things for me that i cant even explain. he is always there for me and never judges me. i have never met anyone else like him. he is mine. and always will be. go ahead and call me a fool, im sure some of you think that. but im sure of the fact that when you meet the person you are supposed to spend the rest of your life with, you know. and you just get a certain feeling. and i know with my heart...that this feeling, is exactly that. and i will do everything i can to make "us" work. i dont want to let this slip away.

Eric, I love you.

always & forever"

Now, looking back and knowing where I am today it makes me smile. 8 years later and my heart was right. I'm exactly where I need to be.
