More actually—I just haven’t gotten around to posting about it yet

Disclaimer: Cheesy post ahead!

The funny thing about Z and me—we manage to always miss our (I don’t like this term) “monthsaries” (usually because we are intently arguing about something) that the moment we do remember, we both reach this state of disbelief (“Seriously, we’re XX  months old?”) which ultimately transforms to a state of awe (“Wow, XX months!”), which then switches back to disbelief again (Seriously?!). Hehe

I think it’s a good thing—being in a relationship that’s already a year old but feels like it just started a month ago.

I think it’s probably because of all the struggle we both had to go through (individually, and then together) before we got to the stability we enjoy now. Looking back, given how it all started, I wouldn’t change a thing. I truly feel that this has been a relationship that we both worked hard at (finally!) having. Maybe it was because we had such a rocky beginning (isang mahaba-habang inuman!) that everything feels new even until now.

And I feel that it’s a relationship that has changed both of us for the better. I’m not saying I’m suddenly Miss Sunshine, because I do have my dark bratty moments and believe me, he’ll be the first one to point that out, but the thing is…being with him makes me want to be a better person. It’s a stretch and it sure feels like a leap, but it’s one that I’m willing and happy to take.

Call me cheesy, mushy, whatever, but iz true.
