My amazing boyfriend!

OK...... i have resisted writing this just as long as i could. But i think i'm going to go ahead and write it and get it out of my head.

Ummmm my boyfriend is amazing. I met him about 6 years ago (the time differs between us because my memory is better than his....haha). And not long after i started working at his moms company. But after working "together" for several years he quit and moved to Kansas. He moved back not long after that and he started filling in at the house i worked at. We exchanged "Myspace" information and a friendship was born. Adam and i took a trip together to Chicago (adventuresinchicagoland.blogspot.com). That trip bonded us as friends. We have since taken two more trips together (which are also on that blog).

Adam and I have had our ups and downs. At one point our low point was so low, I never thought we'd recover. I thought for sure I had lost him forever. I confided in a friend about how i felt about him and how i felt about our friendship being over. I realized at that point that i wasn't ready to let go of what we could have. But when i tried to reach out, he wasn't ready to reach back. Yes, at first it hurt. But then i figured if it was meant to be it will happen. Well not long after.... he reached back.

In September, he asked me to move in with him. At first I was leery. I had always lived with my mom (or at School) and i was comfortable with my position. Not to mention he lives in Norman and I live in Tulsa which is 2 hours from one another. Which means I would have to quit my job, and leave most of my family. After talking to a couple influential people in my life i decided to go ahead and do it.

After i decided to go ahead and move, Adam and I grew closer and closer. We had several phone conversations about "our" future. Well he brought some friends into Tulsa for a concert and we spent some time together and after the night was over he went back to Norman. Well shortly after midnight on November 23rd he called me. Well i was asleep but apparently answered the phone anyway (my ring isn't loud enough to wake me up, and i don't remember answering the phone.). We talked for a while and i kept hinting that i wanted to "further" our relationship and he kept turning it around on me. Well at one point I was so frustrated with him, I told him "it doesn't matter, i already tell people you're my boyfriend anyway." Well he laughed and said "well alright". Which really epitomizes our friendship, I'm the emotion and he accepts it and rolls with it.

Well at first i thought "this is gonna be weird". I went to his apartment on Thanksgiving (after my family thing) cause we were leaving the next day to go to Ft. Worth. Thats when i realized that it wasn't "weird", it felt very natural. Being with Adam is just as amazing if we were just walking around a statue of horses or if he was holding me because i was shivering because it was sssoooo cold or if it were more..... Yeah, it is awesome. Adam is awesome.

Well with in the last month.... we have celebrated his birthday (much to his shagrin), spent our first Christmas and new years together, and we spent so much time together. He is so supportive, very sweet, incredibly caring and more than I had ever hoped for. He calls me every day. He always asks about my day, no matter how crappy or fantastic his day was. He always ends every conversatiom with "I'll call you later" or "I'll call you tomorrow". He takes care of me, even when i'm not looking. I'm pretty sure hes done stuff that i havent even noticed. I'm not quite sure how his past relationships have let him go. But I will be eternally greatful. I'm hoping that I will never have to make that sacrifice.

Recently, i had this horrific headache. We were at his apartment and it started in my neck and travelled up into my head. It was the worst pain i had ever been in. I had gone in to the front room and went to sleep on the couch. He came in and realized how much pain i was in.... so he fixed the bed room to where it was completely dark, and he turned up the heat in the apartment so it would be warm when i got out of the shower. Well i went and layed down, got up a little later and took a shower and layed back down. He surfaced later and brought me food, medication and some TLC. What a simply amazing boyfriend i have. I love him very much and sometimes I feel as if I dont let him know how much he means to me.


Just so you know. :-)
