Anniversary Time

Well this is going to be a pathetic blog, but I am running out of ideas, so I thought I would use this. Tomorrow will be our one year anniversary. I know it may not seem like that long to some people, but we have been through so much within this year. To give you a little background before I continue within the story, I used to be the perfect kid except for my smart mouth. I never did anything bad, I told my parents everything I was doing, I let everyone boss me around and use me, I had to make straight A’s because a B was not good enough. I have the dad who makes a lot of money, but he travels the majority of the time, so I never see him. My mom works at FedEx, and she spends all of my dad’s money. Our family looks pretty good from the outside. They hate each other.
They cannot agree on anything, and everything turns into an argument. They tried sending me to a psychologist because they thought I had an anger problem. As it turns out, I was not the one with the problem. By the time I finally made it to be a senior, my relationship with my family became too bad. I could not take it anymore. I had planned to go to Mississippi State University and be a physical therapist. Then I started thinking, I did not want any of that. This is where Jay comes in. We started dating after New Year’s Eve. I was having so many problems with my family at this time, but he helped me deal with it. He had a really rough life, so when he told me all his sad stories, I felt like my problems were nothing. We met at the YMCA in Millington. I had actually decided to quit something for the first time in my life, basketball. Since I wasn’t playing a sport, I decided to start working out. Jay worked at the YMCA. That’s where everything started. We finally got a chance to hang out the first Friday after we started talking. We saw each other every day after that. He came to my house every day. I did not know what to do. I had never had a boyfriend who actually put effort into the relationship. It was always just me. Jay is that perfect blend. I know he would do anything for me, but he will still argue with me. I hate a guy I can just push around. This is going to sound crazy, but I swear I loved him after a week. I know most people don’t believe in that stuff, but I swear it’s true. Everything was perfect, and it still is. Of course we still have out stupid little fights, but the majority of the time we are very happy. After I graduated, things with my family got worse and worse. Finally, I said I’m getting out of this no matter what it takes. I knew it couldn’t afford it alone, so I got Jay to move in with me. We have started to deal with daily stresses now, but we are still doing great. He has helped me so much, and I cannot thank him enough. He supports me in everything I do. He is all I ever wanted, and I am so lucky to have him in my life. Sorry I know no one cares about this, but I just thought I would write about it because I’m really happy, so I thought I would share it with you guys.
