Fun fact about me!! Iâve been obsessed with the same guy for almost 6yrs now, and no unfortunately I donât have a ring yet. I do have a feeling it is coming soon tho :))
My boyfriend and I started dating 11/18/2018, which was our senior year of Highschool together. I had just gotten out of a rough 2yr relationship and swore off dating and Pedro had never had a real girlfriend before because he just didnât care too. Well our best friends started dating each other and they convinced us to start talking, and our relationship outlasted theirs.
We just recently got to the point of our lives that we have been dreaming of since we were kids together. I graduated college in 2023 and this February we moved into our first home together. We have two furbabies, a 8 month old puppy and a 5 month old kitten.
Just a warning I am blunt and honest, some people may like it and some may not.
How to make it work:
â¤ď¸ Trust!!!
If you donât have trust why are you with the person? This is coming from a girl who was previously abused in not one but two relationships while in high school (yeah I know rough.. but thatâs another story) before I met Pedro. If you canât trust your own partner the relationship will never work.
â¤ď¸Respect
Plain and simple.. if youâre gonna cheat you donât love the other person. You should break up with them if you ever even think about someone else in that way. If you donât feel respected please donât allow yourself to go through that.
â¤ď¸Breaks arenât Real
The point of a relationship is to communicate and grow, how will you do that while separated. Some also use it as an excuse to see other people.
â¤ď¸Have the Hard Talks
When I went to college pedro and I struggled a lot with the distance the first two years, even though I was only 40 minutes away.. lol. We cried a lot and had a lot of long and hard discussions but it only made us understand how the other truly felt. Now living together and adjusting to each others lifestyles has also brought on some tears and hard conversations but in the end we know we love each other and we only want whatâs best for our life together.
â¤ď¸Be patient
I am not so good at this but my boyfriend is beyond patient with me, especially when Iâm being a hothead. Iâve been learning a lot lately to take time to understand we are both coming from completely different backgrounds (Iâm a white girl and his parents are from Brazil) and weâre finally coming together learning how to live with each other.
â¤ď¸Know the Balance
Make time for each other but also learn to still spend time with your girls. Iâm really good at making time because my boyfriend works 60+ Hour weeks running his familyâs restaurant lol. We have our set day together once a week and obviously I live with him so we spend time together after work. Because my boyfriend has so little time off Iâve become very good at sharing him with his boys, whoâre also my best friends as well but we see them very often. Pedro and I make sure to have days that are just us every other week and we have a nice day together and date night.
â¤ď¸Choose to Make it Work
You have to choose that person and want to make it work and unfortunately it does have to be reciprocated so not all relationships do work. We chose each other at a young age and knew what we wanted and we continued to choose eachother through the years into adulthood.
Iâm not saying my relationship is perfect by any means, but I know neither pedro or I have ever doubted our love for each other and every fight we know itâs going to work out in the end. We are finally reaching the points in our life we dreamed of together as kids â¤ď¸ #highschoolsweethearts
