Love ♡.

Love is something that we are taught from a very young age to aim for, there are a lot of different types of love but the one I'm referring to is the love between lovers; whether that be a man and a women, a man and a man or a women and a women. Personally love was something that I always wanted within time rather then to rush at the chance of having an guy that looks my way. Growing up you have a misconception of what love is, you think that because a guy is mean to you in the playground then that must in some weird world be code for "hey I like you wanna play tag with me" now I know that everyone is different and both their experiences and views on love with be different on mine but at the end of the day we all want love. Growing love was something I watched in movies, Troy and Gabriella were everything I ever pictured love to be , then as you grow up you realise that sadly Troy Bolton is just a made up charter and the Zac and Vanessa broke up.

As I grew up I then started to experience my own 'Relationships' as I used to call them, I thought I was in love despite how poorly I was being treated by the person. Even when the guy treated me with 0 respect I somehow fault I was in love, its wasn't until I met my now boyfriend that I realised that all of those times that I thought I was in love I really wasn't. Now to everyone out there I promise you when you finally find love and I mean real, crazy love and the guy actually treats you well and respects you will realise that before that moment all of those relationships that you thought were filled with 'Love' will just seem like a childhood crush. There is no specific way or moment that you will know that this is true love, you will just feel it the minute you realise that no one before this person has ever treated this well.

Now I am in no way trying to say that I have the perfect relationship but what I do know is that I am in love and that I am in a relationship that is filled with love, respect and laughter; and to be honest what more could you ask for? This real relationship I am currently in is the only relationship that I have been in throughout my life that I know feel like I'm being appreciated and that I feel assured that my other half is in love with me, but believe me I have had my fair share of bad relationships in my life which taught me a lot on how to avoid an unhappy relationship. The one factor of a relationship that I used at the beginning to determine how he would treat me is his friends and family, what I mean by this is the way that a man both treats you and talks about you in front of both their friends and family can tell you a lot about them and the way that they feel towards you. If the person your with talks kindly and with respect about you to other people then it shows that they are happy and proud to be with you, on the other hand if the words they use to describe you to others aren't kind then this may be a sign of how they may later treat you in your relationship. Luckily for me whenever my boyfriend speaks of me to others he always seem to only have kind and supportive words to tell them and for you guys out there this is the kind of person that I would recommend you try and find, a person that not only respects you will your alone but a person that respects you in front of others.

As this post comes to an end I would like to inform you guys that I am in no way an expert in love nor am I pretending to be one, everything that I have wrote on love is from my own experience and the ways that I feel love works in my personally relationship. Love is something that everyone deserves to experience, it can change your view on life because it changed mine ... and with that thought I'll leave you guys, till the next time ...
