These past few days... or maybe I should say 2 1/2 months I have learned what true love is. If you ask anyone what is true love we can all have some sort of answer ... and they are all right. But do we really understand really comprehend what true love is? I know I had my ideas about it and what it should be like but until a very special person came into my life I don't think that I fully understood what it is.
My boyfriend Ben I believe is a great example of what true love is. I can be a very difficult person. I don't try to be I don't want to be but I've learned that at times I can be very difficult. Past experiences in my life... relationship wise.... have not been the best. A few years ago I used to think that a true loving relationship was the best thing in the world... until I had a few. From those relationships I just thought that this whole true love thing was something that maybe I just wasn't ever going to have in my life. Ridiculous I know! I had been hurt and then I got over it and then I was just plain bitter. Figured all guys who came into my life were pretty much the same... DIRTBAGS! I would give anyone a chance but I KNEW in the end that they would be jsut like the rest.... I WAS WRONG!!! Something amazing happened to me.... Ben Weber entered my life.
I have realized that I sometimes get upset about stupid non important things. They end up turning into a fight somehow and then I look back and realize that there is no reason to really be upset. Ben has taught me that there are much more important things in life then worrying about little things that won't matter in five minutes unless we let them.
I am trying very hard to not get upset about little things. I honestly don't know why I do it and its very frusterating. Because of past experiences I've gotten used to people saying that they cant' take it and telling me I have mental issues and then leaving. Ben will never leave me and I will never ever leave Ben. Ben has taught me that you work through things,you talk, you compromise, you work it out. In the end we become a stronger couple and we realize that our love for each other has grown because we worked through things.
No matter what... no matter how stubborn, how rude, how ridiculous I am... Ben always makes sure that I know that he loves me. That has got to be really hard. I love Ben no matter what but he is not difficult and stubborn and rude. He is humble, patient, and kind. He has shown me that no matter what he will be there for me and he will always love me.
I don't know if this makes sense to any of you but I have learned what the true meaning of true love is. I am so blessed. I really think that I am the luckiest girl in the world. Ben has brought out the best in me and has helped me to be a better person. I love Ben so much. He means the world to me. We are perfect for each other. We have so much together. I can tell Ben anything. Things that I can't tell anyone else. He is my best friend and I am truly, deeply, madly in love with him. I am excited to see what the future holds and I can't wait for all the adventures we are going to have. He is amazing... and once again I am the luckiest girl in the world.
This is my definition of true love... Ben and Lindsey.
This is so cute Linds! I realized that I don't write much in my blog, I mostly have pictures. And you are the opposite! I am so happy that you and Ben are good for each other. I know how it feels to be truly in love and I am glad that you are finding that for yourself as well! P.S. It was good seeing you yesterday at Emily's wedding.
