Why Do I Love Him and Know That I Am Ready

I guess you know when you want to spend the rest of your life with someone then it must be love When you’re willing to take the bad with the good When you know this person makes you feel like life is worth living, even just to spend it with them When you know it’s your best friend Your confident Your lover Your advisor Your strength Your rock Your sounding board for all your ideas Your cheer leader at times When you know it’s someone who makes you completely happy as much as they make you intensely mad Someone who ask how your day went, it matters to them, or what you ate for lunch, it also matters to them or what was the highest point or low point of your day and it matters to them Someone who you can learn from and grow with Someone who you always want to help grow So it’s not like this gushy feeling inside that tells you its love, for me it’s all those things that I mentioned and sometimes when I do get the gushy feeling, I know it’s an additional perk but it doesn’t define our relationship I sometimes ask what love is. How do you know? But I guess its whatever it means to you For some people love can mean someone showering them with gifts or love can mean someone who cares enough for them enough to beat them or someone who showers them with money Love can mean whatever it means to each person but those things are what loves mean to me Someone that makes life worth living And I don’t think its fairy tales and kisses and hugs and peaches and cream. Its hard work, its frustrating learning how to accept each other’s differences etc, and to tolerate of each other’s culture (if coming from different places) and expectations in a relationship etc, but surely its worth it in the end… I love him and ready to get marry to him… I DO!! KG!
