During our lives, we encounter a various amount of people. Some who are just in your life for a short time, and some who are permanently a part of you. No matter the length they stay in your life, there are always some who mean more than others. We meet people who make us remember what it's like to feel something, and eventually some sort of relationship kindles. Time doesn't always work out in our favor, but whatever happens this person stays a part of you forever.

I found my person back in high school. He was my best friend, and to this day still is. We've encountered many difficulties throughout the course of our friendship, but somehow we made it through. When we were about 16, everything changed whenever I found out he had feelings for me. It became extremely difficult because I had a boyfriend at the time, but he respected that and remained my best friend. Over the next year we both found ourselves in different relationships. Even though we had these new partners and didn't really speak much, we knew we would be there for each other no matter what. We stayed in each others hearts because it would hurt more losing each other completely.

Our relationships ended around the same time coincidently, and we became friends again. It was nice to pick up where we left off and learn about what we did over the last year of our lives. It was like we never stopped being friends. Once our friendship rekindled, we decided to try to take things to a different level. We became more than friends but not boyfriend/girlfriend level. It lasted for the summer of 2017, but we ended things once it was time to leave for college.

It always seems like when we find a person we truly connect with it's never the right time. I'm a firm believer of the saying "Right person, wrong time" because I have lived through it. Even though this person doesn't remain in your life always, they will always have a special place in your heart.
