I consider myself lucky. In life everyone is trying to find happiness and for most people that involves finding the love of their life, their soulmate, THE ONE. I’m lucky because I’m a mere 21 years of age and I’ve found mine. Not every girl is lucky enough to be able to say that. Some wait their whole lives to meet their soulmate and some never actually meet THE ONE.

The love of my life and I actually met a few years back but our love was a forbidden one. We would sneak around meeting when we could, we had our friends help us convene in secret and we even met under alias’s on a couple of occasions. The idea of the forbidden was a part of the charm of our budding relationship.

A lot has changed since then. We no longer have to sneak around like we used to, our relationship is out in the open for the world to see and for us to boast proudly about on Instagram and Snapchat. And I dare say—we are #relationshipgoals.

My love also isn’t quite as sweet as it once was but instead we have a deeper, richer connection that no weak floozy could ever come between.

Now that’s not to say that we haven’t had rough spots. We have been through some serious trials and tribulations. We’ve both done each other wrong on a few occasions in ways that have left us crying on the bathroom floor, so upset we were in a state of nausea.

But, when it comes right down to it, my love is truly the love of my life and is always there for me. No problem is too big to fix or comfort me with. No celebration is truly a celebration without my love by my side.

Through thick and thin, bitter and sweet, or even just the perfect mid-sweet moments, my love will always be there for me. Never failing me.

And I’ll always be there too, I love you wine. And I always will.
