You were different. You weren't someone I could easily forget about. When I wasn't with you, I was talking to you, when I wasn't talking to you, I was missing you.

We weren't the average, best-matched pair out there. We butted heads, we argued like there was no tomorrow, and we didn't agree on a lot of things. But that's okay. You did your thing, I did my thing, and we did ours together.

We had such an intense and deep love that we could have done anything for each other. We supported each other, we challenged each other and most importantly, we would always fight for each other.

We weren't perfect, we made mistakes. Some bigger than others, some that other couples would not and could not get through. But WE did. We were strong enough to beat the odds. There were ups and downs, but the ups outweighed those downs by a million.

We've been through so much together, we were always there for each other. Through everything, you became my best friend. My rock, my go-to person, you were my other half. We planned our future and there was never a day I wasn't excited for it. We had our issues, and, truly, that's no one else's business.

The judgments weren't easy to overlook and as we were growing up and maturing together, the drama didn't help either. But, we worked out our differences, we got through our issues and we always forgave each other in the end. We did it because we love each other and we wanted to be together.

I have so much love for you. And the love you show to me is incredible and irreplaceable. With you by my side and the love we share, others' opinions will not tear us apart. I'm in love with you, and I will forever love you.

xoxo, my love.
