Love has been defined so many times, in so many ways… that sometimes the real meaning kind of gets lost among the myriad of definitions, and gets confusing after a while. For me, love may be complicated, but really, when you think about it, it really is just simple actually. For me, love is…

• The certain warmth I feel every time I think of him
• The yearning, and the way I miss him when we’re not together
• The butterflies in my stomach when I know I’m about to see him
• The nervousness I get when I know he’s coming over to see me
• The sudden jumping of my heart every time I see him
• The contentment I feel every time he sweeps me in his arms for a hug
• The sparks and the melting feeling I get every time we kiss
• The excitement that surges through me when I hear his voice over the phone
• The feeling that I just can’t get enough of him
• The smile that crosses my face every time I remember our moments together
• Being comfortable around him, like knowing when to be silly and when to be serious
• Knowing he’s the first person I think of when I wake up in the morning and the last one I think of before going to sleep at night
• Being able to show him who I truly am, just because I know that he’ll accept me for who I am
• Being able to acknowledge that he’s not perfect, but always seeing the good things in him
• Knowing that there are lots of guys out there, but believing that no one else compares to him
• Watching him sleep and just memorizing each line and curve of his face
• Fighting with him, then regretting it afterwards, saying sorry, and then making up
• When I’ve got good news, he’s the first person I think of and the first person I want to share it with
• Being open and honest in the relationship, knowing I can trust him to do the same with me
• Believing in him, having faith in him, and being proud of him
• Missing him even just after a few minutes that we’re apart
• Learning to trust completely, even though sometimes it could be difficult
• Learning to accept him for who he is, without question, without judgment
• Bringing out the best in each other and growing in love together
• Wanting to spend forever getting to know him and caring for him
• Wanting to be with him and share the rest of my life with him
• Not being able to imagine my life without him in it

From the moment I saw him, I felt there was something special about him. From then on, it was a wonderful ride with him. It’s been 4 years since then, but I still feel everything like it was the first time. I guess this is what true love really means… finding that one person you can give your heart to, and loving him unconditionally… no matter what.
