Tomorrow is Valentines Day. I always dread Valentines because it just makes me feel even more forever alone than I feel every other day of the year. It's fine that I'm forever alone though because I'm not old enough to date anyway and I HATE when people "go out" before they're 16 because first of all they're so immature abotu everything and they think they know everything because they have a boyfriend/ girlfriend. I'm totally cool with not having a boyfriend because what's they point?!?
I wanted to do a Valentines post no matter how alone and boyfriendless I am. I've thought long and hard about how to do this.
Well... here it goes I guess:
I'm really not the kind of person that gets into liking people. I just dont seriously like people. Most of the time when people ask who I like and I say no one, thats the honest truth. I mean I've liked people, but not like oooh-lets-go-out-because-I-like-you kind of way. It's more of a you're-sweet-and-I-like-that-about-you kind of way. You know that feeling?
I've only ever SERIOUSLY liked one boy. It was Braiden Garner. I liked him for 7 years straight from the time I was 7-14, but I wasn't like oh i wanna kiss you and lets go out when we're 12. I just always thought he was the sweetest kid. He was always just the nices boy. He was always thoughtful and super cute with the little kids. He was outgoing to everyone which has always been a quality I wish I had. He always included everyone and brought everyone, never brought anyone down. He could always cheer me up when I had a bad day. Because of him I know a lot about the kind of guy I want to marry. He's the kind of guy I want my little brother to be. He's not only the kid I like for years and years and years, but he's my strength and my example. He's so emotionally strong and just a great example of perserverance and kindness. He's my greatest example and first love.
Valentines is such a great thing for my parents. They don't get to go out as often as they would like because of my dad's job and just how busy life gets for all of us, but no matter what every single Valentines Day they go on a fancy or fun date and leave the rest of us home.
I think dating is important not just until you get married, but to spend time with your spouce and just have a good time. My parents get about half or less of the time together that normal couples get, so it's rough, but them strengthening their relationship is one of the most important things in our family life.
Our family has been through some rough spots that most families dont go through, but even though my parents weren't always strong they are great examples of loving each other and strength and pulling through when we're all at our lowest lows.
I may not be old enought to date, but that's ok. Valentines is still important to me because it strengthens my family!
