nostalgic feat

April 30. Today’s the 17th month for our relationship, just in case you did not already know.

We have been doing this (celebrating, that is) for almost a year and a half now, but whenever it’s the end of the month, I still get butterflies. There is still that air of excitement and anticipation; indeed very reminiscent of that first solo date that we had about two years ago. It was so much like in high school, but then again, it felt good while it lasted.

So, fast-track to the present. Passion has not even dwindled, as some have predetermined. Just because he is a bit younger, a few people thought that we wouldn’t even get this far into our relationship. (Even his old friends, who knew his reputation back in high school, thought the same but they were all well-meaning). And yet, look at where we are now?

It’s good to share the up’s and down’s of life with someone. I don’t even bother about fancy dinner dates anymore. But yes, he is still in touch with his softer side and has not forgotten to pamper me from time to time – chocolate, flowers (yup, my favorite pink roses), massages, and what-not’s.

And oh, I read my horoscope a while back, and it did warn me that I might be having a slight surge of nostalgia today. What a coincidence! But will those rose-colored lens of nostalgia be too hard to resist? No, it has brought me into a conclusion that there is no better place to be than right here. *blushes*
