My last couple posts were about my partner because my last year of my 20s was drastically changed after I met him. The day we met was a very casual weekend, nothing too special, and we had met when he came to visit NYC with a group of friends who were also my friends from middle and high school growing up. One of my friends wanted me wingman for her, because she was interested in his brother. My partner, knowing this fact, tried to wingman for his brother. But somewhere in the course of the night, the wingmen started a conversation that would give a sense of “love at first sight.” We found out we went to the same middle and high school, and he had remembered me from high school because I came up to him one day, telling him to report to me if anyone bullied my younger brother (although I don’t remember this encounter). We clicked well while conversing that day and enjoyed our night out with our group of friends. Since that one day in midtown, we talked daily. The conversations we had revealed that our personalities were very compatible, and we both enjoyed similar activities. His perfections and imperfections were all favorable in my eyes, and mine to him as well. He was very different from any other boys I had recently encountered- being innately kind by nature. He was genuine, considerate, modest, and open minded. He adored me very much and tried his best to take good care of me even when we were states apart. We both fell in love and despite our ups and downs, we managed to settle our barriers and be proactive in our relationship. Now our 1-year anniversary is nearing, and we cannot be happier for our decisions to be in each other’s lives. Any recommendations for our 1-year anniversary? All suggestions and creative ideas will be appreciated! Youngju makes me want to be a better person and brings out the best in me. With him, I feel that I am the best version of myself. He truly is a loving and caring man and inside and out, he is a beautiful human being
