Because I love you?

   We often hear the reason why someone loves us when we’ve done wrong. Parents said they’d whoop us because of love. As kids we think that’s crazy. The only time I’ve gotten a whopping was for peeing in the bed. Well, that’s when I was getting the most whoopings. It was second grade when I experienced my first boyfriend. Yea,I said experience. I was still young, so it wasn’t anything but a experience. As a couple we didn’t talk,hold hands, or anything. Til this day I say he was a school boyfriend. If that was love then i’ve e missed out on a lot. Growing older didn’t change the perspective  with the young guys I dated. Fourth grade I met someone who actually talked to me on the phone. However,not at school. Could this be the love I was looking for? I finally seen someone I liked for a change in 5th grade. Sad to say that this was my ex’s brother. It was like I started all th way back over. We didn’t even talk to each other! Eleven in the six grade. This is when guys started to approach me. Hmp, had I been a fool I would’ve said,”this is real love.” Ya see...that guy only wanted one thing. Fast forward to the ninth grade. More guys approach me. They all wanted the same thing. Was this love? If I was a fool my body count would be three or higher.  I eventually started getting guys who talked to me in and out of school. Every phone conversation had to contain sex? Ridiculous! If this was love. You fill in the blanks. Never in my life had I  tried to talk to boys with a mindset of dating them. If you wanted me, then you'll get me,and keep me. January 27 was the day I got a official best friend. He respects me. This man listens to every word or cry I have to say! He cares about me, my life, the choices that I make ,and my future. Why? Because he loves me! When we make mistakes, we talk about them. Communication is the key to a healthy relationship. How would you know anything if he doesn’t tell you. When I feel like I can’t do something he’s there to motivate me ,and give me mutiple reasons why I can. Because of his love I am a happier person. Because he listens I am stressed out less. Because he’s not focused on the panties, I can trust that he won’t leave. Because we don’t keep secrets. It lets me know that I can trust him alone. I know that he loves me because all his actions tells me that he truly cares about me,and this relationship. I know him like a studied book. Our love is strong,and we will not let foolishness break it. This is because he loves me.
