10 Year Anniversary!

Matt and I don’t usually do anything or celebrate anniversaries but this year is a real mile stone.

10 years together today.

We first started dating on his birthday so it usually gets missed with birthday celebrations, but this year feels more special to me and we plan on going to Video Games Live and for dinner next week as an anniversary/birthday celebration.

We meet when we were 17 in college, I was a wee Media student and Matt was a Photography student. We meet through friends and I tagged along on a trip with the photography students which I spent the whole day hanging around with Matt. I was really swept away by his humor and he oozed this cool laid back character. We started messaging, sneaking out at night to just walk around and chat and then I stayed at his house and never left so we have lived together for those 10 years and been inseparable ever since.

I still remember our first kiss and the first time he told me he loved me like it was yesterday. We have been through education together, moved out together and done everything together since the day we meet. We have had troubled periods and managed to work through but other than these very rare occasions (which I’m pretty sure every couple suffers) we gel together perfectly.

We have so much in common and are both as weird and geeky as each other. It feels like I have known him for a life time yet it doesn’t feel like it’s been 10 years as it has gone so fast. I am so excited as I feel last year we started on a whole new journey together and I cannot wait to see what the future holds for us!

I can’t see my life without him and all my future plans are of us as a team. One day I hope to call myself Mrs Crosse and wear a ring proudly on my finger and maybe even a mini us running around one day.

I feel very lucky to have someone who is as kind, loving and as supportive as him. He is talented, smart and funny and everything I could wish for in a partner. He embraces my quirks and loves me who I am and as do I to him.

Let’s hope to another 10 years of happiness and support from each other!

So Happy Birthday Matt and Happy Anniversary, you've made the last 10 years the best I could ever wish for!
