Soul mate?

Do you believe in the soul mate principle? That for every person, God created the match? I'm not entirely sure that I believe in that. I don't think that any couple is exactly perfect for each other. I think that what makes a couple happy is when they find that perfectness about the other. That perfectness that you find is what makes the two soul mates. I think that soul mates are able to see the amazingness in the other even when they're fighting. Some people say that soul mates never fight. Well, I call BS on that one. Everyone gets mad or annoyed at something that their girlfriend or boyfriend says or does. You can't just run off and leave someone because they make you mad one time. I do think that God had certain people in mind when he created certain people. I like to think that He had a girl like me in mind when He created Ryan, and then two years, four months, and six days later, He had Ryan in mind when He created me.

So this one is about:

Broderick Ryan Gillilan

This boy is easily the most amazing guy in the world. He's 19, born in July, graduated from Holly Pond... blah blah blah. This blog isn't about him. It's about US. There is no me and him, but a we and us. We're a whole. We're not a normal couple... We're so far from normal. We constantly fight about stupid stuff and in our minds we think of ways to kill each other. Honestly, we hate each other. But I couldn't imagine going just one day without talking to him.

He's so much fun. I've never laughed as much as he makes me laugh. I'm so happy all the time. Even when we yell and cuss and feel like we want to kill the other, I'm happy. We were at Heritage Park when these pictures were taken. We're such crazy kids. :) Look at how weird we are. Everything about us screams wrong, but it's way too great to throw away.

My Sweet 16! This was probably the most amazing birthday ever. Kinda graphic picture... Totally PG-13. Sorry. But that was a great night. Not only was he there, but all of my best friends were there. I think my mom let him stay until 11 that night. I was so excited!! Brandi was on the other end of the couch with a box of pizza. Lol. I love this boy. The best part about that birthday was the fact that Ryan was there. It was a lame surprise party that I knew about, it was joined with my brothers party, my cousin Drew embarrassed me horribly, but he was there and he at least acted like he had the time of his life. I guess that could be what makes him so great. He always wants me to be happy. Maybe that's why I always am.... Who knows?

This is our most recent picture. It was taken Sunday, November 27. He was helping me put ornaments on my little Christmas tree. That might not sound like a big deal, but it was to me. You see, there was a show on that he really wanted to watch, but he stayed with me instead. He was there until 8:30 (it was a school night) helping me with the tree. We considered it as practice for the future. :) I love this kid. Lots and lots and lots. More than anything in the world. <3

*I know this one is lovey and stuff, but is it fair to write blogs about my best friends but not my boyfriend? I talk to him more, and I sure as heck don't kiss Aljon and Ben and Celine... Weird.

**And... I love you, Ryan. <3
