The Boyfriend Blog
September 13, 2019
This is it.
Today is the big day. I’m officially moving to California! I don’t know whether to laugh, cry, or shit myself. It’s been rough living without Aiden for the last month, but I needed to wrap up a few loose ends here at home, and I wanted to make sure Edna got settled into her new place.
Aiden and I are officially moved out of both apartments, and the moving truck picked up the last of our things last night. I woke up this morning, ready to start this new journey, and then my sister walked into the room.
Her baby bump is finally visible, and when I put my hand on her belly, I broke down in tears. I’m going to miss her so damn much, and I hate that I won’t be here with her every step of the way, but I’ve promised to visit all the damn time. And she’ll make the trip out to visit me whenever she can.
As for my parents, they’re happy for us. Aiden’s parents are happy, too. His mom can’t wait to come visit. And if you’re wondering about Calvin, well, I managed to stay mad at him…until he asked Aiden and me to be the godparents of his and Millie’s little girl. That’s right, they’re pregnant. Due to have their baby girl three weeks after my sister. Turns out Millie was knocked up before the wedding. It was completely unexpected, but the happy couple couldn’t be more excited. I felt bad because, apparently, that’s what he wanted to tell Aiden the day of our big fight, and I ruined it for him. Calvin tried to give me a hard time about it, but Millie laughed it off and threatened to withhold sex if he didn’t ease up on me.
I love Millie.
I love Calvin, too.
My heart is overflowing with so much love and joy that I’m afraid I’ll drown in it. Every single day I drop to my knees and thank God for giving me this life.
For giving me Aiden.
There’s truly nothing better than being head over heels in love with your best friend and knowing he feels the same way about you. I’ll cherish him every day for the rest of my life.
My journey to finding love wasn’t an easy one, which brings me to what I really wanted to talk to you about.
August 29, 2015, I started this blog to document my journey in finding love. It was tough, but I carried you with me every step of the way. You, the readers—my followers—were here for every bad date, awful kiss, and missed connection, and I can’t thank you enough for hanging in there with me.
When I wrote that first post, I was heartbroken. I was convinced that the man I was meant to spend my life with didn’t want me. Never in a million years did I think we would end up together. But here we are. Happy, and in love.
If it can happen for me, it can happen for you, too. There is a guy, or girl, out there for you. You just have to open your eyes and your heart and allow yourself to love. But more than that, you have to allow yourself the ability to forgive, because without forgiveness, Aiden and I wouldn’t be where we are now.
It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that this will be my last post on The Boyfriend Blog. It doesn’t seem fitting anymore because I’ve found my true love, and he’s so much more than my boyfriend. He’s my soulmate. And rather than starting The Soulmate Blog, I’m going to focus my energy on my new life. Maybe someday I’ll come back with something fresh and new. Until then, keep swiping left, or right, or not at all. Keep searching for love or whatever it is you’re looking for in life, and don’t give up until you find it.
XOXO,
Liz
