You never forget your first love.

Trust me, I'm happily married now.

Years pass and life changes, but you always remember how your first love felt.

My first love and I were on and off for years. We survived everything except his immaturity and my blind affection.

I’m thankful for him being in my life for so many years as my best friend and confidant. For putting up with me even when I was desperately in love and he was not. I can only hope that I was helpful to him during his life when it was difficult.

After all this time I am still grateful for the time I had with him and wouldn’t trade it for anything. All the times I had to surrender my thoughts and feelings to the Lord about him only made me stronger.

And now I have a wonderful husband who continually surprises me with how much fun we have.

So if your first love is giving you a hard time, know it’s worth it no matter what.
