Figuring out what it’s like to be loved is like setting off on a new adventure for me. Trying to find someone who really understands me feels like trying to catch a super quick shooting star — a bit tricky.

Imagine having someone who loves every part of you, just the way you are. That’s like reaching for stars high up in the sky — sounds nice, but also feels kinda far away.

So, when someone shows up with lots of love, my first thought is to push it away. It’s strange, like saying no to something great just because it seems too good for someone like me.

As I go through all this, it feels like I’m losing bits of myself, trying to prove that I’m worth being loved. But here’s the cool part — every piece of me deserves love, and I’m starting to get that.

Growing up in a family where feelings were a bit hard to find makes me wanna keep people at a distance. I want love, but at the same time, I’m kinda of scared of it.

I really do wanna be loved, but first, I need to figure out what love is all about. I want to see love as a buddy, a good thing, something safe. Most importantly, I want to learn to let myself be loved. It’s like learning to trust in the warm hug of love and letting it be a part of my life.

And now, here I am, two years into this journey of discovering how it feels to be loved, and let me tell you, it’s nothing like the scary story I once thought it would be. It’s become this beautiful, easy, and fun adventure.

You see, I realized this could happen because I found an amazing partner. He’s not just a companion; he’s a dedicated teammate in creating this wonderful partnership. His efforts make love feel like a breeze, full of joy, and undeniably safe. The fear I once had? It’s gone. Love isn’t a scary thing anymore. It’s like a fun and comforting friend.

But, oh, here’s the best part: it’s not only about falling in love with a person. It’s about falling head over heels for my own life. Yes, you heard it right — I’m in love with my love.

This transformation, it’s more than just a change; it’s a complete shift in how I see love. What used to be a scary concept has turned into something magical. I’ve become friends with love, and every step of this journey fills me with pride. Reflecting on this adventure, I find beauty not only in being loved by someone else but also in falling deeply in love with my own life. It’s about embracing the magical and heartwarming essence that love brings.

This story isn’t just about overcoming fear; it’s a tale of self-discovery and triumph. I hold it close to my heart as a testament to the extraordinary power of love. It has this incredible ability to transform even the most hesitant of hearts, and I’m living proof of that miraculous journey
