What's up with your relationship?

Okay so, I guess it all deserves a huge back story, if you all have the patience, feel free to read it. Otherwise skip to the line which says SKIP TO HERE and enjoy. Also, I can't keep talking in 3rd person for a story so for convenience I am naming my girlfriend Clary.

Okay so here I am, sitting at home, typing this story, because mine’s quite an ordinary love story…nothing heroic about it. And to be frank, I won’t brag, won’t bluff, won’t exaggerate, or do anything to increase the ratings of this story. I promise. This was kind of a disclaimer. Also I am not to be held responsible if any of your love stories coincide with mine. This story is completely originally mine and any similarity is completely coincidental. Do not sue me for patent infringement. Many thanks!

People have been wanting to know about my relationship, which is probably why I felt the need to write this. Also, to be honest, I can’t be without her, reason being I get this weird void feeling when she’s not around even if I pretend to be a tough person all over... 

Let’s start from the very beginning. I am Andrew Lloyd, no big qualifications. I am a mental patient. I suffer from IED and ADHD. For those of you who don’t know what that means, Google it… Pretty much for the record, I’m a retard. I suffer from insomnia  and I did have Parthenophobia (fear of girls). So I’m much like Rajesh Koothrapalli from the Big Bang Theory and I haven't fantasized dating Siri.

I studied in a Junior Science College, let's call it HOE (Hell on Earth). First day of college, changed a few things for me. I saw her and some of you may disagree, but for me, this was love at first sight. I had no hope of dating her, at all. If you've seen me, you would know that I’m not the most handsome guy in town, neither do I specialize in anything except for speedsolving the Rubik’s cube at a very poor average of 18 seconds *cough*show off*cough. My point being, she was out of my league.

So, no matter how much I curse HOE, that institute is the reason I am with Clary today. We completed 2 years on November 11th. And here's the thing, when I started liking her I had no hope of getting her to like me back. I would be such a coward (some of you must be thinking, but you give all the ball talks to show courage in life), yeah yeah, I know, I was one of you. It took me quite some time to realise what I needed to do.

When I first told her that I like her, THAT was within 7 days of knowing her, she rejected me. For obvious reasons, she could not trust a guy whom she knew for such a less time. So I felt bad about it and I decided, if not a relationship let's just be friends and I'm gonna have to work hard to make her feel comfortable with me and I did. My only goal was to keep her happy and that is what she liked about me and within 2 months we started dating. Ever since then life has taught me many important things. It has taught me how to be responsible, how to care for someone, etc. I am not perfect, I agree. Now I know I say things, do things, that I don't mean when I'm angry and that hurts her. If you're reading this Clary, know that I am sorry.

We've been through tough times, times as bad as not talking to each other for months, where things seemed like we would never get back together but that too didn't last for long. The night is darkest just before the dawn and what matters is the hope that dawn is coming. The past week was pretty amazing and confusing as hell and it made me realise a few things.
Life is all about second chances and thank you Clary for giving me mine. None of us is perfect and that is what make us humans. Quoting Marilyn Monroe, "Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius because it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." 
So here we are, Andrew and Clary, back together and because we are perfectly imperfect in our own ways and it's the madness of love that keeps us going.
Jeez, so cheesy. Cheers to this 2 year long relationship and may this last for the years to come.

Thanks for reading.
Stay tuned.
Stay awesome.
Toodles :)
