OK, so I'm feeling a lot better about things. It's hard to be in a relationship when both of us are in transition in our lives. We're both trying to be better people in many respects, which means that a lot of our faults frequently shine through. It's rough right now, but we've talked and we're both wholly committed to each other. I always have this fear that he's going to leave me (abandonment issues were a lovely parting gift when my mom left -- unfortunately, they're very much a part of me on a daily basis) and realize he could do better. He assures me over and over again that that'll never happen. I love him so much, even with all of his imperfections. He loves me in spite of mine, too. We're going off on our journeys to become better people and we're going to do it together. Hooray for team Marissa & Nick! It's so nice to feel this way after an argument. :)
