My First Love
Freshman Year Love is the greatest gift we can ever hope to give or receive. It is the one thing that can over come so many of the difficult times that we are faced within life. Love can turn the ugliness in the world into the most beautiful portrait. My first love started during my freshman year. Falling in love with my best friend changed the person who I am today. Becoming a freshman in high school, made me feel like one of the older kids. I wasn’t a kid in middle school anymore. High school was a new surrounding with new people to meet. In all of my six classes, I only had one friend that I knew. His name was Michael Thompson. Michael was in my fifth period math class. He was always a class clown. It all started when Sadies came. Sadies was a dance for a girl to ask a guy to a dance, and to dress as twins. My best friend and I wanted to go, so we decided on whom I should take. It was easy for her because she had a boyfriend at the time. Knowing Alexis’s boyfriend Tyler was best friends with Michael, she insisted on me asking him. She thought it would have been nice since we were all best friends. At the time I wasn’t interested in taking him, but Alexis persuaded me. She told me how great of a guy he was and how I would have so much fun if I went. I called him a few minutes later, he was so happy to hear that I wanted him to be my date. Gonzalez 2
While shopping for our outfits, we got to spend time together. We got to learn more about each other. That day, I started to like him. The following week, Sadies came. We were both looking forward to the dance. We had such a great time with one another. We got together on April 27, 2008. Michael and I were like best friends, it was hard for something or someone to break us apart. We were always with each other and we always had fun. He was the perfect boyfriend in my eyes. Michael was very sweet and he had a great personality. He had a sense of humor and he always made me laugh. During the second year we were together, we started arguing. We were arguing over the small stuff. We argued over hanging out with friends, being around each other, and other things that shouldn’t have mattered. Through all of our arguments, in the end we always got through them. We worked out our problems until one of us gave up. Eventually, he gave up. It broke my heart knowing the break up was because of our arguments. I was losing my best friend over anger issues. If there will ever be another opportunity, I’d be more mature about our relationship. I would solve our problems like an adult. Over all, Michael and I needed a break. We broke up on December 17, 2010. Losing a best friend was very heart breaking for me, but it made me become the person who I am today. I became a stronger person than I was before .Going through my first love, was a nice experience that I can never forget. Love is used so often that we never really give it a thought until we have gone through it. Michael was my first love and there’s more to come. Falling in love with my best friend made me grow into an adult. I became very independent and more mature. Young adults will become mature once they they have gone through a situation that makes them realize they aren’t a child anymore. Gonzalez 3
Today, I keep my head up high and chase after my dreams. Michael will always be my best friend.
