Despite all the dumb fights we've had lately, I think our relationship is just as stable, if not more stable, as it was at the beginning of the semester.
 Hey everybody. Just thought I'd let you know, in case you didn't already, that finals suck. Other than a few papers and math projects, all of which are due tomorrow, my life is going well. Hope everyone's Thanksgiving went well...I must say it was good to go home for a while. I got to see some old friends, but I must admit it was weird to have a room and a bathroom to myself... and I found myself surprised that I didn't have to venture a few blocks in the cold just to get some dinner. I spent a lot of time with my boyfriend, but not as much as I would have liked. It's hard to get privacy among all the relatives everywhere. Despite all the dumb fights we've had lately, I think our relationship is just as stable, if not more stable, as it was at the beginning of the semester. He was in Boston all summer, so I got used to not being able to see hime as much as I would like to. It's rough, though, with himbeing younger than I am. While I am already on my own and starting to figure out my life, he's still at home living with his mom and living under her rules. I can understand his situation perfectly, but that doesn't mean it's easy for me to accept it. I feel bad sometimes because I think I take my frustration out on him...

Anyway, I still love him just as much as I always have. My grandmother and I got into a huge fight one time because she told me that coming to college with a boyfriend was the biggest mistake of my life. She said that I should date around, and asked me how I was so sure I should stay with him. If I had the answer to that question I could make a million dollars- how are you ever sure you're in love? I take the fact that I have never felt the way I feel about Rich with anyone else (and yes, I have dated other guys...) and the fact that I can see perfectly my future with him as some clues. A lot of people laugh, but I have never had any vision of my future without himthere right beside me. A lot of people say it won't last through college, but until I have any other feelings, I'd prefer to think that it will. After all, my parents started dating their senior year of high school and are still married 30 years later. That's proof enough for me.
