How to be in a healthy relationship
It made me
Exstatic 
"After a ton of self evaluation, I found someone who appreciates me and that I respect."
How I did it: Opened myself up for new experiences and tried to have fun. I met and dated a ton of people before I found her. It is great now.
We opened up ourselves, which was particularly hard for me after being hurt repeatedly, but I took the plunge again and we are happier than ever.
Our relationship was hit hard when she was paralyzed from Lupus and spent 2.5 months in the hospital. I was there every chance I could, and spent many night sleeping in the hospital. We made it through though. Now we look back on the experience and smile. It was hard, but it made us find each other on a real level (not solely physical which I tend to do too often)
