It's weird, isn't it? When someone makes one mistake, suddenly every good deed they have ever done becomes forgotten. It's like people expect this certain someone to be perfect, to never make mistakes. Everyone says
"nobody's perfect, everyone makes mistake", but who really agrees to that term?
Yes, my boyfriend has made me cry on several occasions, but is that reason enough to label him as a bad boyfriend? What is a relationship without arguments? I say that an argument is just a step to getting to know each other better, it just depends on whether you want it to affect your relationship or not. My parents have been married for over 20 years, and they have gotten into arguments countless of times, but they're still going strong, aren't they? Are you going to label my father as a bad man over the one argument he has with my mother, or are you going to label him as a great guy for the 20 over years he has spent taking care of her welfare? You tell me.
When I got a relapse and had to get my medication injected into me, my boyfriend took me to see the nephrologist at 9 am in the morning. When my dad was too busy, my boyfriend took me to the hospital to collect my medication. My boyfriend picked me and my mum up from the hospital when my dad had to go for a meeting. My boyfriend made a video of him singing and dedicated it to me. He took me to Bukit Tinggi where he asked me to become his girlfriend on top of a tower. When I got stomach flu, my boyfriend stayed at my place for the whole day trying to feed me, and he kept an eye on me even when I was asleep on the sofa. When I got a fever, he showed up downstairs. My boyfriend has bought pizza for my whole family a few times. He brought me to Mont Kiara in the morning where he cooked breakfast for me. My boyfriend is in really good terms with my family, and is even doing business together with my dad. My boyfriend bought souvenirs for the whole family when he went on holiday. He even drove my dad to Giant and afterwards went to get some coffee together. My boyfriend shared money with me and my aunt to buy a birthday cake for my dad. My boyfriend reminds me every day that he loves me.
And those are just some of the things my boyfriend has done. Do you still dare say he is a bad boyfriend only because of the few times he has made me cry? Yes, I do cry. It is only human to cry. Insecurities and paranoia tends to cause fights. But that doesn't mean he is treating me badly, because honestly, I can't find anyone else who can treat me better. I am perfectly happy with the man I am with now, I would really appreciate it if people would realize that. Remind me to stay strong when I am upset, not tell me that he is an awful person.
No one ever promised that relationships would be easy, no one ever said that it'll be a breeze. And I am prepared to face all that with Nazrin. I wouldn't have it any other way.
