I am thankful for my partner. She is so loving, understanding, supportive, and open. I don't know what the last year would have been like without her, and I'm not sure how I managed before I met her. She has taught me so much about relationships and how to accept where I'm at and who I am, that it's okay to be me, things that don't come to me naturally. She has given me the freedom, the space, the safety, and the acceptance to explore my issues and learn how to coexist in a mutually healthy way.
