Samuel Part 2

My Relationship - The Middle.




Me and Sam have had our issues, we would argue about stupid petty things (we still do this). We have been through so much, a year into our relationship and we had to overcome me having a tumour (which was benign) on my last remaining ovary. I had to have the tumour removed along with my only remaining ovary. I cannot have children and at the age of 21 when you are in a relationship that is not what is meant to happen. I phoned Sam as soon as I found out what had happened to tell him he hasn't got to stay with me, I have nothing to offer him, I cant have babies. He text me telling me how he wants to be with me and my health is more important and he's not going anywhere.



Sam helped me see that I was fat back in 2011, he didn't say it in the best of ways but it was effective a few months after we had this discussion I started watching what I was eating and loosing weight and even exercising using the Wii fit and going for walks. Doing this I lost 8 stone, I hope he was proud of me and I still let him know that his harsh words were what made me change my life. Although it isnt the greatest thing for your boyfriend to say to you, he had to be cruel to be kind.... It worked.



I had the operation and he came to see me in the hospital. I am really lucky to have him by my side. A year later I had Gall Stones and had to have them removed so another operation and Sam helped me get fit after and encouraged me to loose more weight. We spent 90% of our time together because we both didn't have jobs. Our favourite thing to do was watching films and taking mid day naps.










Just before my keyhole surgery to remove my gall stones, Me, Sam, Jacy, Ritchie and H (Sam's Mum, Step dad and His step dad's father) we all went to Sisi, Crete, it was the best holiday I had ever had. Unfortunately a few day before we left Birmingham Sam's uncle died so they were sad on holiday but all of them tried to have fun and tried to push it to the back of their mind. While we were there in the first week Richie got really ill and spent roughly 5 days in hospital. I fell over and really hurt my ankle. Me and Sam rented a quad bike twice we then  drove around Sisi, I drank tons of cocktails, we ate out in all the different restaurants every night and it was gorgeous food, we went exploring old ruins and caves that was where the Greek God Zeus was born. We also had a boat trip around some of the island which was epic. It was amazing and I really want to go back.










Me and Sam spent most of our days in comfy clothes watching films, TV shows and youtube videos. We would eat lots of food and drink squash and fizzy pop. in 2012/2013 we did have a few days out like, Cadbury world, Black country living museum, Birmingham Nature centre, The new birmingham library, Think Tank museum. We have done more but I might write a separate blog about our adventures.




In 2013 I started working and I would say we did drift apart a little because I wasn't with him as much, although I did stay at his house every night after work but I left shortly after waking up in the morning. I was working crazy hours trying to make us money and get a promotion. I did make quite a lot of money but my happiness was at an all time low, not only because I didn't see Sam but I struggled to see my friends and family. Sam spent most of his time in his bedroom playing his PS4 or watching things on his PC.



Through out our relationship Sam has had a few different jobs, Tote bookmakers, Next clothing store, A call centre and British Heart foundation. He has IBS and struggles with his tummy so sometimes working isnt easy. It's hard for me because I am very money motivated and we don't share that passion. I don't really care if Sam works or not, I would prefer it but it isn't everything. Sam is a massive support system for me and although our relationship isn't perfect and sometimes it stress's me out. I would be lost without him.



People always have opinions of other people's relationships but I feel like people judge mine on the basis that Sam doesn't work, that he doesn't do much with his life but it really is none of their business and I choose Sam to be in my life and he helps me through all of the rubbish life throws at me. He makes me a better person physically and mentally. Surely that should be all that counts.



Me and Sam work so well I think because he is like my best friend, we laugh and joke as if we are children. We were friends before we were together so we already knew each other. I feel really comfortable around Sam and I know he does me. We obviously have little habits that annoy one and other but that gives our relationship it's quirks. Sam is very opinionated and I am extremely bossy... You can guess how well our disagreements go Ha.



To be Continued....
