Today is National Girlfriends Day.

So, allow me to simp over my girlfriend Paislee Jane in this gross icky Twitter thread.

My 2020, like everyone else& #39;s, has been one long hard kick in the urethra.

I became homeless suddenly, lost pets, money, stability, and become depressed.
In an act of sheer self-destructive recklessness, I downloaded Tinder and began using it.

What was supposed to be something that would totally wreck my mental health wound up being arguably the best thing to come out of 2020 for me.
We matched on February 5th and clicked faster than I& #39;ve ever clicked with another human being.

Our first conversations over text stretched into all hours of the night. We& #39;d start at 7PM and wrap up around 3AM without realizing it. She was and continues to be so damn interesting.
At the time I thought she was too good to be true. A catfish? Some guy downloading pictures from the internet for kicks?

I stopped by the restaurant she worked at for lunch after meeting her and realized to my surprise that she& #39;s a REAL HUMAN BEING wow.
Seeing her in person for the first time was weird. I am normally super confident and composed but she leveled me to a puddle that first day. I was shaking, stuttering, and so incredibly awkward. She was nervous too. Her co-workers were making fun of her which was super endearing.
We hung out on February 8. I got to walk around town with her, show her all the sights, see a movie, and take her to dinner.

We never ran out of things to talk about and conversations flowed smoothly. She was smart, funny, charming, creative, and wonderfully empathetic.
After that, whatever crush I had on her evolved into this uncontrollable monster that consumed me from the inside out.

After telling my mom about how amazing this new girl in my life was, my mom went ahead and baked her cookies for me to give to her on Valentine& #39;s Day.
I learned how to play her favorite song at the time (Ohio by King Princess) and played it for her on Valentine& #39;s Day. I gave her the cookies my mom baked, a hand-drawn card, and I asked her if she& #39;d be interested in going steady with me. She said yes.
Paislee and I went on a few more fun dates before Covid shut the whole world down.

She told me that in all of her past relationships, she was the one who initiated the first kiss. I wanted to change that. I wanted our first smooch to be something cool and exciting for her.
February 19, Paislee and I went on a date to a Raccoon Tour show. I was desperately searching for the right opportunity to give her a memorable kiss. The pressure was ridiculous.

I had like 6 opportunities to kiss her that night and passed them up expecting the next to be better
Eventually, the show was over and we went home. We were both bummed because I choked on every opportunity to smooch her.

"We missed like a dozen good kisses waiting for one amazing kiss that didn& #39;t happen," was my sentiment.

"Why not get it over with already?"

So we kissed.
Over the past few months, the world has kinda melted into an unrecognizable mess of uncertainty, misery, suffering, and terror. I& #39;ve been feeling it especially hard and things haven& #39;t really gotten better.

But, all I need is one consistently good thing and she& #39;s that for me rn.
Paislee is one of the most kind-hearted, reliable, considerate, empathetic, and warm people I& #39;ve ever met. I still get butterflies when she& #39;s around. I still do double-takes when I see her to really come to terms with just how gorgeous she is.

I have no clue how she exists.
Paislee has been my rock, my comfort, my pride and joy all year long. She has actively made everything better by simply being herself.

She& #39;s such a genuinely wonderful person, and the fact that I& #39;m lucky enough to get to know her so well blows my mind. I& #39;m so fortunate.
Paislee is more than a girlfriend to me.

She& #39;s my biggest supporter, my best counselor, my partner in crime, my cuddle buddy, and my friend.

In a world where nothing else has been consistent or dependable, I& #39;m so thankful to have her in my corner making everything better.
Paislee is one of the best people in the whole wide world and I& #39;m so lucky and so thankful to get to call her my girlfriend. I& #39;m gonna fight tooth and nail to be just as good to her as she is to me.

Anyway that& #39;s my lil simping thread have fun on Twitter guys.
