Before falling in love or even knowing what love was I was caught up in my vanity and narcissism rather than caring for others and their emotions. Therefore, when I began to prioritize his feelings over mine, I knew I was deeply in love. This is extremely evident in the fact of having to move 180 miles away. It’s not that far in distance, but the fact that we are still so young and we used to be able to see each other every day is the hardest part. We were both torn apart by this news.
