Dear Guy whom I have prayed for,

Thank You. Thank you for coming into my life and showing me what it is like to live. Thank you for showing me how to be joyful beyond measure. Thank you for showing me what it is like to be treated me like a woman. You came into my life when I was down and you lifted me off the ground. I would be lying if I said I was okay with us being just friends, because it is obvious that I would love to be able to call you mine and treat you like the man you should be treated.

I prayed for a man like you to come into my life. I prayed for a honest, loyal, humorous man. I prayed for a man that would bring out the real me, the good side of me, and would teach me how to open my heart again. I praise you, you have endured so much and now you have to worry about me. You have seen me at my worst, and now you have seen me at my best. I am my best when you are by my side.

Many men can say that they have seen a woman naked, but not how you have seen me naked. You have seen me at my most vulnerable state. Even with my clothes on, you have seen more of me than anyone else ever will. You saw me naked, but not physically. You have seen me when I was at my lowest. You saw me when I was laying next to you in the dorm lobby on the couch and I was crying. You held my hands and rubbed my back and told me that everything was going to be okay. You are wise beyond your years.

Thank you for willing to see me past all of my flaws.

Thank you for making me talk to you and open up to you even when I didn't want to.

Thank you for continuing to be by my side even when I did open up.

Thank you for believing in me when I did not even believe in myself.

Thank you for showing me that the man that I have prayed for does exist.

Finally, thank you for seeing me past everything I had been through, You did not leave my side even though every other man has.

There is only one thing that could make everything amazing, and that would be me being able to call you mine. But I know that I can't. Because even though you are texting me now and telling me how good of a woman I am, you have commitment issues. I think you are scared that I will leave, but like I have assured you at least three-hundred and seven times, I am not going anywhere. But I do understand where you are coming from, that is why I am not pushy. I am going to give you the time that you need. You are an amazing man. You are humble, you are kind, and you value others opinions more than your own. You are the true image of the guy that I want to spend my time with. I do not believe in love at first sight, but I believe in that click. We had that click. I have only felt that one time in my life, and it was with you.

I will never give up on you. I accept you for you, flaws and all. You tell me that the nice guys always finish last, but I think that the nice girl is finishing last in this race.

No matter what happens, even if we just stay friends and do not become anything more, I will always be thankful that you have came into my life. Do I think that I will ever find someone like you? No, and that is okay. I wouldn't want anyone else but you.

If I could go back and do everything over again, I would do exactly what I did the first time around. I would go through the hardships again if that meant being lead to you. I would make all of the stupid mistakes again if that was what it took. I would not do a single thing differently.

I don't expect you to know that this letter is to you, I don't even expect you to read it. But if you do, just let me say this, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are the only man who has walked into my life and made me think that everything was going to be okay. You have seen me down to my core. You have witnessed me when I am low and when I am happy. You have brought me pure happiness. I will always remember you.

Love Always,

The woman who has prayed for a man like you

1 Corinthians 13:4-8: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
