My Love,

Three years ago, I thought was pretty sure as to what I wanted when it came to a relationship, but then I met you. Let’s be honest, all those years ago I had never anticipated that there would be an “us.”

At the time, I had a boyfriend, and I saw you as the friend who shared the hilarious jokes with me, and made my worst days better. I will never forget the days we would “distract” each other in class and go to the cafeteria to grab a bite to eat afterward.

The fondest and one of the earlier memories I will always carry has to be our late night conversations over Facebook. The one that the best, has to be the time where we spammed each other with sloth memes, need I say more?

One of my biggest regrets was having to turn you down, for obvious reasons, when you asked me out those three years ago. If I had known it was going to eventually lead to a fallout, and to us not talking for two years, I would have done what I could to savor our friendship.

(Obviously, this part of life has passed us, and we’re in a much different, and better, place now. I just felt this needed to be said.)

I have absolutely no idea what randomly made me think of you after those two years. Or even what prompted me to send you that friend request almost two months ago now. Let me tell you what, though, it is definitely the best decision I've ever made.

Oh, how beautiful our love is. I enjoy how even after not speaking for a while, we picked up right where we left off... and this time, traveled even further.

From zoo dates to exploring places we’ve never been (that's what she said), the days I spend with you are the ones I look forward to most.

Sometimes, I don't feel you realize, even though it has only been two months, you have made me the happiest I've ever been in a long time.

Plus, even though it's my fifth time through, you finally get to watch “The Office.” Because apparently, you felt it was a show you shouldn't watch alone.

To me, that is an honor because I get to share the greatness, the goals and laughs of one of my favorite series with you.

After everything, I’ve come to realize that everything happens for a reason; and good things come to those who wait.

To me, even greater things greet those who sometimes have to have patience for just a little bit longer. Though it may have taken some time, the best thing I had to wait for was you.

Love,

Your Girlfriend

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right?
