To My Future One And Only

Dear Future Husband,

I probably haven't met you yet, but I can't wait for the moment when we finally will. We'll start off as strangers, but end up as best friends becoming husband and wife. It's crazy to think that someday we may be looking at this article I have written and the future husband I am addressing this to will finally have a face and name.

I'm sure you will be everything I could ever hope for in a husband. I picture you to be loyal, kind, funny, respectful, understanding, and overall accepting. I know if I choose to say yes to you when you are down on one knee, and I say my vows to you, that you will be all of this and more. How am I so sure? Because I know I wouldn't settle for less than that and I believe in you.

I obviously know you will have similar expectations as well, and I promise to uphold them. I promise to love you until death do us part. I promise to never ever cheat on you. I promise to hold you in the highest regard. I promise to accept you, flaws and all.

You are probably out and about right now doing whatever it is you like to do, but I'm eager to know what makes you happy. I want to know where your favorite spot is, what your favorite hobby is, what your favorite sports team is, I want to know it all because if you love someone shouldn't you know everything about them?

When we're together, I picture us sharing anything and everything with each other. I know I'll be able to tell you things in confidence because I trust you. A huge part of a marriage working is having faith in one another, and I firmly believe that I can entrust you with all my heart knowing you will guard it with all your might.

I don't know if I could ever thank you enough for loving me. I know that myself, and most women, are not always easy to deal with. But what I really appreciate as well is your acceptance. If you're marrying me, you obviously know me inside and out. You've seen the good and the bad, and the fact that you still want to love me for the rest of my existence is mind-boggling.

I know I'm only 20 now and it may seem foolish of me to start talking about this, but the time is approaching where I will be graduating college, getting a job, and having a life on my own. This means that I'll be one step closer to finding you, my husband.

The day will come when we will be living in the same house together, waking up next to each other every morning, coming home to one another after work, and eventually having a beautiful family. Then, before we know it, we'll be gray and old, sitting in our rocking chairs while holding hands, and say to each other "we did it all- together." And I don't know if you could tell, but I can't wait to experience all of that with you.

Love,

Your Future Wife
