As I enjoy the newness and excitement of my current relationship, I’ve realized quite a lot in the few months we’ve been dating. It’s not anything frightening or inadequate; it’s all the favorable and desirable qualities my boyfriend possesses. I guess you can categorize this as somewhat of a thank you letter, but moreover of simple things I want him to be aware of.
You make me laugh harder than I can even handle.
I’m going to start out with the easiest and probably most anticipated quality which is making me laugh. Besides all the unwanted tickling that practically makes me lose breath, you have the goofiest personality that just naturally makes me giggle every five seconds. Whether it be some corny joke or you making cute faces, I can never resist smiling.
You treat me better than anyone I’ve ever been with.
Sure, I’ve had my fair share of being treated like a princess in previous relationships. Along with being called beautiful and being showered with love. But I can easily say nothing compares to what I have now. It’s only been three months and I already get treated five times better than I ever have. Opening car doors for me, cooking me food without having to ask me if I’m hungry, and going places I know you don’t want to go. But there’s much more than just those simple acts of kindness. I can easily see how much you genuinely care for me and truly enjoy my presence. It almost unbelievable considering I’ve never been used to being this spoiled.
You actually talk problems out with me.
I’m not gonna sugarcoat this relationship but at the same time, I’m also not gonna put the entire relationship out there for everyone to know. We’ve had a few arguments already; every couple is going to eventually. I’ll admit, there are times where I think I still don’t deserve to be with you. I’ve made quite some mistakes and I’ve been hurt to such a high degree. But somehow you still fight for me and work to make it better as all couples should. I can easily say that no one has ever gone as far as you to make things right. You don’t blame me for everything; you actually explain the issues and express your feelings in an effective way. I am simply grateful for this. A relationship can’t be a relationship without communication.
You call me more than anyone ever does.
I guarantee that if anyone looked through my call list and scrolled, all you’d see is his name. I absolutely love that you call me at unexpected times. You call me on your lunch breaks at work, when you’re away at drill, and on your way home from work. You call me just to hear my voice even if it’s only for thirty seconds.
You’re not only my boyfriend, but my best friend.
It’s one thing to be attracted to someone and them liking you back, but it’s another when you can gossip to them or when it’s a judge free zone. With you, I know I can complain to you about how my shift sucked for that day and you’d listen to me and even share similar stories (the joy of us working in retail). I’d tell you about my latest friend drama and you’d actually care enough to be on my side and tell me what you think. You ask me for opinions on certain decisions and I give you my honest one as real friends do. You don’t judge me for my imperfections and insecurities. I can easily call you my best friend with these qualities.
You’re not like most guys I know.
Let me just say it. In this generation, many guys just do not need to be in relationships. I’m not saying all, but a lot of men like to cheat, lie, and manipulate. With you, I don’t have to wonder if you’re out with another girl. With you, I don’t have to worry about what you could be hiding on your phone because I know you have nothing to hide. Hell, you don’t even have a passcode. And with you, I don’t have to worry about not knowing where you are because you either tell me before you go or you’re already with me. So thanks for not being one of those guys.
Now in all honesty, I never would’ve expected us to hit it off so well. I’ve had such bad luck with boys since my worst heartbreak but you came along and showed me what happiness was again. You caught me so off guard and I was amazed. I was head over heels and you saved me. I couldn’t be any more blessed that you gave me a chance. And I know this sounds cliche, but I feel like we’ve been together for years. It’s incredible how comfortable and playful we’ve gotten with each other in the span of three months.
My darling, you are the epitome of everything wonderful. I adore you in every way possible. After you read this, I hope you understand how truly grateful I am to be your girlfriend and how deeply in love with you I am. You’ve changed my life tremendously within these short months and with that being said, I hope to spend many more with you in the future. Life wouldn’t be an adventure without you by my side.
Finally, here’s the predicted thank you I needed to mention. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me and for providing all the qualities that tender to my needs. I wanted you to be aware that you make me the happiest I’ve ever been. I wanted you to be aware of all the things that contribute to the happiness you bring me which was everything I wrote above. And know that I love you with every bone in my body, every fiber of my being, and with all my heart.
