Dear Alex,

Yesterday we fought, and then today we fought again. We worked it out, but it reminded me that this is something we are always working on. I’m glad we’re working on it together.  I’m glad we’re on the same team. 

Love.

“If you want something to last forever, you treat it differently. You shield it and protect it. You never abuse it. You don’t expose it to the elements. You don’t make it common or ordinary. If it ever becomes tarnished, you lovingly polish it, until it gleams like new. It becomes special, because you have made it so, and it grows more beautiful and precious as time goes by.” — F. Burton Howard

Dear Alex,

I love you more than I love coffee in the morning. 

That’s a lot. 

Hugs, kisses and bunny ears,

Love

Dear Alex,

I’m writing you this letter to tell you that you are the one. The one I was waiting for. I didn’t know I was waiting until I met you. You didn’t steal my heart, you filled it up. You didn’t catch my eye immediately, but since you did, I haven’t been able to look away. You never swept me off my feet, you made me infinitely more stable and balanced. I don’t need you, but I never want to have to experience this life without you. You’ve helped me be the best version of myself - thank you for that. I’m writing you this letter as the first of many, to tell you that I love you, that I am in love with you, that you make my life richer in so many ways. You also irritate me more than I thought possible, but I want to spend every annoying minute with you. 

hugs, kisses and bunny ears,

Love.

“When I say, Be my lover, I don’t mean, Let’s have an affair. I don’t mean, Sleep with me. I don’t mean, Be my secret. I want us to go back down to that root. I want you to be the one who loves me. I want to be the one who loves you.” — David Levithan, The Lover’s Dictionary
