Dear A,

Well, I’m supposed to be doing homework, but my mind keeps finding its way to thinking about you.

I can’t help but fixate my thoughts on how lucky I am to even have met you. You are simply the most wonderful, intellectual, stimulating, incredible person I have ever had the chance to meet. It seems that with each passing day, I have learned something new about you, and about myself. You’ve shown me the world in ways I’ve never seen it before, taken me places I’ve never been, fed me things I’ve never tried, made me feel emotions I didn’t know existed.

There is so much to be thankful for with you. When we met, neither of us knew the complexities of one another. I can imagine you couldn’t have pictured me to be who I am, and I couldn’t have wished for a more level-headed, sensible, funny and compatible person to spend my days with. 

Any person that I can spend literally every waking moment with for six consecutive months was undoubtedly created just for me. Whether we are contributing to society or bumming around in bed, traveling the country or roaming our little town, visiting art museums or snacking at the drive-in, I have never felt so much like myself.

The past while has been a time where I’ve really been finding myself, learning who I am on the inside and what it is that I want out of life. With you, I am able to shed all facades and be the person that I’ve always wanted to be but too afraid to show. Take it as a compliment; no person I’ve ever met has been able to bring out the real me with such ease like you.

You and I share something special. Something nobody truly understands like we do. And we will always have that.
