“Maybe you’re just too scared that someone might actually want to be with you…Because then you wouldn’t be able to hide behind your books, or your frickin’ telescope, or your faith. No, no, you know the real reason why you’re scared? It’s cause you wanna be with me too. ” - Langdon from A Walk to Remember

I remember that night. We’re laying down on the couch together. You were holding me in your arms where security and warmth surrounded me. You watched one of my favorite movies with me. One of the movies that I watch over and over again. And when we both heard those words come from Langdon’s mouth, you said to me “that sounds like a person I know.” I admit, I was scared. I was afraid of falling in love again, especially to someone I haven’t known for that long. You didn’t know me that well, my life, my history, what I wanted in life. All you knew of me was that girl who likes bowling, who is sweet, nice, and loves having fun. And I wonder why? Why me? And I thought it was too soon. I broke up with someone who I thought I’d be with for a long time. But I only found that he wasn’t for me. He couldn’t handle the way I was and it made me unhappy…

…But then I got to know you. We have common grounds which makes our evolving relationship easier. But there was more to it than common grounds. You’re a fun guy, a goof ball, a kid at heart (which I totally love), you have goals in life that you’re working to achieve, and patient. We were totally compatible, everyone saw it. We clicked like no other. It totally surprised me. Gradually my fear of being with someone disappeared because I fell in love with you.

So it’s been a year and a day, and I still get the tingles in my tummy when I get to see you.
