loving me
forgiving me
kissing me
hugging me
cuddling with me
making love to me
introducing me to your mom
introducing me to your friends
telling your friends about me
taking me out on date nights
coming over and spending time with me
letting me come over to spend time with me
feeding me
buying me things I need
making me breakfast
making me lunch
making me dinner
putting on shows and movies for me
buying me KitKat
sharing with me your ice cream
taking me to adventures
traveling with me
taking me to the casino for my first real experience at it
bringing me to shawarma night with your friends
taking me to balkan for amazing steak, goulash, and crepes
sending me lovely emails
sending me sweet messages
sharing pictures with me
sharing your time with me
spending your energy and emotions on me
staying with me through thick and thin
sharing my photos on Facebook
making me learn great lessons
being brutally honest with me
being my rock
being my source of strength and optimism
inspiring me to go for my dreams
making me laugh
making me gigil
stroking my hair as I lie on your lap
telling me I don't need makeup to be pretty
telling me you love my body
asking me why I'm so beautiful
telling me I always look lovely when we go out
telling me that you still see a future with me
choosing to be with me
wanting me to be one day the mother of your children
never giving up
being patient
being caring
being loving
being understanding
trying every day to make me happy
always making an effort
being the friend that I need at a trying time in my life
teaching me to be strong
inspiring me to want to be a better person
making me realize the things I need to improve on
remembering the songs I like
sharing your favorite movies and songs and shows
introducing me to Silicon Valley
taking me swimming
taking me to a cool speakeasy
giving me flowers
sending a car over
picking me up
holding the umbrella for me under the rain
holding the small of my back while we walk
reaching out for my hand so you can hold it
whispering that you love me when we're out
serving food on my plate
calling me and talking on the phone even though you'd prefer it in person
getting a second cellphone when communication was bad before
getting rid of your online dating profiles
listening to me while I talk
always being gentle and kind with your words
always being calm
allowing me to be your girlfriend
letting you be my boyfriend
giving me many chances
being so thoughtful
helping me with investment banking
picking up the tab when we can split it
encouraging me to get a visa
creating lovely collages of our pictures
leaving me messages that I can read when I wake up
being a gift to me and other people
coming into my life
choosing to stay in my life
making a reservation at a place that doesn't require it just because you're thoughtful that way
touching me in place that you know I like
looking into my eyes and telling me you love me
wrapping your arms around me so we can spoon because you know I love being the little spoon
fixing the bed before you go down the loft
printing me pictures that I can display at my place
offering to carry my things
offering to even clean my bathroom
taking me to French movie date night
lending me your sweater when I was feeling cold
All these and more are more than enough reasons for me to be happy. Today and for the days to come, I choose to be grateful. I am grateful for having you in my life. You're right. I did hit the jackpot.
I love you.
