LETTER: DEAR SOULMATE

Dear Soulmate,

Thank you for existing. Without having met you yet, I can tell you that you make my life better in every way possible and I that I love you more than I can put into words.

Thank you for getting through all the awkward moments I no doubt caused because of how nervous I felt around you in the beginning. Thank you for shattering the wall I know I put up, being patient with me, and making me trust you enough to be able to let you in. As you are probably already aware, letting someone in is a big thing for me, and I know you must have had to really push through to get to that point with me. Thank you for slowly letting me know that I can come to you with anything and letting me cry on your shoulder, vent about every small thing in my life, and scream with joy over the good things.

Thank you for making me laugh so much and enjoy life so much more. Thank you for laughing off a lot of the silly things I do and making me love myself more because you love me.

Thank you for dealing with my crazy family and somehow wanting to be apart of it. Thank you for proving to me that you will stay through think and thin, way past the point where anyone else I've ever loved has before. Thank you for accepting my flaws. In return, I promise to accept all of yours. Actually, I know all of your flaws will make me love you a little bit more.

Thank you for letting me show you a different side of myself than I have ever shown to anyone before. Being the love of my life, I'm sure you know that I show different sides of myself depending on how I feel about the people I'm around and the situation I'm in. Thank you for understanding and embracing my good and my bad traits and being comfortable enough to show me yours.

Thank you for fighting for me when I start to have doubts and try to walk away. Thank you for making me feel that I deserve you.

Thank you for making me feel handsome and reassuring me when I start to feel bad about myself. Thank you for getting past my insecurities and somehow instilling in me that you will love me no matter what. Thank you for making me have a renewed passion for living simply because you're in my life and you love me.

Thank you for standing by me whether I'm right or wrong, and occasionally getting me to see why I am wrong. Thank you for exposing me to so many different things that I never would have known without you. Thank you for showing me a new way to live. Thank you for making me a better person and lifting me up to a higher place instead of dragging me down to a lower one.

So many of the things that I do would not every be possible without you by my side. You make me a better and stronger person by simply being in the room. You are my anchor in stormy seas, and I hope I am the same for you. I am sorry if I don't show you or tell you enough how much I love you and how much you truly mean to me, but know that you mean more than the world to me and I love you from the bottom of my heart. If I can say this with complete certainty before I've ever met you, just think how much I will mean it after you're in my life.

You are truly a special person. I know that without a doubt and I haven't even met you yet. I can guarantee that we are going to have those moments that we have huge fights and possibly even feel like we hate each other, but I know that we love each other enough that we will come back together and our disagreements will make us stronger.

Though I don't know where we'll meet, what you look like, what you're passionate about, or how many children you want to have, I know that somehow everything will line up for us and we will complete each other like pieces of a puzzle. There's not a lot I am sure of, but I know I can promise you that I will love and stand by you completely for as long as I am breathing no matter what happens with either one of us in this life we will share. You are in no way perfect, but you are in every way perfect for me. I can't wait to find you and start living this life that is ours.

Love,
