buying each other “just becauses.” spending two hours cooking a new recipe and then crying because you have someone to share it with. being giddy every time we walk past our first date spot. picnics under willow trees. the unexpected scent of freshly made cookies at 2pm. someone who’s memorized a list of your favorites and go-tos but written them down just in case. having that phone number, that voice, that eye color that you know you can never forget (not that you will ever want to try). drawers full of love notes. “how did I get so luckys.” trusting that being seen will lead to deeper love instead of increasing distance. watching flowers we planted together grow all summer. squeezing each others hand every time it all feels like a magical dream. believing that every “I love you” is true. finally believing that you’ve found someone who won’t run away.
Do you?
