I love...
... seeing your eyes light up with happiness whenever you see me;
... how you want to be with me so much that you started reading on how I can go to the US even if I told you my mom is working on that;
... when you called me up on your layover in Germany and spent twenty-two dollars just to talk to me for two minutes;
... spending hours just hanging with you and talking about anything;
... when we would plot about the chaplain;
... the respect you give me that you never asked for anything but willing accepted everything that I gave;
... hearing your southern accent even if you’re cussing;
... watching you sleep so peacefully;
... that you don’t take me for granted and you give to me as much as you receive;
... the heart warming memories we’re slowly building together;
... when you took the courage to have something I told you to get translated by Filipinos at your FOB,
... and asking them later on to translate something to Filipino what you wanted to say to me.
I love also...
... you being patient with me the night I drunk dialed you in Kuwait
... knowing that you are so happy with me its like you want to shout to the whole world how much I mean to you
... when you supported me as a friend when I was having a difficult time with Tim
... that you were honest with me and told me what I needed to hear when things got more rougher between me and him
... your patience everyday that I was at work and couldn’t talk to you
... the way you surprised me sending me bouquet of white roses a few days before Christmas
... it when something quirky I said or did makes you laugh because I know you’re not making fun of me
... that you enjoy my naughty side as much as my behaved side
... how you called five people just to find out Canada’s country code so that you can tell me that your internet went down and make sure I’m not pissed
... that you’ve always been candid to me even if I asked the most difficult or soul-baring questions
... the way you take my breath away and make me gush every time you say something really sweet to me
... that you never put me aside even if you are with your kids, you bring me along the ride and the laughter
... when you ask about different aspects of me and even going to long lengths to learn Filipino.
I loved...
... how you changed your Facebook relationship status
... that you always believed a person like me existed and you never lost your faith on it
... when you sing. Even if they’re country music
... and you sharing the country music you love especially when they remind you of me
... when you patiently assure me (even if I’m being silly) when I got teary eyed when we talk about morbid things like your death photo
... that you include me now in your plans and dreams
... the way you charmed me by just being you
... your strength and humbleness you instilled in me knowing how difficult and big your sacrifices are serving your country
... that you see yourself not unique in that area and never bragged about it
... that you try so hard, despite the distance, to reach out to me and let me know I’m in your mind and in your heart
... knowing you put my picture on your phone so that you can see me anytime you turn it on
... when you told me I’m everything you’ve ever wanted
... that I’m the first and last (adult) person that comes in your mind as you wake up and go to bed
... when you told me that you don’t want me to belong to you because I’m not a piece of property,
... instead you want me to be with you and be your best friend and lover and equal forever
... that your attraction to me is beyond the physical aspect.
I'm loving...
... looking forward to spending more time with you and discover more beautiful and wonderful things about you,
... and making the list of the things I love about you get longer.
But most of all I love...
... being loved by you,
... and how much I love loving you.
