my FRENCHIE —

i’m watching the movie THE NOTEBOOK — the one that you don’t want to watch with me because it’s too girly, but it’s got me thinking about you.

i love you and i have all of these crazy feelings for you because my trust level for you just went up 100%. lately, that seems to be the most important thing that i’m learning about. it’s never been tangible for me — i just felt the feeling of trusting or not trusting someone and was never fully aware of it. however, after these past few weeks, and all the sharing and opening up that we’ve been doing, it’s been different. i know how it feels to feel safe even as imperfect as i am. you still make me feel safe.

when i’m with you, i feel like i’m me and it’s okay to be me with you. i can trust you to not hurt me and that you will love me regardless of whether i’m perfect or not or if i made a mistake or not.

thanks for helping me to feel alive.

love,
M
