Michael

Mike, I love you!

You are so obscenely unique and refreshing, and sometimes a pain the ass but the best kind (if ever there is one). 
You make me want to laugh and scream at you so many times I lost count.
I often wondered if we’d still end up being in each other’s lives if we hadn't met when we did – because I kind of feel we would anyway, like it would be way to cruel for the universe to revolve any other way. 
I mean the combination (I wouldn't call it chemistry since that word is too mainstream) yes, the combination is incomparable.

First, I wish I could be as non-judgmental and as open minded as you are. 

I think it’s so amazing that you accept everything about everyone and that you let them be. 

You are the most unbiased and non-stereotypical person I know, honestly. 

You stand for truth and what is right – that pretty much sums it up.

Second, your patience – ah-mah-zing! Especially with me, let's be honest for a moment here:

I can be pretty irritating at times, but you always wait it out. 

You’re pretty awesome.

Third, your beautiful soul – I know you have been “friend-zoned” quite a few times, but trust me when I tell you this; 

those girls don’t stand a chance with you.

In my eyes, no girl would be good enough for you.

And sometimes I worry if you’re too nice for your own good.

Fourth, your resilience – I know sometimes life can be difficult for you and you’re not the most optimistic person at times.

But you fight for happiness, you may let the negativity sink in for a day or two, 

But you always fight back, and bounce back. 

And when you do, you spread that happiness and positivity around. 

Because of all this and more, you are sensitive to other’s feelings and that makes you so much of a better person than you would be if not for these experiences. 

And for someone who had emotionally been through what you have, I think no one would overcome and turn it around better than you.

But I hope you know that you are one of the most important pillars of strength in my life and you and I are going to be in each other’s lives for a very long time. 

If I could be half the person you are, I’d consider myself a pretty darn good person.
