Dear Future Soul-mate,

I hope one day you will get the chance to read this letter, and look back on your life before you met me. I hope you’re doing well and that you have been blessed with the life you have always wanted. I don’t think we have met yet, and that’s OK. Whoever you are, and wherever you are, I know that fate will bring us together one day.

I cannot wait for the day that we meet, and I hope it’s love at first sight. And if we somehow have met already, I cannot wait to find out who you are. I hope I’ll be good enough for you. You don’t know what you’re getting yourself into, but then again, neither do I. But I’m sure we’ll be great together.

I’d like to warn you, though—I drink too much coffee, and I toss and turn in my sleep. I can be impatient and quick to anger, and sometimes I crave alone time and moments of silence. I don’t always make my bed, and I take days to put away my laundry. I’m an awful cook, so I hope you like takeout. I get homesick a lot and I cry very easily. But despite all of that, I hope you’ll love my flaws and failures and give me what I deserve. I’ll do the same for you, and I promise to never leave you.

It’s a crazy idea that there is someone out there who is made perfectly for me. I do believe that everyone has a soul-mate, and whether you find them one day or not, they’re out there somewhere. I hope I find you, and I hope you find me. I can only imagine what you look like and feel like and what our life together will be like. I have no doubt in the back of my mind that everything will be great.

I don’t know you and I don’t know anything about you. I don’t even know your name. But somehow I already know that I will fall so in love with you in the blink of an eye. I can only imagine what you’ve been through. I’ve been through a lot, and I bet you have too. I want to learn all about it one day. I want to learn about your past –your life, your family, and even your first love.

As I’m sitting here writing this in 2016, you may be in a relationship right now. In order for us to meet, you’ll probably get your heart broken by whoever you are with. I'm sorry. It hurts me knowing that this has to happen, but in the end, it will be worth it, if we are supposed to end up together. We will go through many tough things without each other, but that will make me appreciate you even more when you finally do arrive in my life, and vice-versa.

I love you already, so wait for me. We will meet when the time is right.

Sincerely,

Your Future Soul-Mate
