Almost all girls dream of the day when they finally get to marry that special guy and live happily ever after. While life isn’t always a fairytale, it’s still a warm fuzzy feeling to think about that day in white surrounded by those you love while celebrating your love.
That day isn’t only about the wedding. It’s about the next step into forever with someone you can’t imagine doing life without. There will certainly be both good and bad days, and then other days you can’t stand the sight of one another. But in the end, you still choose to love.
So to my future husband, this is for you:
Dear Future Husband,
Hi, future wifey here. Maybe I’ve already met you, maybe I haven’t. Either way, you’re going to be in my life. It’s really crazy to think about you getting down on one knee some day and asking me to be your life partner forever. It’s exciting though! I can’t wait to experience life and all kinds of new things with you.
First, a few thanks are in order. Thank you for choosing me, out of the billions of people on this planet, to be yours. Thank you for still loving me even when I don’t act very lovable. Thank you for still thinking I’m beautiful even with unkempt hair and no makeup on. Thank you for sharing with my hopes and dreams while continually encouraging me to reach for the stars.
Now for a few apologies. I’m sorry for the times I upset you, even if it wasn’t intentionally. I’m sorry that I don’t always want to talk after an argument. I’m sorry if I don’t always give you the attention and care that you deserve. I’m sorry for always wanting to plan everything in advance, even if I don’t need to worry about it right now. I’m sorry for when my quirks finally annoy you. I’m sorry I can be slow with folding the laundry or doing dishes.
When I think about the future, I don’t just see the wedding. While I’m sure that will be an amazing day, I see all the nights we’ll stay up watching dumb movies. I see the days we try to cook new recipes, but maybe end up getting food because what we made was gross. I see the day we finally get to move into our first real home and live out of boxes for a few days. I see is getting to snuggle up on the couch while excitedly discussing names for our first child. I see us getting to host our first holiday(s) for our families. I see us getting to grow together in ways I never thought were possible with other people.
I have wondered about you for so long, and I hope you have wondered about me too. You are going to be the light of my life. You are my perfectly imperfect match, and I can only dream of the wonderful adventures we’ll have together throughout our life. I already know I’ll love you fiercely and passionately.
I can’t wait to call you my husband.
