Dear Future Hubby,

I feel like this is weird…mostly because I hate the word “Hubby,” but I don’t think I can write a whole letter referring to you as “husband.” I hope you exist because the idea of being a cat lady sounds like it would really suck.

I will find out one day if you are an athlete, nerd, video gamer, or meat head (please no). But until you reveal yourself, in a super cool proposal which will include puppies or a hot air balloon, here are some things you need to know!

We are getting a puppy.

I refer to all dogs as puppies. I really hope you’re not allergic, because you better get some meds. I love animals, especially puppies.

I want to travel.

You will know how crazy and excited I am about seeing the world. I have a goal of seeing every state in the US and all of Europe, and I hope you are there with me making insane memories.

I am a kid at heart.

In 10 years, I see us binge watching old movies, having water balloon fights, trying interesting foods, going to cooking or painting classes, hiking, and laughing as much as we can.

PLEASE LIKE SPORTS.

I love basketball, baseball, and yes NASCAR (please hate on me).

I am a strong person.

I have grown into a very strong and independent person. I take pride in accomplishing things on my own.

My girlfriends will always be important.

My girlfriends will always have a place in my heart. They have been here a lot longer than you have, and I hope you love them as much as I do.

I want a yellow house.

I know this is a little picky (and probably can be negotiated). I am going to be that “How I Met Your Mother” fan and say every time you see yellow, you are closer to true love! LOL JK, I really just like yellow houses with white frames, I think they are adorbs.

I am a hopeless romantic.

As a strong believer in love stories, I want us to be stupidly in love even when I am 89, and barely kicking. I want random flowers, to overuse "I love you", and to sing on the top of our lungs during long car rides. I want our kids and grand-kids to know that true love never fails by just looking at us.

I have been hurt before.

I have been emotionally stomped on before. I have been used, taken advantage of, and taken for granted, so if I tell you I love you, believe that I mean it.

Side note: When you propose to me PLEASE make sure I get a manicure and you better have someone video taping because I will probably nag about it for the rest of my life if you don't.

Never give up.

I think this one explains itself, I want to have the happily ever after. And no, I do not mean like the fairy tale where I am being treated like a princess. I mean I want to laugh, stay up late, fight, forgive, love, and smile with my partner (in crime) for life. Believe me, I know I am no walk in the park, but know that I will never stop fighting for us.

I can’t wait to meet you.

Maybe I know you already, and maybe I don’t, but I won’t truly meet you until you get on one knee and save up a sh*t ton (maybe use a ring pop). Just know you will be my best friend and I will be your biggest fan.

Until that day, I am extremely happy with my life right now because I am living to the fullest.
