To the guy who thinks he cares too much,
Let me put this in the simplest way possible: you don't. You don't care too much. In fact, you care just enough. The loving way you hold me in a hug and kiss my forehead are just a small fraction of the caring things you do. I could write a whole article about what an amazing person you are, but for right now, I'm just going to put your mind at ease and tell you the caring things you do.
You may seem like you're being overbearing but in reality, you have a big heart and don't want to see me get hurt. I'm fragile but have tough skin. You know that the world is a scary place, so you want me to stay safe. No guy has ever done that for me, other than my dad. Being on my back about going to classes and taking medication are mundane things that I already know how to do, but recently, I've needed the extra push to get things done. Having you here to physically move me so I will go about my day may be annoying to you, but it shows me just how much you genuinely care about me.
You managed to turn a 15-minute walk into a 3-minute sprint solely because you were scared for me. If that doesn't say "I care", I don't know what does. You knew that I could take care of myself, but you wanted to do this for me. I may have been mad at you, but I saw how much you cared, and that honestly scared me. I'm not used to having someone like you care about me in this kind of way. You even set everything up, just for your sanity. This may be something small, but it means so much more than that.
You are willing to share your biggest passion with me. Though I may not want to learn about it at all, I will ask questions and support you. Only those who truly trust and care for someone will go so in-depth with someone about their passion, and I feel so fortunate to be one of those people. On the flip side, you were willing to support my passions and obsessions just as openly as I was. You may not enjoy them as much as I do, but you give them a try, which is more than I expected when you entered my life.
To sum it up, you are such a caring man, which I am so thankful for. You're right by my side when I feel like trash and when I excel. Sure, sometimes you can be a little annoying with how much you care, but I know that it comes from a place of love and want for me to get better. I'm not perfect, but you treat me as though I am. You accept me for who I am, flaws and all, something I am so insecure about. Thank you for your caring. I hope you realize just how much it means to me.
