You have been a shining light in my life these past six months and with each day that passes, I fall for you more and more.

I wasn’t expecting you, you came out of nowhere and entered my life so suddenly. In the blink of an eye, I was slowly falling for you. From the moment I met you, I felt as if I had known you for years and you were one of my oldest friends.

I would say you had me at "hello," but truthfully, you had me at “I made you a playlist," cliché? I don’t care. It won me over. Our bond and same love over music was the first step in making me fall for you. I’ll never forget contemplating standing you up on our first date because I was so nervous and thought “this probably won’t even be worth it." Thank God I got out of that car. We talked for hours upon hours and I didn’t want it to end.

Thank you for being one of the few people to make me laugh until I cry and understanding my weird dry humor. You’re the only other person I know who loves The Office almost as much as I do. That automatically makes you a keeper. You have this way of story-telling, a way that I know I’ll never be able imitate, but I absolutely love. I know if my day is bad, I can basically expect a cute baby animal meme to show up on my phone. I love our weird jokes, the things that if we tried to explain to others we’d get weird looks about. I adore your guitar playing, even if you think you’re bad, I think you’re a real Led Zeppelin (although this is the only time I’ll actually tell you that). I even adore the way you “try” to help me cook then take all the credit when it’s done.

I know I have a temper and can be stubborn, but you sure do handle me well. I know it’s not always easy to be as nice to me as you are because, man, am I difficult sometimes. I couldn’t appreciate you more for working with me on that and never losing your temper with me. Thank you for being patient with me, learning my habits and accepting that sometimes it’s hard for me to talk when I’m upset. Thank you for forcing me to talk things out because that is one of my biggest flaws. I bottle everything up and hold everything inside and with you I’m a waterfall. You’re strong when I’m weak and you help pick me up just when I need it. You are one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met in my entire life, truly selfless in all ways. You would drop anything if someone needed you. You are also the least judgmental person I’ve ever met. I admire your ability to try and see the good in absolutely everyone.

I don’t think I can thank you enough for helping me so much in such a short amount of time. For pulling me out of a hole I thought I was stuck in forever. Time and time again, day after day, you continue to treat me like a queen. You are strong, courageous, and kind, truly one of the most amazing men I’ve ever met in my entire life. I want you to know that I am constantly learning and looking up to you (not just literally). You’ve taught me that I am beautiful and when you tell me, I believe it. You’ve taught me that I can do virtually anything and constantly encourage me to believe in myself. You’ve shown me my self-worth and to never accept anything less than what I truly deserve. Although I’m still not sure I deserve someone as good as you, I thank God for you every day. You have truly shown me the sun, moon, and stars all in 6 months and I can't wait to see whats up ahead for us. So here is a small "thank you" for you, just to show you that even when we argue and I’m dramatic I’m so thankful to have you. I adore you.

Love always, Carrots.
