Love has Entered the Chat
Dear Uche,
Do you know that I love you? Maybe you do, but do you know how much? I long for the times we spend together on the phone, so much so that I don’t get much sleep because I am so excited for morning when I get to start my day talking to you. You make me feel beautiful, smart, safe, loved, adored, every single thing I have wanted to feel from the man that I am with. Today we talked on the phone for 3.5 hours and I could have gone another 3.5 hours if we had the time because talking to you feels as natural as breathing. You are such an easy going and fun guy to talk to and you always entertain whatever mood I am in. You give the most thoughtful advice about all things work to relationships. You show that you are serious and intentional about me and that turns me so deeply that sometimes I have not-so-pure thoughts about me and you. All this to say, you feel like home and that means you are my person.
It is so sexy how you keep trying to dance around the fact that you love me already and you don’t want to out right tell me. Nothing is more precious to me than this. The way you show me you love me and by showing that you care about me from 8000+ miles away. You are attentive to my texts and calls and always give me fulsome responses to everything I say. You FaceTime and call me whenever you get a free moment during the work day and every single evening until you go to bed. You talk about me to everyone who will listen and if you FaceTime me while you are out, I know I am going to meet one of your many friends. You include me in important decisions and you give me the best gossip about people I don’t even know. You are somehow now my best friend and, now, the man I love all in such a short time.
Not only do I hope that we do something crazy like have a secret marriage, I will actively pursue this with you when I get there because you’re the diamond I’ve been searching for in these rough streets. It’s likely you are reading this now because we have gotten married and I wanted you to have this artifact of our love. Just know I have loved you for longer than you’ve been trying to hide that you love me. We truly are two peas in pod.
I love you, my precious little pea :)
With all my heart,
Vicc
