Letters To My Crush

Eric

Dear Eric,

For you it really was love at first sight, but not in the typical way. I almost swore you were the guy for me the first time I met, but I fall in love at first sight too easily and there were far too many variables to even see that as a plausible outcome. But two years later I finally got to know you and that's when I really knew I could have spent the rest of my life with you. It was easy to fall head over heels with someone like you. 

You were excessively and completely yourself, which is hard to come by in today's day and age. One of your most redeeming and equally scary traits is the more people dislike you, the more you don't seem to care. You like Rubik's Cube's, and video games, and I've never seen one person spend so much money on junk food and mountain dew, and monster, but you were the one to teach me that monetarily speaking buying a 2-liter is smarter than a single bottle of pop. 

Today you're quite close and yet still so far away. A little while back you started dating a girl who I can't bring myself to like, even when she makes you happy. Even though I know it wouldn't have worked out between I can't help myself from thinking that maybe if we gave it try, we both would have been just a little bit happier right now. 

It maybe a bit selfish saying I thought we'd be perfect, but who knows, we could have been. I think are personalities would have brought out the best in each other, but we're not together and we're just letting each idly live our own day to day, which is okay I guess.

But i wanted to let you know that I'll be here waiting around, and I'll get by making you smile or laugh every chance I get. Seeing your eyes crinkle a little bit whenever you're excited. Maybe one day I'll wake up next to you, get to fool around making waffles or pancakes in the morning, being goofy together, like what something inside of tells me should be. Now, now I'll just be, and wait and see what one day holds for me, for you, and for the you and me.

Yours Always,

Rosie <3
