I'm quite a passive person when dealing with the topic of love,
when the meaning of affection is brought to my imagination, you're name is initially slandered into my mind.
Not for you're ravishing good looks, or you're marvelous taste in music but just the fact that I dont have the energy or time to teach and explain each one of my imperfections to a new person who pretends they want to listen.
And even when I try to, no one seems to listen as intently as you did, you set my standards, and it's the small things that encourages my heart.
Like the fact that you take the time to spell out each word fully, when we text. How you worry about the stupidest things! The way you used to hug me from behind and make me feel protected, and how you know I like tea instead of coffee. You take my hints, you understand my signals, and the simple words "I love you." makes it all worth it for me. These characterics are you, you are my standard. and now becuase of you everyone else is below it.
