    I don’t know what it is about you
    That makes me catch my breathe every time you look at me
    The nerves that make me shake
    Being near your body gives mine this magnetic pull towards you.
    What it is about you?

    I’ve been in love. I’ve been hurt from it, and I’ve felt like floating on a cloud from it.
    I’ve been there. I’ve felt crazy feelings before. And I’ve had my share of “crushes” – but this, this is no childish crush.

    I never fall for anyone like this. I’m so guarded. Too guarded. With SO many expectations because I learned that’s what will protect me.

    I don’t know what it is about you
    But I can’t find a flaw.
    Because even your flaws to others, just make you an even more beautiful person to me. You are such a REAL person. You have passion in your soul. So gentle and so powerful at the same time. Your humility is stunning. You are truly a man in every sense of the word. You are exactly the kind of person I want in my life.
    Is this what it is about you?

    Is that what it is that makes me want to knock down every wall I’ve created. I’ll risk it all and never think twice.

    And God your eyes! The only thing that could make your eyes more perfect would be me inside of them, us together.

    But here comes reality. You have someone else. Although whenever we are together (innocently of course) you can’t deny what we both know we feel. I don’t need to ask if you feel the same because I already know you do. And out of whatever reason, if you feel she is what you want in your life, then so be it. I can respect that. But please be honest with yourself, don’t deny the truth. Don’t be scared to lose the comfort and go out on this crazy limb with me. Maybe we’ll fall flat on our asses, but the thought of what it very well could be is amazing and I would take that leap with you.

    I’ve never met such a perfect person for me.
    That’s exactly what is is about you…

      Whoa. Wait a second – are you the other woman I just wrote about in my letter never sent?

      Truly, the similarities of human condition astound me. Thank you for sharing. I hope the person of whom you write, and of whom I write, decides and follows his heart. It is the sincerest wish of my soul that a man deserving of your clear and evident admiration find his Partner.

      It is the sincerest wish of my soul that we all do.

      <3 <3 <3

      It’s amazing how many people go through this. Just waiting and anticipating when they will make the next move. Waiting patiently, but for one reason or the other they just won’t. And so your stuck being the Best Friend at times and in others just a friend in their convenience. But you don’t care because you love them and your just waiting for that chance.

      He’s a guy, don’t forget that.. jealousy is a powerful emotion and will make guys weigh they’re options more carefully.

      I’m rather floored at how many people have been or are in this position.

      Not trying to be rude, but typically…..you lose ‘em the same way you got him.

      That is love that will endure. And Cynthia…you may lose them the same way you got them but true love fights even when the war feels like it is over. Because love IS something worth fighting for.

      This many people have someone that has somenody else…….Thats sad!!! There is too many people in this world to want somebody elses man/woman.

      I don’t think this letter is about wanting someone elses significant other. This is about finding that person you have an undeniable connection with.

      i totally know how this feels, from experience. what is right will eventually happen, and it may be tough to get there, and it may be tough to see it sometimes, but the things you want are never easy to get. stand by your beliefs, keep an open mind, and to anybody also going through this situation, try not to lose your head, and keep smiling :)

      Sounds like a terminal case of youth and lust to me. Just think about what you could each lose first.
