We've been together since May 19th 2015. The following is a part of Josh's one month essay (including some of my comments):
I wanted to ask you out. Then, an old thought came back up. The tennis alumni couldn't handle a long-distance relationship, and I got scared. I told Manny my thoughts on Monday, the day before I asked you out. He told me not to think and drive all back to LA from Auburn to make sure I ask you out (he knew I was gonna ask anyways, I practically convinced myself talking to him). I guess you can thank him I asked you the 19th and not later (meaning less time together and our anniversary would be pushed back haha). When you said yes, I was so happy (but sick, so I couldn't hug you). Of course, we were still awkward at that time, but it slowly became a regular atmosphere over time. Now look at how the awkward couple changed. Now we're the weird couple that develops so quickly :). I mean, you would let me feed you the candy (and I was shocked because I thought it would be too embarrassing) well, it was but it’s cute :P and we could cuddle around others. We were so close to kissing, but those two instances ruined the mood.
You probably saw where I was going with this, but Mari, you really are my Sunshine. A******ww *prepares to read the rest* I'm able to enjoy entertaining conversations with you. You broadened my "Internet horizons" (lol) and introduced me to new things. Because of you, I try new things (and I hate you for the spicy one especially XD ^_^). Around you, I'm able to smile and be happy. Just seeing your face or receiving a positive message brightens my day. Everyone that interacts with me has said that I have been smiling more lately, and I feel that's an understatement. I love so so many things about you, from your "interesting" side you showed me a few days ago (I'm surprised we can talk about it normally haha. We definitely got a lot closer and can just be ourselves around each other), to your evil scheming ways (the one with Anna was especially fun, too bad we got a boring reaction), to your teasing (wow these are mostly negative I know they are XD), to your interests in computer science and other pushes for intelligent things (horribly worded, but hey it's positive :p. Not gonna mention family and lovey dovey stuff). I wish you could show me more sides to you and be even more interested. If there is only one thing I don't like, it's when you tell sad things that happened or you do something to hurt yourself. It pains me to see you hurt because I care for you. :)
Anyways, I'm glad you put up with this clingy weirdo (remember Anna's favorite moment?). I'm still wondering how we would've been if we talked more first semester or if I asked you out then. Either way, I'm so glad I did ask you and chose not to be believe the alumni's experience would apply to us. I really really like you (now I'm a little embarrassed saying the other way after writing all this), and I hope we can be together for a long time.
Your loving,
clingy Jerk
Joshua P., I love you.
