Day 21 - What's one characteristic about them that has grown from something you barely noticed to something you love entirely?

We really should get on this and actually answer these everyday… but I digress! haha. Ok, here we go!!! :D

If there is absolutely anything about ryan and has become more and more apparent, it has to be is ever present love and concern. When Ryan and I first started getting to know each other, he and I were practically inseparable (oh the irony), and now through every day that we have gotten to talk to each other, I can really feel his love around me. Let me explain what I mean: Every day, I go to school or work or a performance and feel completely safe and secure. This feeling is because I know with absolute certainty that Ryan loves me and will protect me no matter what. He can make me happy, goofy, laugh ridiculous amounts, and still make me feel completely loved and secure even from 2783 miles away. I absolutely adore him for that, because nobody has ever made me feel like this before, not even close. 

I know this post is really short, but I cant wait to get back to Skyping with Ryan that I cant focus anymore. I love you all and I love you to death Ryan, mr-man-of-my-dreams! <3

When did proper use of grammar become an attractive trait rather than an assumed skill?

Look what you started. I started life out as a copycat, and I guess that’s become an intuitive trait of mine… I’ve never noticed, but I’m very influenced by other’s decisions, and you’re an especially huge factor in many of the things I get to decide in my life.

I’m listening to music I might not have listened to twice had you not been in my life the way you have. You swing me this way and that… I just hope I’m no puppet my whole life.

  • "What is the one personality trait you're least proud of?"
  • Andy: "Because it gets me in the most trouble it's probably being a hopeless romantic. Everything winds me up hurting me on an emotional level - I have very thin skin when it comes to girls and stuff like that."

“The single most valuable human trait, the one quality every schoolchild and adult should be taught to nurture, is, quite simply, kindness.”

Least desirable trait

Besides being a complete asshole (aka, murderer, rapist etc)

Being superficial. 

Three abilities/traits that a man I envision possesses:

  1. Ability to balance gentleness and fierceness.
  2. Ability to see through and beyond a woman’s makeup.
  3. Ability to have a thick skin.
