Telling my boyfriend I love him.

So I don’t normally post on here but I just had to. I’m not sure if this is a good way to tell him I love him. We met three years ago when he’d come around my house to see my brother. Which soon stopped and earlier this year he pops back up in my life. He’s become such a blessing to me and I want him to know how much I appreciate and do love him. He loves playing guitar so I thought it’d be cute to get him a pick to tell him.

It’s not pricey but I thought it was super cute. I also wrote him this letter.

Dear Steve,

I’m not sure why but it’s so hard for me to get up the courage to tell you this in person. I get choked up and second guess whether I should or shouldn’t. But I need you to know. Because you mean so much to me. You’ve shown me so much, of the world, of who you are. You’ve become one of the best things that has ever happened to me. You make me laugh, cry, smile, and yes sometimes mad or upset. I know you’ve been hurt. I know people have left you and made you feel some of the worst feelings there are. I know I can be a handful, or annoying. But I hope I’m worth it. I hope you never see my faults and think I’m not good enough. I hope you always see me the way you did when you first started talking to me. I hope I never hurt you so bad you want to leave me. I hope that one day I can say I was right about our future.

But the one thing I hope most is that you see how much I love you. I hope you see I’ll always love you as much as I do right now, I hope you’ll look back and never regret meeting me and being with me.

I love you so much steve

And before anyone says if I can’t say it in person I shouldn’t say it at all. I’ve thought about this and I think I’m scared he’ll say it back without meaning it. I don’t want him to feel obligated to say it back. I just want him to know I do love him.
