Day 6: The Person You Like and Why You Like Him.

The man I'm in love with would be the boyfriend. He's such a genuinely great man. 

The first time I realized I liked him was when he reacted so well when I told him I was raped. He didn't judge me, just let me say it. He also didn't pry, but acknowledged that it was a horrible thing that happened to me. I knew nothing more than friendship would ever happen there and moved on as quickly as I had recognized that I cared for him.  

Another time I realized I liked him was when he was there for me during all my anxiety when the ex was pulling away. He let me worry to him, he tried to offer advice, and he just listened. That was another time I recognized what a genuinely kind person he was and what a good friend he'd been to me. 

Then when the ex finally called it off after stringing me along for two months he was there trying to cheer me up. Telling me I was cute, there'd be other guys, and that it would be okay. He was my biggest gym supporter. He'd chat me up during my workouts and ask for gym selfie. He'd be flirty and silly in a playful way that wasn't annoying or anything I thought was serious. He was non-threatening and funny. 

November's are always a bad month for me. I'm pretty sure I've talked about it multiple times. This year I was healing from a breakup on top of all the other stupid things about November. He was there for me through all of it. He listened to my frustration at all my exes coming out of the wood work hitting on me again. He was there through my crying fits at the gym. He was there being kind to me and supporting me when I felt like I was falling apart. 

He manages to make me beyond happy. He's my favorite person to talk to. He makes me want to be my best and improve myself however I can. He makes me smile and laugh. He's managed to be everything I've ever hoped for in a significant other. He's my dream man in every way including ways I didn't know I craved. He makes me feel safer and stronger. I can't even imagine a better man for me.
