i’ve been thinking about how i want to tell you this, and
honestly, i don’t think there’s a perfect way to put
everything i feel into words. but i guess that’s why
i’m writing this in the first place.
i’m really glad that i got to know you. out of all the
people i could’ve met, somehow, i got to meet you, and
that’s something i’m genuinely grateful for. the more
i get to know you, the more i find myself wanting to
know the little things about you, the things that make
you happy, the things that keep you up at night, your
thoughts, your dreams, and even the parts of yourself
that you don’t easily show to other people.
i know we’re still in the process of getting to know
each other, and i know there’s still so much about you
that i have yet to discover. i’m not going to pretend
that i already know everything about you, because i
don’t. but that’s exactly what makes me want to stay
and learn more. i want to get to know you beyond the
conversations we have, beyond the moments when
everything feels easy, and even beyond the days when
things aren’t going as planned.
i don’t want to rush what we have or make promises that
are easy to say but difficult to prove. i want my
intentions to be something you can actually see
through my actions. i want to be someone who listens
when you need someone to talk to, someone who
celebrates your little wins with you, and someone who
reminds you that you don’t always have to figure
everything out on your own.
and so, there’s something i’ve been wanting to ask you.
krissy, would you let me court you?
i want to pursue you properly, with genuine intentions
and an open heart. i want the chance to show you that
what i feel isn’t just something i say because
everything is exciting right now. i want to take the
time to understand you, respect your pace, and see
where this could take us. i want to make an effort,
not because i expect anything in return, but because
i believe you’re someone worth making that effort for.
i know that asking this doesn’t mean i have everything
figured out. i just know that i like you, and i want
to give this a real chance. whatever your answer may
be, i hope you know that i’m asking because i want to
be honest with you about what i feel and what i want.
so, no pressure, no need to have the perfect answer.
i just wanted you to know that if you’ll let me, i’d
really love the chance to pursue you.
and if this is the beginning of something beautiful,
then i hope we get to take our time with it, one
moment, one conversation, and one memory at a time.
with sincerity,
someone who wants to know you a little more,
every day.
