yup, just like the title says.

i've been thinking about him a lot lately, and i feel like i'm going CRAZY! so i needed an outlet to talk about all of the reasons he is wonderful.

first and foremost, he is the most fun person i've ever met. we do the craziest things together! we've gone off-roading, skinny dipping, underage gambling, and snuck into pools to give you an idea.

matt makes me laugh more than anyone! i love his silly attitude and how cute he is when he laughs and smiles.

he is incredibly intelligent and driven. That is important to me, because I feel really driven towards my goals, and i love his independence and business-like knowhow.

he makes me into a better person. when i'm with him, or just talking to him on facetime, i feel like I've got a better head on my shoulders.

matt hands down is the hottest guy i've ever dated. although people like to tell you that looks aren't everything, they definitely help. i've been attracted to him since I was 16, and glad he didn't get older and uglier. (;

his eyes are the most intense and gorgeous things i've ever seen. i love to just get lost in them. (:

i've never felt more special than when i'm with him. even when i'm not with him physically. he just makes me feel like a princess. i want to make him feel like he's my prince.

a silly thing that i like is that he's older. only by 8 months, but still! right now he is 24, and i'm only 23. but i've dated down before and it really is a fact that men mature slower! its nice to be dating a real man with a good head on his shoulders. and i still think he is more mature than i am. lol.

he tells me i'm beautiful everyday. even when i don't feel pretty, its nice to know that he still thinks i'm beautiful.

he makes me feel sexy. its one thing to feel pretty, but its another to feel sexy. (:

matthew is the smartest man i know. we have deep conversations and i am surprised that he is able to hold such a conversation with me (i've lately been thinking of myself as intellectually shallow since i stopped going to school). he makes me feel smarter too just by talking, which is great because the alternative would be making me feel small or condescended.

he knows how to fix anything! along with being smart, he is a problem solver. whether its an issue with a computer or my life, or a jewelry case, he knows how to fix it! its so amazing! i love my little handy man!

matt supports me in anything that i do! having such a strong support system is crucial. even when I can't make up my mind on a subject and he has no idea how to support me, he still finds a way.

our communication is ON POINT! its as if he is inside of my head. we are always talking and understanding each other. yes, we get into arguments, we are human. but we usually can talk it out in ten minutes. we are both very good at expressing our feelings which is important.

i can actually see how much he cares about me. when he looks at me his eyes are so intense. i can practically feel it.

he can remember my own nephew's middle name. something that I can never do. the glorious part about this, is I told him my nephew's name over a year ago, and we weren't even together. he had hope that we would be together for over a year!

i love the secure feeling i have. we both know that we are going to spend the rest of our lives together. even though we are not engaged, or even close to it, the fact is, we've been so sure about each other, we can no longer imagine our lives without the other anymore. he is my soulmate. and i am his. <3

i think what i love the most is our history. i'm really glad we never got the chance to date all those times in the past, because if we had dated then when we were young and stupid, things would not be like how they are today. <3


gah i miss him so much! this just barely scratches the surface of the intensity I feel for this man!
i think its time for some of my favorite pictures. (: There's 5, i tried to not to, but it seems i still went overboard in the amount of pictures i picked. lol.

(if anyone knows how to make these pictures viewable, please let me know! thanks!)



this is when he first came to visit and we started our relationship. we carved our names in a rock! <3
