So sure

David,
I've never told you this before but what drew me most to you when I first met you was your air of happiness with life. You had this aura of contentment about you that was irresistible. I sensed that your life was one you loved with or without me in it. Nothing made me want you more than that. To meet someone else who got that so completely frankly took my breath away. I had waited so long for someone on the same path as me and then you just walked into my life. I learned as you did that I just needed to wake up each day and live that day with joy and abandon (with or without a lover.) Alone, I was still complete. In fact meeting you became an added bonus to an already full life. I am so grateful for the patience you had and I had as we walked our separate paths. I knew that I needed to be the man that I wanted to date before I could date him. Somehow, in your own way you came to the same conclusions. It brought our paths together eventually. Maybe that is what makes this experience so exquisite for me. It's the first time I've felt that a lover's life would continue without me, and it makes me want to share your life all the more while i can. Blessed be the day that you walked into my life.

Your Beloved.
