A few days ago, I ended up going into hospital, and being diagnosed with another illness (that’s number 2 on the semi serious list :@) I felt really low, and although my bf was coming over for the weekend, I couldn’t find the urge to fight the pain. Then my mum rang him at midnight (he knew I was in the hospital and was waiting till he knew what was happening) to ask him to come over, I was so relieved she’d asked him, but expected him to cop out because of work, but he didn’t.

Next thing I knew he was on his way, with an ETA of 5am, he drove for 4 hours through the night, with no sleep, to come to me because he knew I needed him. He simply is the best.

I was out at a local pub for a friend’s birthday celebration. This was one of the first times I would miss my bf’s nightly online video chat. Feeling bad that he couldn’t be at the party with me, and missing him greatly… I started to text him.

Throughout our texts, I ended up sending him a cheesy ‘Marry me one day?”… and his response was:

“I’d like to marry you for more than just one day, hopefully forever”

I still have the text saved on my phone and always will. It is truly the sweetest thing I have ever been told! Lets just hope it comes true

With both me and my boyfriend in our last year of high school we often get tired and burnt out quickly now a days. I can handle not getting much sleep but my boyfriend is not one who can function well without it. In light of this, Nik began to go to bed at 9 o’clock. Causing our phone calls to end at about that time every night.

One night, when I was at my fathers house, we started our normal nightly call later than usual because I had to study for a huge college prep government test I had the next day that was giving me major anxiety. Through the whole phone call, Nik tried his best to cheer me up by cutely teasing me, telling me how he loved me and stuff like that. Our call was soon interrupted by my father telling me that I needed to cut our call short because I needed to study more. Nik knew how upset and disappointed I was about this and I asked him to text me until he went to sleep at 9. He promised he would.

I laid in my bed studying and got a text every so often from him until it was 9 and I then sent him a text saying goodnight which he replied to saying goodnight as well. I then put the phone down to continue studying thinking he was now asleep. A few minutes after, I got another text from him saying he loved me, which I replied back to. Soon after he texted me again, and then once again with cute little messages. Confused as to why he wasn’t sleeping yet, I asked if he was ok. He texted that he was and I said I was glad and good night again. He then said goodnight back. But he didn’t stop texting and I soon figured that he was up to something when I got a message saying “A random text of love to my Nichole.” I asked him why he was staying up so late, it now being 9:40 and I simply go this back.

“I want to make you happy”

He stayed up texting me for an hour while I studied even though I knew he was exhausted and would have gladly passed out any moment. He didn’t stop texting me, even when I asked him to go to sleep and not stay up with me, until I swore I was done studying and was now going to sleep. It was one of the sweetest things he has ever done for me and it made my miserable night studying a night I’ll never forget.

Before going to sleep, I always talk to my boyfriend. He’s the last person I talk to at night, and first to kiss in the morning. He once called me around 5 am, I picked up but I fell asleep again. I woke up at 6 am and he was still on the phone waiting for me!….not even my mom would do that! That day I knew that I meant so much for him!

I’m a starving college student and recently I ran out of money for food, something I had never thought possible. Without telling me he packed a box full of food and sent it to me with a small note that said: “for just pennies a day I can feed a college student!” Thanks to him (and of course my highly developed radar for free food around campus) I am eating well!

I’ve been dating my boyfriend for about 5 months. We’ve known each other and been good friends since kindergarten. George and I worked together for three years at Dairy Queen, and we graduated together a couple years ago. Right after high school George moved to Fort Benning, Georgia to be a Ranger in the Army. We didn’t talk for an entire year until he came back home to visit his family which only lives a couple houses away from mine. While he was home on leave we hung out every day and finally realized how much we liked each other. He was sent over to Iraq for four months a month after we became official. While he was gone, I had to move to a new town, start school, and find a job all on my own. I didn’t know anybody! I was so nervous to start my first day of college and to make matters worse George was still in Iraq and I hadn’t heard from him in a week! I usually got one 20 minute phone call and a few emails from him each week. After a successful first day of college, I got back to my apartment and started making myself a snack when there was a knock on the door. I opened it to find a man standing there with a large bouquet of flowers and a teddy bear attached. The man who delivered the flowers to me said he had specific instructions to wink at me, and say the flowers were from George! When I read the card attached to the bouquet it read, “To the most beautiful woman I know…from the luckiest guy around!” It was so sweet of him to do that! I don’t know how he remembered my new address and apartment number and how he found the time while in the middle of a war to do that for me!

My boyfriend and I don’t get to talk on the phone much, because he has a pay as you go phone plan and he ALWAYS runs out of minutes. So sometimes he runs out in the middle of the week and I don’t get to talk to him again until the end of the week when he gets paid. I get really down when he runs out of minutes…obviously. He is the one person who can REALLY cheer me up so not being able to talk to him is really difficult. So when he runs out of minutes he sends me sweet little notes in the mail everyday that we don’t get to talk. He is a cartoonist and sends me cute little pictures of the two of us or he’ll send sweet little pieces of paper with reasons he loves me. The most recent letter was short and all it said was “everytime I missed you today I put a scrap of paper in this envelope” and the envelope was filled with scraps of paper that had ranges of sweet things written on them (”I miss you” “I miss your smell” ” I miss your smile”) He makes sure that I know I’m loved … even from a distance

It was late at night and we both logged on MSN after a long day. I got back home late from University and had a massive homework load to finish. She got back from school (I’m first year University student, she is grade 12 High School student) and she had just as much, if not more, homework than I did. It was already 10:00 pm. I called her and told her about my day, and she did likewise. We talked about random things that went on, told jokes. We are very random people and can either be comfortably silent for an hour, or have random discussions from out of nowhere.

We talked until about 11:11 pm, which is the time where we both make wishes together about something we truly want. And it’s not like “i want a big screen TV” wish. It has to be your deepest desire at that moment/day and you HAVE to say it, even if you think it is embarrassing. That night we both had the same wish. I wished that every morning I can wake up next to her for the rest of my life. She wished that every night she could lay down next to, or on me, and fall asleep with our breathing rates matched. It made us both smile. Her smile always reminded me of the sunrise/sunset.

So we talked until 11:30 until her mother said it was time to get off the phone. We were both because we hate to hang up. But being the guy, I always hang up first so she doesn’t have to. Makes it easier on her. I called her my Angel, or my beautiful girl as I always do before I hang up. Now the problem was, we had only finished maybe a page of our homework, even with us helping each other.

So what we did is stay up late helping each other finish each other’s homework. I finished my homework by one in the morning, but she still had a massive load left to do. She was already tired and starting to fall asleep, but watching me on webcam, and talking to her kept her awake. I was equally (if not more) tired. But regardless, I used every piece of strength I had to stay up and be energetic for her.

So I stayed up ALL NIGHT long helping her with her work, and keeping her awake. Even though I had University the next day. I’m guessing she finished most (if not all) around 4:30 (she had a lot). But after she finished we stayed up with each other and talked about old memories we had of where we first met. How we felt. Where we saw each other in five years. We talked until 7:30 am about how much we loved each other, and what we wanted our futures to be like. So yeah, basically for three hours we talked about each other and what we wanted to do together for our life. I told her my deep dark secrets, one which included that I had picked up the second “Twilight” series book because, even though I didn’t like the story, I wanted to be a part of her life, so I decided to try it. And she was so happy that I did that because it was just reinforcing how much I want to be in her life. We went to bed around 7:30 because her parents woke up, and my renters woke up. And we also decided that our health was more important than a few more hours on MSN. So we logged off MSN though we didn’t want to. And we each got 2-3 hours sleep. And in that time, all I did was dream of her and me just being together.
