Dear Dylan, I wanted to get you a rose (I feel like a bouquet would freak you out) along with this note: Thank you -for being patient with me -for being considerate and understanding of my firsts -for being so respectful of my boundaries -for asking me out -for being my first and favorite dance partner -for cooking me dinner -for picking me up and dropping me off home -for making me smile and laugh -for initiating good morning good night texts -for being vulnerable and honest with me -for singing your favorite songs to me -for being my first kiss -for remembering I like wine -for the back hugs -for the forehead kisses -for the night out in the jeep -for sharing your past with me -for being you As much as I wanted to build a castle with you, I couldn't build alone. I am sad we didn't get as much time together as I'd hoped. I feel hurt that you were so ready and quick to throw in the towel. I will leave our happy memories here and find my way back to the life before you. Thank you for everything, Dylan.
