Tell you this. All I'm really looking for is a relationship where my girlfriend says to me, "I love you," and I don't say, "Why?"

wow. he probably won't even notice that i'm quoting him but i don't care. he knows he's a good writer... but i don't know if he knows how good that passage was.

... so much expressed from two little sentences.

and if he can express himself even half as openly and honestly in his relationships... then i have no idea why he can't understand why someone couldn't NOT love that.

damn.

... maybe it isn't a marine thing... maybe it's just a maryland thing. i tell ya... if he were here i'd be first in line to see if he's the best.
