I don’t think I’ve ever taken the opportunity to publicly
brag about him on here so I think it’s about time for me to write a blog post
about how awesome he is.
·
The first thing that struck me about Brian is
that he pursued me. He didn’t play any
weird games; I never had to guess if he was feeling one way or another. He was always open and direct with me about
how he felt and what his intentions were.
·
I love that I am completely comfortable being
myself around Brian. We have so much fun being silly together and laughing at
things that wouldn’t be funny to anyone else but us. I love that over the course of our
relationship we have formed our own brand of weird… that just keeps getting
weirder as time goes on.
·
Brian is committed to his faith, and committed
to making that a part of our marriage and family. He seeks out counsel from other godly men and
is always willing to find new ways for us to grow together spiritually.
·
I love that Brian is honest- almost to a
fault. He plans surprises for me, then gets really excited about them and tells
me about it before he executes the surprise.
It’s really endearing. In all
seriousness though I know I never have to worry about him keeping anything from
me or telling me any half-truths.

Brian and I are both fairly independent,
which is my nice way saying that we’re stubborn. This has led to a few rather frustrating
arguments. However, Brian does this
thing where mid-argument, he reminds me of his love and commitment to me. It’s really sweet and kind of frustrating. I’ll be fuming mad or crying or some
other sort of explosive emotion, and he will remind me that from the moment he
said he loved me for the first time that he had resolved that he was committed
to me for life. And no matter what the
issue is that we’re hung up on, there is nothing that will change his
love. He assures me that we’re going to
figure it out and be better for it because we’re in this thing for the rest of
our lives. It’s really reassuring and
disarming and makes it hard to remain too angry at him.

He does lots of little things to show he
cares. He sneaks into my apartment when
I’m not there and leaves me cute little notes; he gives me flowers and always finds
a creative way to do it- like sending them to my office or leaving them on my
porch. He sends me silly texts and makes me laugh when I’m in boring meetings
at work, and cooks me dinner when I’ve had a stressful day.
·
I’ll end this entry on a shallow note. My fiancé is a hottie. For real.
He looks awesome shirtless.
I could go on… there really are endless reasons why I
love this man. I’m so grateful that God
brought us together and I have the rest of my life to find more reasons to love
him.
