12 Things I love About My Ex

LA NUESTRA SENORA DELA PAZ BUEN VIAJE GROTTO

1. Since the day you courted me, you've never changed --- always consistent, always persistent. And I love you even more for that.
2. The sound of your voice is so calming --- it has a way of making me feel at ease, like everything's going to be okay.
3. I love how you show me that in true love, time is freely given --- and you make me feel like I'll always come first.
4. There's something so special about the way you call me 'Baby' --- I love how it makes me feel cared for, protected, and endlessly loved. Those sweet kisses you give me, whether your heading out or just getting home, they may seem small, but they mean the world to me.
5. I love that my furbaby, Cassy, loves you too. Every time you bond and carry her in your arms, I can't help but imagine how amazing you'll be as a father to our future children. I also truly appreciate how preisent and attentive you are with Cassy --- it shows how much you genuinely cherish and accept the things and beings I hold close to my heart.
6. I love listening to your future plans --- they don't just excite me because you envision us together, they inspire me as well. Hearing you dream motivates me to dream, too.
7. I love how you care so deeply for your parents and siblings --- it inspires me to love and appreciate my own family even more.
8. I love how you brought me back to God --- how you gently encourage me to attend Mass and grow in faith. Because of you, my relationship with Him feels stronger than ever.
9. I love how disciplined you are with money --- the way you handle your finances shows just how responsible and thoughtful you are. I also love those little moments during our monthsary dates when you'd say, 'Sinama ko na talaga to sa budget.' It may be simple, but it makes me feel seen, valued, and included in your plans.
10. I love the sense of security and reassurance you always give me. You never let me feel uncertain --- you make it clear that I'm the only one you love. Because of that, I don't feel the need to be jealous or anxious. With you, everything feels calm, steady, and right.
11. You make life feel lighter, easier... and now, I can't imagine doing any of it without you.
12. I love that you are my forever home --- the place where my heart feels safest. I'm looking forward to growing old with you, side by side through every season of life.
