Today, I threw a huge party at my house. My autistic little brother was upstairs alone in his room. My best friend decided he shouldn’t have to be alone so she went up to his room to say hi.
She ended up missing the whole party just to hang out with him. It was the first time i heard him laugh in months. LGMH
About 6 years ago, my best friends brother died in a drunk driving accident. Last night I was sleeping over at my best friends house and we were about to go to sleep. My friend got up and I overheard her open up her brother’s bedroom door and say, “Goodnight Steve. I love you.”

I work at a women’s clothing store. A woman came into the store with her husband. He explained each clothing item in detail to her, then brought her into the dressing room and dressed her himself, telling her how beautiful she looked in each outfit.
She was blind.

Tonight an 18 year old boy working with me seemed very upset. When I asked him why, he said, “My girlfriend doesn’t have service where she is staying tonight. I haven’t told her I loved her today. I’ve told her every day for the last three years.”
Boyfriends that love their girlfriends GMH.
My grandma has had Alzheimer’s for over 8 years now. She can no longer walk, go to the washroom by herself, feed herself or remember any of her family members.

My boyfriend came over yesterday and we had a good time. My mother passed away over a year ago and I have a picture of her on my desk. When he was leaving, he went to go get his things off of my desk. He looked at the picture of my mom and said “Mrs. H, you have a pretty amazing daughter.”

Me and my 50-year-old Dad were writing to each other on Facebook. I live in Sweden, he works in Denmark during the weeks.
When it was time to go, I wrote ‘Good night’ and a heart. Eagerly, he asked, ‘How do you make the hearts?’
I told him and then he wouldn’t stop sending them to me.

About a month ago I had moved to Italy for school. I had become rather lonely and it was very difficult for me to make friends.
I called my boyfriend crying and telling him how much I miss him.
The next day I saw him outside my apartment.
He has a TERRIBLE fear of flying.
His love GMH.
A few nights ago I was on the phone with my boyfriend.

I was asleep for 2 1/2 hours. His LGMH
It was Valentine’s Day of my sophomore year in high school.
I was sad because it seemed like my boyfriend wasn’t around, but throughout the day I was given a single rose by different people until it reached exactly 12. I proudly walked around campus with a dozen roses in hand.
Turns out he had this planned for weeks.
Sean, your LGMH.
I was looking through my boyfriends cell phone contacts the other day, and when I couldn’t find my name I got really upset. When I asked about it, he showed me my number, under the contact “The most beautiful girl on earth”. He wrote that when we first met and keeps it to remind himself how special I am.

My little brother has social development issues. On the car ride home after his last day of 3rd grade, he tells me that he completed every section in his yearbook except the Best Friend’s section. Why? Because his BF didn’t go to his school, and he only had one.
When I asked who it was, he said it was me.
I cried for 3 hours when I got home. His LGMH

3 years ago, I was raped. I never told anyone. I finally told my boyfriend of 2 years, though I was afraid he’d see me differently.
He didn’t say anything at first. Then he walked to the dresser and pulled out a ring.
He said “I was going to wait, but you’ve never been more amazing to me.” His LGMH
I have a list of ambitions.146. My boyfriend asked me what my number 1 was.
I said it was to make someone’s dreams come true.
He then said, “but you already have.”
After seeing my confused expression, he turned to me and said,
“Everything you are is all I’ve ever dreamed of… and so much more.”
My long distance boyfriend said that he was going to finally send my birthday present that he’s been waiting to send for 6 months, and that I needed to go to sleep to get the next morning.

In fourth grade, a boy passed a girl a note asking her to go to prom with him when they were old enough. After giggling and blushing like crazy, she said yes. He said he’d hold her to that.

My boyfriend lives far away from me. Every morning, I wake up to a text that says “Good morning beautiful, I love you.”

Last night, I finally told my boyfriend about my sever personality disorder, that causes me to live four or five separate “lives” inside my head, each with their own lovers (also in my head). I expected him to break up with me, because my other personalities didn’t love him. He kissed me and asked what I did today in my other lives.
When I was on the bus on my way home from work and I had received a text from my love of 5 years. He said he just wanted to be friends. Fighting back tears, a young man came up to me and said “Anyone who dares to make those beautiful blue eyes cry isn’t worth it.”

I’m 17 and recently lost my mom in a car accident. As I was rambling on and crying about how she wouldn’t be there for my wedding or the birth of my children, my fiance lifted up my head and simply said,
