August 2011
Today I was in my room when I heard strange noises coming from the first floor. I went down to see what was going on when I find my sister and her boyfriend wrestling and laughing hysterically over a box of cookies.
Love like that gives me hope.
I’m about to enter my junior year of high school. When you were my age, you were pregnant.
But you never considered abortion; you loved your child from the moment you knew she existed.
Mom, I don’t know if I could ever make the sacrifices you’ve made for me.
Your undying love GMH.
I didn’t want an online relationship. You said you’d wait, and we talked every day.
You told me you loved me anyway, and I fell for you. After a few months, I know you’re starting to get a little upset I’m not saying it back…
I’m waiting until I can hug you when I say it. Andrew, your LGMH.
Today my girlfriend asked me why I love her. I replied “Because you’re funny, smart, beautiful, amazing, talented-“
She stopped me mid-sentence and said, “I love you because you eat dino nuggets and aren’t afraid to tell people.”
I’m 26 and she’s 25. Her LGMH. :)
I’ve put this boy through so much. He didn’t deserve what I did to him.
But even from almost 600 miles away, he has always been there for me, even after I admitted everything. He’s the only one who knows everything about me.
I wish at 11:11 every night that I will never lose him. Caleb, your ability to forgive and your LGMH.
“I love you THIS much!” I said to my boyfriend as I jumped up in the air stretching out my arms and legs.
“I don’t know if I can beat that!” he joked. Then he smiled and said, “actually, maybe I can!”
And he got down on one knee and pulled out a beautiful diamond ring.
Justin, the man of my dreams, your LGMH.
My best friend’s boyfriend had a bad drug addiction. He ended up in rehab a couple months after they started dating.
Everyday, his sister would come into her homeroom at the beginning of the school day and hand her a note from him reminding her how much he loves her & that everything was going to work out.
Their LGMH .
My boyfriend is the most understanding, loving person I have ever met.
His biological father was an alcoholic and was shot, his mother abused drugs and cheated, and he has seen more death in Afghanistan and Iraq than anyone ever should see.
The fact that he is able to love so strongly despite seeing the absolute worst of human nature, GMH.
We grew up together. We’ve been through everything together.
You know all the problems and self esteem issues I have in my life.
But you never gave up on me.
Last night, you held my hand in front of your whole family and said, “I love this girl and one day I hope to marry her!
“
Darling, your LGMH.

I was on the bus, and a 5yr.
Old girl was cutting out hearts and I asked why.
She said, “I’m cutting out hearts to give to all the boys so they can break these hearts instead of mine.
” then she handed me a heart and said, “here, I don’t want you heart broken.
” her LGMH.
I was 7 and he was 8. Our families were hanging out together.
He said, “You know, when you give someone a Hershey kiss, it’s the same thing as giving them a real kiss?”
Later, I found Hershey kisses that he had left for me. Young LGMH.
BF can mean best friend OR boyfriend. I’ve found a match that’s perfectly both.
We laugh, we playfully fight and have tickle wars, we cuddle and hold hands, we stick with our friends… he’s the most amazing guy in the world.
Everybody can have a match out there like him, it just takes time.
Everybody’s LGMH.
My boyfriend and I have known each other since 5th grade. We even liked each other in 5th grade. We are now dating 5 years later and we were talking last night and I told him I’d love him forever.
He said, “That’s the way I’ve always felt about you.”
I asked “Since when?”
He said, “Since I saw your amazing green eyes.”
Levi, I love you....
I’m a really nice guy, which has resulted in me having bad experiences with girlfriends in the past.
I never thought I’d find someone who would actually care, love, or want me.
But now, it’s all payed off, my current girlfriend is simply beyond perfect, and some day, I’ll marry her.
We might only be 16 & 17, but I have faith.
F., your LGMH!
I have 18 X’s carved on my back. I was kidnapped and tortured. I hate those scars.
You kiss each one and tell me how strong they make me- how I am a beautiful survivor.
I hate them a little less each time you tell me.
I will keep healing with your LGMH.
He doesn’t know this.
But every night I turn off my phone before his last goodnight text.
Not so I can get the last word in, but so that when I turn my phone on the next morning the first thing I’ll see is a smile from him.
His patience, his smile, and his LGMH.
My grandma told me that she still gets butterflies when my grandpa comes home from work.
My grandma is 60 and my grandpa is 68.
Their ageless LGMH.
I have never been in love. Sometimes I doubt I will find it, and it depresses me.
I then stumbled upon this site and see that love still exists.
I shall find it one day, and these stories have inspired me. Ya’ll’s LGMH.
My mother broke us up a year ago. She’s interrogated and threatened him. He has a different color skin than us, so that apparently makes him “dirty.”
Despite the possible consequences, he’s been by my side through everything. In just a few days is our anniversary.
What she doesn’t know won’t hurt her. M, you are my everything.
49 years ago, two young people ran away and eloped. Their 50th anniversary is in February.
They are planning a real wedding on that date.
My grandparents have been through happy and tough times but stayed together.
Their long-lasting LGMH.
A woman was told that her 2 year old son had autism. They told her he was better off in an institution. She hung up the phone without a word.
16 years later she watched me do the “impossible:” graduate from high school.
Mom, your LGMH to do something great in this world.

Yesterday was my birthday.
My entire family was away so I was staying with a friend. Feeling down that my family wasn’t there, my friend insisted we go for a walk.
When we got back, the house was decorated with balloons and they even got a cake plus gifts.
Gabrielle and family, you GMH
We met as babies; he’s my best friend, and I thought it’d always be that way.
But when he was nine, he told my brother I was pretty. When he was twelve, he told himself he’d marry me. When he was sixteen, he finally asked me out.
Two weeks later he said he loved me. I’d wait another sixteen years if it meant I could be with him forever. Our LGMH.
