Laughed at the memes I send her.
Forwards some of them to her coworkers.

  1. When she takes pictures of me when I’m not looking and genuinely cherishes them no matter how weird I look

  2. She said she wouldn’t mind living in my country, which is something very heartfelt to me considering we both have close relationships with our parents and live across the globe right now. It’s a big commitment and she’s willing to make it for me.

I’m also willing to do the same for her :]

Mine is an odd one, she let the breakup be amicable. It’s never easy to breakup, but our relationship turned into a LDR with a 5 hour time difference. Long distance relationships are never easy but we were giving it an honest shot. Eventually we both knew it was time, but neither of us wanted it to end. When the idea was floated that this could be coming to an end she insisted that we don’t blame ourselves but rather the circumstances. Our last date was both of us updating each other’s dating profiles.

We’re still friends, we still talk, I was at her wedding a few years ago, and the man she’s with is an amazing man, I wish them the best. It was an issue of circumstance, not compatibility, and of all the relationships I’ve been in that is the only one that I do not blame either myself, or my partner for the breakup.

They told me they’ve always kept a folder to save all the things I’ve sent them over the past 2 years, including all of my art, which means a ton to me

This question made me come to a weird realization that I dont appreciate when people do or say nice things to me. I tried to think of something and I know that she has done plenty of nice things and said nice things but nothing stands out.

Then I thought about how I’d react if she did something nice for me and I realized I get annoyed and dislike it. I can handle small gifts but I don’t like people doing things for me or helping me and I ignore compliments because I already feel comfortable with myself so I don’t feel like I dont need them.

Im not even sure how to appreciate a gesture beyond just saying thankyou as a formality and trying to figure out how to pay them back.
