Dear T,

You were wonderful tonight. You were on top of your game with how you handled me. But (yea there's a but), I don't think you realize how very much I you. I can't actually say it and you would't want to hear me say it, so I'll spare you the awkwardness of it all. But I do. Can't you feel the love in the room? I wished, hoped and actually thought you might express some kind of feeling for me tonight. Am I crazy or what? The hopeless romantic in me was disappointed, as usual. In my dreams you tell me how much you care for me, it's easy in my dreams. That's why real life $*@!%. Please don't wake me from my dream.
