My inner elf says it's a good idea to keep the proof of love on hand you can look at it easily.

And, I think, if he's a caring guy, then he will help with the reality checking. Like, if you can honestly take a deep breath and be like: "I am having this high anxeity about this situation right now, and instead of blowing it out of proportion, I want to run it by you and get your take on it." Just a thought.

(My inner elf is also named Merryweather I decided, LOL. Princess Merryweather.)
