I Prefer You Now

In the quiet moments of the evening, when the world seems to slow down and the air is filled with a gentle hush, I find myself reflecting on the simple yet profound shift in my feelings. It's not a sudden change, but rather a gradual transformation that has taken root over time. I find myself saying, "I prefer you now."

This preference is not just a fleeting moment of sentimentality or a momentary lapse in judgment. It's a deep-seated appreciation that has grown stronger with each passing day. The way you listen, the way you understand, and the way you support me have all become integral parts of my life.

Before, there were moments when I felt overshadowed or undervalued. But now, in your presence, I feel seen and heard. Your kindness and empathy have become my sanctuary during times of stress and uncertainty. You have shown me that true connection is not just about sharing moments of joy but also about being there during the quieter, more challenging times.

What drew me to you initially was your ability to make me feel safe and understood. Over time, it has evolved into something deeper—a mutual respect and understanding that has strengthened our bond. The small gestures that once seemed insignificant now hold great weight in my heart.

I remember when we first met; there was an instant connection, but it was more about shared interests and common goals. Now, it's about more than just what we do together; it's about who we are as individuals and how we support each other's growth.

This preference for you is not just about finding someone better; it's about recognizing the value in what we share and how it enriches both of our lives. It's about choosing to be with someone who uplifts me rather than brings me down. In your company, I find joy not just in external achievements but in the simple moments of life.

As I continue to grow and evolve, I am grateful for having someone by my side who does the same. You have become a part of my journey that I wouldn't want to miss. The future may hold uncertainties, but with you by my side, I am ready to face them head-on.

So here’s to us—here’s to the journey we are on together—and here’s to preferring you now more than ever before.
