I’m feeling emotional so I’m going to start a thread of stories that made me fall extra hard in love with Luke.
when we first started talking we were so excited to hang out with one another we’d get up at 5 am & I would drive to his apartment to spend mornings with him. But almost always he would wake up earlier to get me a coffee to surprise me with. This went on for about 3-4 months.
We were bowling & people that were once close to me were talking poorly about me & I was upset about it. Luke (was intoxicated) ran back and forth and about 4 different times to grab me by the face to tell me that I was the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen in his life
I don’t have the worst vision but it’s not the best, and 9/10 I forget to bring my glasses when I need them. But Luke remembers for me without fail every single time we leave the house.
I was staying over and his room didn’t have heat in the middle of winter. So he stacked about 15 blankets on top of me, set alarms & periodically throughout the night would press on random parts of my body. Come to find out he was checking that I stayed warm all night long.
When Luke and I met I had a pretty bad eating disorder and was starving myself. Our first date we went to bear tooth. He ordered not 1 but 3 plates of food where I ordered soup. He was confused asked if I was hungry and when I said no he ordered two more plates “just in case”
I get migraines & before we lived together he went out and bought me a migraine kit. Excedrin, Gatorade & my favorite candy + essential oils. So whenever I got one he could help even when he wasn’t there.
back to the eating disorder: he would make me eat ALL THE TIME. It made me feel a lot better because he eats so much, it wouldn’t make me feel as bad about eating whatever it was when every one I ate he ate 4. Truthfully he is the reason why I overcame the ED.
Alongside the eating disorder was pretty bad body dysmorphia. Didn’t matter to him, every single chance there ever was to compliment my body he took full opportunity to tell me about how hot he thought I was. Luke is my biggest hype man of all time.
I picked him up from a party when we first started dating (he was drunk) and he excitedly SCREAMED once he saw me and I quote “this is my beautiful girlfriend!!!” that’s how I met about half his friends hahahahaha.
Almost every night we watch spongebob together before bed. Idk how many times we’ve watched each season but it’s a lot.
He loves the things I love so it gives us an excuse to hang out more. So he’s always around when I bake, make dinner, do artwork, go on walks. And same does for me, I sit along side him when basketballs on, playing video games, running errands. It’s the little things.
I had a client once threaten to do a lot of nasty things and hit me out of left wing. I was SUCH a mess, and he went out and bought me (had to go to several shops to find them cause it was winter time) peonies to help brighten my day. Which it did, a lot.
I’ve had a few hospital visits in the past two years two being pretty scary and every time Luke sits beside me and holds my hand, scratches my back, and tells me that everything’s ok & that no matter what “you’ll still be pretty”
his emotions are so high whenever we watch shows together - if anything suspenseful happens he’s usually screaming, jumping, running. It’s funny because it’s incredibly genuine. Its one of my favorite things about him.
I love rock climbing and without me asking or even mentioning it - he went out got belay certified, bought all his own gear, and a membership to the rock gym so he could hang out with me more often.
Having a house that isn’t clean always big time stressed me out and being busy with life doesn’t help. I can’t even count the amount of times he would clean something and send me a picture while at work so it was just one less thing to stress about.
I made him a friendship bracelet when we started talking and he wore that thing with PRIDE. It was at least 8-10 months until it broke.
Luke has taught me so much about patience, and kindness. He literally has the most gentle soul I’ve ever met.
I’ll stop, but when people give me a look for being married at 21 .... like would you not put a ring on this too.
Marrying Luke was the easiest decision I’ve ever made in my life.
