I want to tell you that you are incredibly interesting to watch and be around with. I admire you too. I like you for who you are. I like to see how you eat, I like to see your facial expressions, I like to see how you play with your hands, I like to see you hugging my book, I like to see you trying to torn your pants' broken parts even more, I like to see your eyes watching me, I like to see the little dots you put on your lower eyelids, I like to see at your mouth when you talk about something serious, I like it when suddenly you start feeling attentive to your environment and ask you what's the reason, I like it when you laugh so hard that you can't stop, I like the spontaneous sounds you make, I like to see how you wait at a queue or walk alone searching for something, I like to see you talking to people, I like to see the clothes you wear, I like to see how little your tenis are, I like to see the small braids you make in your hair, I like the fact that you have high self-esteem and that you are not afraid to show it, I like your honesty and how I can trust whatever you say is what you intend to say, I like your knowledge and expertise on topics like kids and psychology, I like it when you explain things to me and I can see how you are passionate about it, I like it when you joke about pretending to throw things at me or imagine situations where you play rough but you don't actually do it, I like all the funny ways you greet me in Telegram, I like how you don't doubt to tell me how you really feel or what you really want in the moment, I like it both when we talk and when we just keep silent, I like how by your side I don't feel obligated to know everything and you can take the lead when I can't... This list of course is not an exhaustive one; there's plenty more I like about you and the list is constantly growing the more I get to know you.

I want you to known that this kind of friendship I haven't had before in my life but I had always felt it was possible and that when I finally get it it'd be amazing. I'm glad it really is as great as I thought it'd be, and maybe even better.

And it really doesn't matter that we don't agree on the limits of government or on what rights are; those differences cannot and will never be able to outweigh all the things that I like about you. 🖤

Thank you for trusting me this far and for being such a great friend.
