Dear Future Boyfriend: A Series



I finally found the courage to release an offline series that I started in November of 2011. Wow. I can't believe it's been almost 10 years.

A few warnings though: one, I told myself I'll write everyday but never really had the chance to be consistent. And two, some of these were written by an immature college student who just wanted an escape from the world. Hence, this series.

Just a background, I've never had a real boyfriend. If I do say so myself. But I've always loved the thought of having a significant other. I'm a hopeless romantic millennial who gets kilig at the most random act of love she reads, sees, or even hear. I'm sappy like that. 

Some of them are long, a few are short because I just wanted to rant. But all these are musings I jot down whenever I feel optimistic.

Dear Future Boyfriend,

Hi. I haven't met you, just like any other girl who would write to their future boyfriend. HAH! I've always been curious how you will look like. How your voice would sound like. How you would treat me. Is it just like how protective you are with your little sister? Or your Mom, if you have no sister? Or maybe just as bonded as your brother? I'm really not expecting for anything soon, because I don't want to break my heart with someone I haven't even met yet.

But I'm hoping for something. For someone to finally, as they say, sweep me off my feet. I ain't perfect and I know you will not be, because nobody will ever be. But there's one thing I'm going to be sure with—I will love you. And you will have my heart until the end, until it stops beating.

I'll write you every day until we meet. And as soon as I say yes to you, you'll get a hold of this letter and the future ones I will make.


Love,

Your Future Girlfriend
