Are we just making up stuff now? Yesterday was National Boyfriend’s Day. Did you know it? Do you care? LOL.
I sent my own boyfriend (Mr. C) a notice that it was National Boyfriend’s Day. He thought it was hilarious and asked “Is that right and what do boyfriends get in their honor?” Stop being nosey. I’m not telling you what I told him.
But I did some research and found out the following:
“National Boyfriend Day is here. Falling on third of October every year, the day is an unofficial holiday meant to celebrate (as the name suggests) the man you love.
Even though ‘boyfriend’ refers to a person with whom you are in intimate relationship, people also celebrate the day to appreciate the men they love platonically.” V. Sonawane – IB Times
Pretty cool huh? We get Valentine’s Day and he gets National Boyfriend’s Day. LOL. But, seriously we are going to see each other this weekend and I’ll treat him to dinner. However, let it be said that I don’t need to show him how much I appreciate him by giving him gifts. He’s a pretty simple man and before you get it twisted, I don’t need him to spoil me with gifts either.
Since he is an avid reader of my blog I thought it would be a great idea to tell him publicly (and of course my closest friends) how much I appreciate him. Here’s my letter to him:
Dear Babe:
Thank you for the many hours of conversation that you provide. Thank you for consoling me when my worries and anxiety threaten to consume me. Thank you for the many dates you spend enjoying my presence and courting my spirit. Thank you for friendship, for prayer and for love.
In honor of National Boyfriend’s Day I want to thank you publicly for being you. You have become my biggest supporter and my best friend. You help me to see that there are no limits that I can’t reach and you calm my tormented spirit just by being in my presence. I truly want to thank you for who you are and what you do.
I thank God each and every day for you because you really make me love and appreciate the healthy and normal. Our relationship is ever evolving and moods change often, but you respect me like I respect you to give each other space. I want to thank you for always giving me time even when you’re too exhausted to give it. I want to thank you for the last year, for today and for the future. I want to spend every day loving the space that you and I create and honoring you with all that I am and all that I have. Thank you for loving my erratic mind, my quirky spirit and the essence of me. I love you.
You think he’ll like it?
Absolutely. 😊
Ha I get out of this one!
Yes, you do. You newlywed you.
lols .
I’m sure he would love that, I didn’t honor mines I fussed him out. But he felt the love.
LOL, as long as he felt the love. Thank you.
Lol
Huh?!
Another unofficial holiday created by a man to get treated special since we get Valentine’s Day.
Hahahaha!
Yes, I am certain he will! 🙂
Thank you. I hope so.
Yes he will!
I also read that it was taco day or maybe taco week. I’m cool with that 😎
Me too. I LOVE TACOS. I want one now.
Beautiful
Thank you.
Thanks sis!
Seriously! Who makes this stuff up? Every day has some random special something attached to it. Happy belated boyfriend day, tehehe.
LOl, I was thinking the same thing. Probably some man who felt like men got the shaft for Valentine’s Day. It’s cool though. He got dinner and a public acknowledgement of my love.
I sure hope so, it’s lovely!
Thank you. He loved it.
Beautiful! He better like! I’m over here blushing for him hehe
LOL, he said he loved it and was blushing when he read it. He’s a good guy.
If he loves you, he will love what you wrote – it’s from the heart!
Excellent.
🙂
Thank you. He loved it.
Will he like it? Hell, I like it.
Aww, thanks T. He sent me text saying how much he was blushing and he very much appreciated it.
I know National Boyfriend Day is over but you quote to him was amazing! I hope he enjoyed it😊😊
Thank you. Yes, he did. He told me he was blushing when he read it.
😉 good for you!
