More to Go
October 2026 marks our third month together, and it feels like we have known each other far longer.
We come from the same country, share similar views on life, and both studied in the United States. We connected easily and felt at ease with each other.
You are an old soul, and somehow I can feel you. No matter how hard I pushed you away because of our differences, you stayed. You gave me a sense of security that no one else ever has. With everything you have done for me and for our future, I cannot find the words to express my gratitude and love.
We had the moments every new couple goes through: nervous and careful with our words at the start. We cracked up at each other’s jokes. We annoyed each other sometimes. We had hiccups and misunderstandings, and we even yelled at each other over the phone. You shared your worries over texts and calls about how I made you feel. Through all of it, we chose to keep going and see where this takes us.

Someday, when we make it to our wedding, I will tell my loved ones that we met on TikTok, rather than invent a more conventional story. It is a lovely encounter that brought us together. We spend so much time believing genuine relationships must arrive in a traditional way, but we both enjoy things that are adventurous and a little outside the box. You inspired me to think differently and guided me toward brighter paths I had not considered.
I appreciate you for leading me to be a better person and for “holding my hand” through thick and thin, even when I knew I could do better. You say the roughest words with good intentions, and you have a warm heart for the people you care about.
To more lovely days and nights together,
Love is no fairy tale. It is two souls choosing each other through every obstacle, and learning how to make it work.
爱情不是真空里的童话，它是两个灵魂在漫长岁月里的磨合
I love you, Liam.
