Nothing is too corny for someone who IS corny. If Ashten likes you the way you are, then give her a piece of writing that is who you are. If you act lovey and silly and awesome around her but you give her a letter that's solemn and serious, what use is that? Don't worry. Never worry. She likes you for you, not the hyper-romantic gentlemen you want to be. ... wow, you calling me Nickie brought back a lot of repressed emotions for me. I always wanted to be called Nicky when I was young and then I got to an age where I thought it was too childish, so I had people start calling me Nick or Nicholas. It took people a while to get used to, but yeah.

Anyway, I'd been holding back a little as to not smother her or scare her off or anything. Then (after I wrote that), I asked her how close/cute (which was the best term I could come up with) of a couple she wants us to be on a scale of 1 to 10. She said, and this blew my freaking mind, NINE! That made me love her even more and I told her I was holding back, but I guess I didn't have to anymore. Then, I added quite a bit to the poem and showed it to her. She loved. Then, I asked her if she was happy with our relationship and what I could do to be a better boyfriend. She said, "I think you're perfect right now." I wanted to cry.

So that's why I bought a sandwich.

(tell me if any of you get the reference)
