I Miss You.

Think back to the day when you first laid eyes on her. You found urself charmed by the way she talks, the way she dresses herself to show off her best features and the way she embraces life with her laughter. It seemed as if a mysterious "chemistry effect" has suddenly developed to draw you closer to her. You two then began to meet regularly, and you discover more things tt you admire about her. Her clever ideas, her healthy values and the way she stands up for you when others doubt you. You find yourself thinking of her not just as a normal friend, but a very gd friend. It is often during this period tt a boy and a gal will start thinking of bringing their friendship to another level. After all, the kind of wonderful experience you've between each other can only become even better if it develops into a romantic relationship. In other words, the feeling is really unique - no one else seems able to replace her in your heart. So both of you agree to go be together & work even harder on the relationship. u "graduate" to become a couple, and are the envy of the sea of singles.

When u Forget The Fundamentals, however, at some point in ur relationship, u forgot how it all began. You start to take your partner for granted. Why can't she laugh in a more ladylike manner? Why doesn't she dress herself more trendily? Why must she assert her views and point out your silly mistakes? Is she really the one for you? To be fair to yourself and to her, take some time to reflect on your "love memory". The "love memory' contains all the reasons tt u fell in love with her right from Day One. It contains rarely accessed snippets of how your life has changed since meeting & loving her. Pre-steady days, did you heap compliments on her for the brave way she spoke her mind on bullies and snobs? You probably did. Did you like her unusual fashion sense tt makes her stand out from the crowd? Who I Want to Meet: Right. So why are you criticising or finding fault with her now that she is your girlfriend? Because you have forgotten the fundamentals of love, like so many of us. You have forgotten the reasons you admired her during the friendship phase. Instead, once you went steady, you put your "love memory" in cold storage. As her boyfriend, you take up a new set of demands and expectations abouther. These new ideas are not necessarily better; they could put your relationship at risk.

The Secret Of Strong Relationships, a healthy relationship, like learning to walk properly, follows a step-by-step development. You can't possibly become part of a couple if you aren't friends in the first place. Ok, I know some of us break the rule and plunge straight into whirlwind courtship, but how many of those couples can go the distance? So whenever your relationship hits a rocky path, don't give up without checking on your "love memory".

I miss your voice
I miss your smile
I miss your touch
I miss your laughter
I miss running my fingers thru your hair
I miss looking deep into your eyes
I miss the way you look at me
I miss holding your hand
I miss you whispering 'I miss you'
I miss your child-like innocence
I miss your unspoken gentleness
I miss your silent sweetness
I miss your tender lovingness
I miss your unassuming thoughtfulness
I miss your wisdom
I miss your words of encouragement
I miss the many times we had meals together at your table
I miss the many times we spent window-shopping at things we love
I miss the hours just watching tv on the couch and holding you
I miss the days we spent studying together
I miss the evenings we walked home up that slope
I miss the nights at your doorstep where we couldn't bear to say goodbye
I miss the countless waves of goodbyes we had at your window
I miss those runs i had to make to catch the last bus home
I miss those late nite calls
I miss those cards in which you wrote special somethings
I miss being there for you when you needed me
I miss you being there for me when I needed you

I miss you so bad it hurts. Everyday.
