When I grow up, and my little girl asks me who my first love was, I don&#039;t want to have to pull out the old photo album, I want to be able to point across the room and say &#039;He&#039;s right there&#039; :)<br /> <br /> I wanna be the girl he gives his hoodie to wear and cuddles up next to when it&#039;s cold, he&#039;ll be the one that comes up behind me, wraps his arms around my waist, catches me off guard and whispers... you look beautiful. :) <br /> <br /> Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.<br /> <br /> I&#039;ve fallen in love many times... always with you<br /> <br /> The most beautiful view is the one I share with you.<br /> <br /> Our love could change the orbit of the earth. So, if a meteor ever comes hurtling towards earth with the guarantee of destruction, top scientists may call on us to, well, you know, do it like crazy for the sake of humankind.<br /> <br /> Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you.<br /> <br /> Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end<br /> <br /> Love is only a dirty trick played on us to achieve continuation of the species.<br /> <br /> &quot;Accepting&quot; someone means finding beauty in the ugliness, virtues in the flaws. If you cannot do that, then you do not know how to &#039;accept&#039; someone.<br /> <br /> I see your smile, I feel your lips, I anticipate your arms, I expect your heart. I am totally and completely in love with you.<br /> <br /> Every time i think of you.. i always get the butterflies in my tummy, my heart starts racing, and my mind starts wondering! Your the only one i want to be with!<br /> <br /> For whatever reasons,,you&#039;re the best thing that ever happened to me...<br /> <br /> Everybody says that hate is a strong word, that you should not use it, but love is a strong word too and people throw it out like it is nothing.<br /> <br /> Money, fame and fortune can never compete with u, baby, your all ill ever need!! &lt;3 I love you<br /> <br /> i get so excited when i text you and in 30 seconds my phones buzzes and the butterflies get worse when i see your name across the top<br /> <br /> Age doesn&#039;t matter when you fall in love with someone, what matters is how much you cannot stand being without them.<br /> <br /> I&#039;m the girl your ex will hate, I&#039;m the girl your mother will love, And I&#039;m the girl you&#039;ll want forever &lt;3<br /> <br /> If nothing lasts forever, would you be my NOTHING?<br /> <br /> As long as i can make you smile at least once a day my life will be worth while...<br /> <br /> Committing your love to someone means losing the chance to experience another&#039;s love. So just be sure the person you&#039;re committed to deserves your love.<br /> <br /> &quot;the longer you wait for something,the more you appreciate it when you get it, because anything worth having is definitely worth waiting for&quot;..^_^
