Because you're smart and funny and apparently I have a fascination with grumpy older guys. I was gonna marry one and now I'm dating another and I'm not sayin' I got a crush on you or anything like that, but there's kind of a pattern, right?

But you're also a really good friend and you remind me to lighten up when I get down on myself, which I really need in my life. You help me understand things better, too.
