You make small failures less embarrassing by laughing at them with me.

I like how you steal the front seat and then offer it with a grin.

You showed up with soup when I was sick; I still have the spoon you left.

I’m grateful you keep my secrets even when it would be easier to share them.

You bring snacks to my late shifts and change the whole night for me.

You sit through my bad movies and never complain; that’s loyalty I can count on.

I notice when you text me fewer photos; I worry and then I text back faster.

You make giving advice feel less like instruction and more like company.

I appreciate how you remember everyone’s birthdays and still forget your own keys.

You borrowed my jacket and left it on the chair; I like having your scent in the apartment.

I’ll be the person who holds the umbrella when you forget yours again.

I feel steady when you say my name, nothing dramatic, just steady and real.

I kept the parking stub from the night we laughed badly at the movie; tiny souvenir.

I loved how you defended that small idea in the meeting; you sounded sure.

I want to text you random updates about my day because I like including you.
