He's deep. We have really deep discussions about life and love and everything and he totally understands things from a girls perspective. Not that I like him, but he is the ideal boyfriend. The things he does for his Emily.. it makes my heart break from how good he is to her. I told him he needed to write a book or give tutorials to every guy out there because they're all hopeless idiots. He just laughed.
We had a conversation earlier. The nature of the conversation led me to tell him that he was the greatest and I love him to death. He responded,
"Mackenzie, you just made my day. :) I think you are outstanding and sweet and beautiful and smart and funny and outgoing and just a rose among thorns! You deserve the best."This kid knows how it's done.
I said, "Thank you so much Tanner, you are too sweet. :)"
"No, there is no such thing as too sweet! Just honest and telling you what I think you should be hearing daily!"
"Do you think I should hear that daily? Isn't that asking too much?"
"That isn't asking too much at all. It may not be said exactly like that all the time but I think you should be told that exact thing with a look from a guy, a hug, a kiss, from holding his hand, and having him say it to you."
"Really? Oh, Tanner, I am so grateful to have you around. Your wisdom is wonderful! Emily is so lucky to have you!"
"Well I'm always here for you Mackenzie :) Any guy would be lucky to have you. I am lucky to just have you as a friend."
He always makes me feel like I deserve the best the world has to offer. He reminds me that I am special and unique and loved. He shows me how a girl ought to be treated. Talking to Tanner is so refreshing whenever I feel like I'm not worth much effort or love.
