Submissive Counterpart

"You're just like me, Ryan, you are just like me!!!" She hissed as she rolled over in the bed we'd shared for the first three months of living together as newlyweds. 

Too tired to start another endless argument with a girl who thrived on drama, I simply rolled over too. I wanted more than anything to yell in that moment. "No, you are wrong, I am not!!!" But I gave in. 

She loved having the last word, and more often than not, she did. I think we fought because the make up sex was so damn great. But me, the weak submissive counterpart of the whole shindig thought I'd better just say, "Yes dear, you are right and I am wrong." The sure fire way to end any argument with a girl. 

I can't recall the events that led to those unfortunate quarrels that frequented our supposed marital bliss, but it was the moments near the end of most of them that are permanently seared into my memory.

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
