Don't we all...

Jenn in Washington, DC
That doesn't sound like too much to ask for.

Good luck, with that lazy attitude...

Don't we all? It is kind of sad that we let children grow up thinking this could happen.
+ November 29, 2006 06:32 AM +
Amy in UK
I want that too :-(

WOW! this says it all....

Me too.

Amen.

Isn't that what we all want? :-)

Best FOUND yet. Sweet. Well said.

Sam in North Carolina
Sad that we'd let people think this could happen? It does, and it's wonderful.
+ November 29, 2006 09:06 AM +
Star in Utah
It is exactly what I wanted...
... I just don't know how I got so lucky to have found it.

Don't give up! He's out there.

Odd Nick in CA
It always starts out that way, and if you stick with it through the times that suck, it happens again from time to time. Unless you live in a fairytale, which has been known to happen, these are the moments in between living, not everyday life. If more people realized that happiness is little moments rather than a continuous good feeling the divorce rate might go down.

Maybe I'll cook my husbands favorite dinner tonight...

Well said, Odd Nick!

If by "someone" she means "anyone", I can't say that this is something any of us should actually want, too.
+ November 29, 2006 12:17 PM +
Megan in Cambridge, Ma
The hopeless romantic in me just smiled, and the cynic's heart in me just dropped.

I hope she finds him or her.
+ November 29, 2006 01:23 PM +
Charlotte in Bristol
Viktor? What?! It's sad if we let children grow up thinking that it couldn't happen. We all need that tenderness in our lives...

+ November 29, 2006 02:27 PM +

sigh... I wish for that too

... Still waiting for this throughout my whole lifetime...

It is funny. I was just thinking these thoughts to myself today. I am going through the lonely period. I guess reading this "found note" made me realize that there are so many individuals out there who are searching, like me.
+ November 29, 2006 05:09 PM +
Ange in Melbourne, AU
This find is really sweet. I think its great that 'must have nice car / house / high-flying job' don't rate a mention. Obviously those negative people out there are in desperate need of some love in their lives too.

Me "twoh".

That really is sweet. I hope she finds what she's looking for... I know I did.

i had that, but lost it..and now that is all i wish for.

Shannon in Kelowna, BC
That was both touching and honest.
+ November 29, 2006 06:40 PM +
Ursula in Chicago, IL
I love the honesty and the sense of hope. It was nice to see this, I've been so cynical lately.

Wow, guess I'm not the only one.

NaughtyAelf in Madison, WI
My kid is asleep or I would let her read this. She's almost 10, and going through her first crush. *sigh* Yeah. At least this weekend I get to see my partners again... You can get the whole package, but the rest of the contents come along too! :) And Himself has dibs on the secret decoder ring.
+ November 29, 2006 11:12 PM +
Jan in Michigan
I already posted that I share the writer's "wishlist" but I'd also like to point out that those are all things I would like to reciprocate. Wouldn't it be nice...
+ November 29, 2006 11:55 PM +
Amanda in Wisconsin
I wonder if she ever found him... Probably not if she's from La Crosse, WI(I should know i'm here too!)
+ November 30, 2006 12:23 AM +

I couldn't agree with you more tbone, problem is, loneliness and desperation can cause you to compromise yourself in ways you never thought possible.
+ November 30, 2006 01:25 AM +
Peter in indie in Indy
Right on, You got to name it before you can find it...
+ November 30, 2006 10:52 AM +
Wendy in Texas
That used to be all I wished for too, until I found it when I wasn't looking. Now I've got everything she describes, and more, every single day of my life.
+ November 30, 2006 01:20 PM +
Jennifer Crighton in Calgary
it's is funny how we all try to make it about more stuff, we over complicate the obvious, its nice to be around peole we love becuae its nice to be around them, thats that
+ November 30, 2006 07:45 PM +
Cassie in Wisconsin (262)
Aw man. It's so sad how teens ((like me)) grow up thinking that there might be something like this in the world. Someday's I really hate it.
+ November 30, 2006 09:28 PM +
Jonathan in gilbert, az
I know someone that loves you like that!

i have this someone, but i don't want him anymore.

To tenique,
it's better to hurt him now then your self in the long run.

All I got is Universal love.

Alesstto in Boston, MA
Jonathan,

While it is a wonderful feeling, basking in the light of God's love, while we are here on earth it is sometimes hard to feel it as significantly as an actual hand against your face, or arms which tighten in an embrace.

I sincerely wish that the writer of this note never gives up the hope of finding a person who does this for her/him. Because, even if it is only for a short while, it is worth the wait.
+ December 01, 2006 04:11 PM +
Woodmaker in Avon Lake, OH
Wow! Seems a note like this draws out if you are a glass-half-empty or glass-half-full person, huh?

Geez, that made me almost cry.

I'm so damn lucky to have someone who loves me as much as he does.

The handwriting looks fairly androgenous to me. It literally could've been written by anyone, and being and gay and single, that thought makes me happy.
+ December 02, 2006 01:05 AM +
Sorcha in Canadaland
*Le sigh* - I found my "someone" but he doesn't like me playing with his ears.

I agree Christian it could've been written by anyone at any age.
+ December 02, 2006 10:56 AM +
Kate in Vancouver, BC
I spent years looking for these things in other people - all I wanted was "true love."

I found it.

As Odd Nick said, 'happiness is little moments' and the ones I share with my husband (and now our son) get me through my days.

all the stuff, all the money....you still gotta love who you lie down next to in bed each night...or the world doesn't amount to much more than a hill of beans

I was this for someone, who left me last year, and I have been pining since.

Now THIS is what I am asking Santa for this year :)

I have it for now, but he is going to leave me soon. Sometimes no matter how close you are to someone nor how much you care, it doesn't work. I love you and I'm going to miss you.

i have been looking at this site for a long time now, but i havent checked it recently. glad that i finally did or i wouldnt have saw this...i reognize this hand writing.

Try to find happiness first with the person that you are.
I have wanted what you want for years.

I was all weepy reading this until the "God loves you" posts came up.

Cracked me up. I gotta say, not quite the same thing. Even with Mary it was an "immaculate" conception, God just doesn't do that sorta thing. Isn't there a South Park episode where Cartmen sings Christian rock and the lyrics about how he loves Jesus are all sexual?

This is all I want to be to her, and she told me that she couldn't be happier right now. I told her I could think of one thing missing, and she said she doesn't think any guy could make her happier! :'(

I want someone who I dont ever want to feel like I need to write a note like that to!

I hope for her sake he listened...

after a heartbreak today, i want that more than anything.

maybe i'll start studying and focusing just knowing there's someone there who loves me

good luck

I hope you find it. I know I did. And I waited FOREVER. Good Luck.

HAPPY in MIAMI
When I was 15 I thought I was going to die alone with 13 cats. I wrote notes like that over and over again. When i was 16 i found it and since then we've lived happily ever after.
Be patient =)

Amber in Kansas City
Well that's an easy thing for you to say if you really found your soul mate, or whatever, at the age of SIXTEEN. Nobody actually does that anymore...how old are you now?
+ February 18, 2007 06:34 PM +
Amanda in Ohio
When I first saw this a few months ago I thought this was exactly what I didn't want and that I would never want it, that I just wasn't that kind of girl. Now that I've got it I know I was wrong. Thanks Justin :]

Dear Steph,

I am that guy. I love you!

man, that almost made me cry. But then I am both premenstrual and hungover.

I want this so badly!!!!! I wish someone would be this sweet to me! Oh this breaks my poor little heart!

The simplicity in this statement is what makes it so beautiful.
There are still plenty of those people out there. What is that old saying? "Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of toads before you find your prince.

HadThatOnce in Austin, Texas
I had that once but then he broke my heart and now my poor little heart can't help but worry I'll never find that again, but even worse, that if I ever do, I'll be to scared to trust that it is true.

The careful block printing seems strangely unsuited to this subject matter... intruiguing.

can't we all just get it on in montana

Just reading that reminds me how lucky I am to have someone who gives me all that, and more.
I hope she found what she wanted, and appreciates it with all her heart.
+ June 23, 2008 11:39 AM +
Gittin' it on, Montana Style, only now I'm in WaRshington
..And if you can't beeee.. with the one you love, honey, Love the One you're With! (do do do do do do do do..)

I must say though, that this Find immediately brought to mind the Depeche Mode song Somebody, which is a really beautiful song.

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
(blah blah blah.)

Lovely sentiments. It all fades too quickly.
