2007-04-03 This is for you Jo

First the facts. I’m Finnish, Jo’s German and there’s about 2000km between us. So yeah, this is a long distance relationship.

Without a certain band we wouldn’t be together. I know it’s almost like a cliché * blush *. Soon after Depeche Mode released Exciter, me and you became friends. It definitely was one the best things that happened to me. I mean you don’t meet everyday a person who has such good music taste. Well the story goes on and DM(Depeche Mode) released Playing the Angel in 2005. 6th of March 2006 we were already together. DM had a gig in Helsinki on that day, and somehow we had decided to go there together. Well I don’t mind.

This means that today or tomorrow we have been together for one year and I don’t think I would change anything that happened, no matter what. Sure it wasn’t all that happy but mostly, well I know this is a cliché, I couldn’t live without you, not anymore. You have brought so good tunes in my life. And I want to share everything with you. It’s bizarre, it feels like I had found missing piece or something (another cliché, * blush *). I never imagined I would feel something like this and be with you.

I have also other reasons to love you than your damn good music taste. (And I’m a girl to whom it matters, in the end I have great music taste too. Sure it might be a taste of 30 years old man but I should know that they have fucking good music taste .) It was clear from the beginning, already when we were just friends that we have a lot in common. We agree in most things and in those that we don’t, well then we can always talk. And I think I haven’t talked with anyone as much as I have talked with you. It’s definitely one of the things I love so much in you, we can be open about pretty much everything (I think I am much more open nowadays). So we talk about everything, from everyday subjects to politics, sex, art or music :headphones:. Although I said we can talk about everything, it is not necessary to talk all the time. We can be quiet too. We can do things on our own, without feeling that other one is left alone. And I always feel comfortable and safe with you.

You have all the qualities I wish from a person I love. I couldn’t earlier tell what I want from a man, but now I know. I wish nothing as much as that we could be together still for a very long time, and little foot prints tattooed on my back.

Thank you Jo for everything (including helping me with this entry <3).
