9 reasons i love you

...

  1. 01

    You always make me feel so special. You never miss a chance to make me feel like the luckiest boy in the world, and I admire that about you so much.

  2. 02

    You are so passionate about your career, and I love seeing you work so hard. You inspire me to want to do great things with my life.

  3. 03

    You have the prettiest smile I have ever seen. The sound of your giggle and the smile on your face make me so happy.

  4. 04

    You are such a family girl. The fact that you are your grandpa's favorite person, the princess I see you be in your house, makes me so happy.

  5. 05

    Your reassurance is so comforting. You never once give me a reason to doubt you, and you make it so easy for me to trust you.

  6. 06

    You truly leave the best impression on everyone you meet. Everyone I have always introduced you to has always said the most amazing things about you.

  7. 07

    You are so healthy and inspire me to be healthy. The way you cook, the way you approach your life. It makes me so excited that I get to marry you one day.

  8. 08

    Every time I see your face, I want to kiss you so so so bad. Your cheeks are my weakness. I want to kiss you forever and ever and ever. You are just the prettiest girl ever.

  9. 09

    You are the best, most inspiring, and sweetest girl I have ever met. I think the biggest compliment that I can give you is that you are the type of girl I want my sister to be, and such a big reason for why I am so sure about you is because I see the example so you set for her and want her to be inspired by you, which she is so much. I love you, Nehal!

hotel night #1 + the day i asked you out ...

this was one of my favorite days i have ever lived and probably one of the most important days of my life. it was such a magical experience getting to experience sleeping in the same bed as you and being so close to you. i remember feeling so happy buying your flowers at kroger and making sure this day was so special. nine months later and i'd choose this day all over again, every single time.

9 Month Anniversary

Dear Pant, My princess Pant. I cannot believe it has already been 9 amazing months with you. I was texting Rehan that it was our nine month anniversary and this is what he said to me: "That's really beautiful btw congratulations …Can't believe it's already been so long … She really something special".

Nehal, that is the impression somebody that has never met you has of you. He sees how happy you make me and how I talk about you. It's not just him. My friends, my mom, the rest of my family … they all see what you mean to me and appreciate you so much for who you are. I said it above in the 9 reasons I love you and I'll say it again, you leave the most positive impression on everybody you meet and it makes me so happy that you are my girlfriend.

I know being my girlfriend comes with its ups and downs. I know recently it has been a bit difficult for you and there is no one to blame for that but me, but I genuinely want to work towards being the best boyfriend you could ever ask for. Yesterday, when the thought of our relationship coming to an end entered my mind, my body went into straight panic mode.

Love is such a weird thing. It can be one of the happiest feelings but the thought losing that love is one of the most scariest things I could ever think of. Loving you is that but 10x the scale. You have become embedded into my life in a way that I could have never even imagined. You have become a genuine part of me, my favorite person to come home to even when home is a phone screen, something I could never ever imagine losing.

I am so excited for the future with you. The thought of supporting you through medical school, becoming a doctor and lawyer power couple, asking you to be wife in Lake Como, marrying you in front of both our families in both traditions, and starting a life with you is so exciting. Just thinking about sleeping in the same bed and waking up, working out, cooking breakfast together is so exciting. The thought of opening my eyes and seeing you on the pillow next to me is the best version of any morning I can imagine. I know one day long distance will be worth it. I know it's difficult right now but you make every mile worth it.

This past April, when I came to Miami for your birthday, I fell so much more in love with you. I got a glimpse into the future and it made me realize just how much I love you and how excited I am for it.

Nehal, you are the most special girl I have ever seen in my life. You made me realize in less than 2 months that I want to make you my girlfriend, and in less than 12 months that I want to make you my wife. I know I'll have to wait until I can step on one knee on a yacht in the middle of Lake Como, go down on one knee, and ask the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on to be mine forever. If I could lock you in right now I would. Lake Como is just the formality.

I know that is a crazy thing to write for a 9 month anniversary, but you make me so sure of our love. Nehal, I cannot wait for the next 3 months and to spend this summer with you. We finally get a whole summer to ourselves and I cannot wait to repeat all of the memories you see above and make more new ones. I cannot believe we have already completed the first of what i hope is two years of long distance. The distance is hard, but you make every mile worth it. Just know, if its not, I'll make sure we beat every odds and I will be there and support you through every step of you journey.

I promise for our 1 year, you'll see just how special of a girl you are. I cannot wait for the next 3 months, and the rest of our lives together. I love you more than I did at month one, more than I did at month six, and somehow less than I will at month ten. Nehal, I love you so so much my princess. Happy 9 Month Anniversary sweet girl ❀️

valentines day 2025

nehal, where do i even begin? i want to start off by apologizing for so many things. i know i can be so much better as a boyfriend but i am so stubborn and aggressive with my opinions and i know that hurts you sometimes. i hope you are able to think back to all of the memories above to understand just how much i love you and what you mean to me. me not making a presentation for you wasn't because i don't care enough but more so because i just have really strong opinions and didn't want to do something just for the sake of doing it. if i am given the opportunity in person to spoil you and love you and make you smile, you know i always will do that.

but that is not what this is. read the website name at the top - ayaanandnehal.com. i want this website to serve as a way where i can talk to you and do sweet gestures like this because you are a princess and you deserve it so much.

i apologize also if i am not supportive enough of your goals. i value everything you do and work on so much but it would be so much easier if you did it all from next to me. i feel like i have little control over our relationship sometimes but hope that changes overtime as we grow up and get more freedom - because there is no one i would rather choose to spend that time with than you.

i cannot wait to live with you, travel with you. so far, you have genuinely been my other half and made me so so happy. i promise you will get spoiled with gifts and flowers and for your birthday and i will do a better job of showing you just how much i love you.

you have become such an important part of my life to the point where my family loves you so much. today nani came in my room to tell me "nehal ko bolna me yaad kar ri thi", which means she was telling me to tell you she was missing you.

nehal - i love you so so much. you have become such an important part of my life and i truly value your friendship and this relationship so much. thank you for the most amazing last 6-7 (677777) months of our life ;) I LOVE YOU SO, SO, SO much princess.
