Dear Boyfriend,

Please note I am aware that I have been a psychotic girlfriend as of late. There is basically no excuse for my actions. I want to thank you for not shooting me in the face this past week.

I realize that my obsessive behavior about furniture can appear as a serious psychological problem. However, I realize this and apologize for trying to get rid of most of the furniture you own; including but not limited to your couch, your coffee table, your TV stand (both of them,) your desk, and hrmm, I’m sure there’s something else that inadvertently got thrown to the curb.

Your sense of style (if mis-match furniture was ever a style) is debatable, but I know I should respect your need to keep the stuff you purchased less than 2 years ago (even if it doesn’t match or have a use in this house.) After all, I’m one of those things you’ve acquired since moving into this house, and it’s nice that you want to keep me around, even when I seem useless. Thanks for not inadvertently throwing me to the curb.

Also, thank you for understanding and being flexible. Thank you for loading and squeezing box after box of collapsed furniture into your beloved car. Thank you for trusting my sense of style and helping me install the shelves to the walls. Thank you for responding to my screams (with ample amounts of alcohol) as I continuously battle with the meaning of “some assembly required.”

You are truly a gem.

Love,
Becky

P.S. Would you like to join me at The Ikea on Sunday to pick out a new headboard?
