I am sooooo very very happy to have you back in your rightful position as my boyfriend! Feeling your arms around me at night, waking up next to you and making plans for our future make my heart swell to near bursting with happiness.
I'm glad that the friends and fam have taken it so well, since, you know, third time's a charm! As our favourite community college go-er says: "Cool cool!"
Here's to the shared bottles of wine, the ethnic take-out food dinners, the bbq'd s'mores and the foot massages of our future! I love you SO much! —Your 'Most Treasured Princess'
How can a man's death (whom I've only met once) leave such a grievous emptiness in my soul? On the 22nd we toasted your contributions and vision. Lit a candle to represent your hope.
Perhaps it's the hope and dreams in me that you resonated with.
To have a better Canada, one that I can be proud of again. With ideals of bringing people UP instead of pushing them down.
For whatever reason you have impacted my life, I will miss you and I vow to continue to speak up and speak out, to take action with those who are marginalized, strive together to make your vision, OUR vision of Canada come to fruition. —Re Engaged

I realize that some of my dates may be jerks, and others are not. It is a lesson for me to know how to manipulate my life to be authentic, especially in terms of another person. I wish you could just stay near anyway. No matter what. I need to really be myself and time to explore life after a few years of nothingness. I'm not able to commit to anything for a long while. I'm sorry it's that way. But why can't we be friends, ya know? I miss you. I hate the way you alwasy run pracitcally to another continent to get away from me. Because I would walk a thousand miles more. —Glass Woman
You've given me butterflies for the past 7 years and I'm sure you will for the next 70. I can't wait to start a life, a family with you and grow old with you. We've had our ups and downs but we always sort things out. I am so happy with you now, we're opening up and understanding each other. I think where we are right now in our relationship is where we need to be just for now. I love you dearly, I can't wait to spend eternity with you my big handsome beautiful man. xoxo —S.K.
Thanks to The Coast for giving a chance for us to read about what really happened aboard the Tahrir Boat to Gaza —from a Halifax Jew who went. I know you'll get a lot of flack from Jews who uncritically support Israel, but Miles Howe's cover story (Aug. 18) was a breath of fresh air. —East Coast Judy
Hey, you're going to UBC, but before you did, you gave away all your stuff. Spread it on the front lawn and floored everyone who passed by with your generosity. Thank You. —Yoga Mat Guy

We're so glad there is a restaurant with awesome Korean breakfasts in the West End now! It was nice to have a healthy, tasty breakfast and it brought back so many great memories of our time in Korea! Mashissoyo! —Former ESL Teacher

To R,

We met on Agricola Street to see an apartment - I was late (ring ring), and you were early. You were stunningly beautiful and I was clumsily awkward. If it weren't for your recent circumstances, I would have asked you out.
Until the next time we meet.
