"You're my one and only, and I see us achieving dreams together—building a home, exploring beautiful places, and growing old with you. Despite past misunderstandings and those to come, I'm grateful for your understanding and for staying with me. I promise to do the same for you. Your unconditional love, patience, and never-give-up attitude mean the world. I love you now and always."
