Dear Ryder,
I know.  Everything you said, I already know.  I even appreciate it.
I didn't mean to make you feel like you had to rush into anything.
We have all the time in the world.  I also want you to know that
I'm constantly in awe of you.  Sometimes you're my wild and crazy
mate just the way I remember you and sometimes you're this new
shy, scared person who's equally adorable as the first.  I hope
you never lose this duplicity.  It's very sexy.  

with love,
Lawrence
