Welcome to Gaia! ::

He's not my lover, not yet, but he's my best friend and I like him more than some silly little crush.
Physically, he's tall, just a teeny bit taller than me, we're both hovering between 6'0" and 6'1", and he's skinny, but not too skinny, just right, you know? He's got the greatest smile I've ever seen, it's like, movie-star quality, it's just one of those amazing, incredible, impeccable smiles and whenever he smiles at me it feels just... amazing. He's got beautiful skin, it's like, coppery-caramel (he's first nations), and near-black hair that's just a little long, and has amazing body that I'm pretty jealous of, and he has cut so it sweeps diagonally across his forehead and just above his eyes. His eyes are really dark, I can't see where his pupils end and his irises begin most of the time (without being creepy), and I get distracted if I look into them while I'm trying to speak. XP! And his hands, they're... my favourite. XD They're big, with long, elegant fingers and they're knobbly with prominent knuckles and wrist joints and they're always warm and I love to touch them D: Hahaha.
(I'd post a picture so you could see him, but I'd feel weird about it, you know?)
And it's funny, I never really notice a guy physically until I know him as a person. I had no idea he was so gorgeous until I was already crushing on him. XP That happened last time, too.

I met him through a friend I was on the school swim team with in grade 9. I didn't really hang out with that crowd all that much because I was chasing another guy and focused on becoming part of the 'in-crowd', which was stupid and a waste of my time. They're kindasorta losers, but it's way awesome and I've had more fun hanging out with them than I ever did trying to be someone I'm not. I freaking love all of them. xD
So I didn't really meet-meet him until after I got over the whole popularity chasing thing, so maybe two years ago or so. I don't really remember. I mostly hung out with my friend who's his friend, but then he and I got closer, and now we hang out at lot. XP (we flirt constantly, XD We're always touching each other, and it's electric. XP) My memory's pretty fuzzy, I don't remember a specific point in time... it's bad. XP

As a person, he's... gah. He's got such an incredible personality. He's so optimistic and always lighthearted, and no matter what's wrong or what I'm going through, he can always make me feel better :3 I can't be with him and not laugh, he's always funny and witty in just the same ways I am, and when we hang out, it's being with a soulmate, he understands me completely, we have the same views and ambitions and ideas and habits and everything, it's just been amazing hanging out with him and getting to know him better. It's hard to describe his personality, I've had a lot of trouble writing this bit. xP All I know is that he's my kind of guy, someone perfect for me that makes me so completely happy, and I kinda hope that things go how I'd like them to in the future.

I know the OP asked for stuff about your lovers, and this doesn't /really/ fit the criteria, because I don't love him yet, I'm not in love with him yet, but still. xP I'd love for him to be my lover eventually. XD
