Letters between lovers

There's always been something about love letters that get me all mushy inside , the thought of someone spending time writing their thoughts to you and even the idea that someone wasn't afraid to express their sweet words to you , no let me clarify I am talking the good kind of love letter the one that's says "dear Jane you mean the world to me and since I met you my world has gone to a place where I never thought existed a place called heaven" not the bad kind like "dear Jane you mean the world to me but....I feel we have outgrown each other ." Beethoven always got it soooooo right , recently I read a love letter of his and I felt the passion I felt the love in the letter ... know what I mean??

"My angel, my all , my very self - only a few words today and at that with your pencil - not till tomorrow will my lodgings be definitely determined upon - what a useless waste of time, why this deep sorrow where necessity speaks - can our love endure except through sacrifices - except through not demanding everything -can you change it that you are not wholly mine , I not wholly thine?

Oh, God ! look out into the beauties of nature and comfort yourself with that which must be - love demands everything and that very justly - that it is with me so far as you are concerned , and you with me . If we were wholly united you would feel the pain of it as little as !! 

Now a quick change to things internal from things external. We shall surely see each other ; moreover , I cannot communicate to you the observations I made during the last few days touching my own life - if our hearts were always close together I would make none of the kind. My heart is full of many things to say to you - Ah! - there are moments when I feel that speech is nothing after all - cheer up - remain my true , only treasure , my all as I am yours ; the gods must send us the rest that which shall be best for us." 

Your faithful
Ludwig 

So here is a very special question for those in love, with plus ones etc , what is the most romantic thing that you or your other half has done THIS YEAR? and for the single people like myself what are you waiting for ? for me I am waiting for that person that makes me not wanna be single and "free" anymore .
