There have been so many days when I wanted to tell you how much I loved you. There have been days when my heart was heavy with morose thoughts because I thought maybe, for one minute that you might not love me, or care for me. I still don’t know if you do or do not. I wish that we could be like Abelard and Heloise, and this letter was written by candlelight, and that it was tear stained in all the right places, or that I struggled knowing I would never see you again. This is not the case. I want to call you my best friend, but am scared of frightening you away because I know how fragile your heart is, and how it has been marred by all those people before me. I know this letter is just a stream of consciousness, string of words, but it is my confession to you. You are gorgeous, you are handsome, you are funny and sweet and smart, and I’ve thought about marrying you, or wishing you would even think to ask. You are perfect. I wish I could be perfect for you.

My Story:
My name is Alex Boles, and I am the founder of the Unwritten Letters Project. The pages of my diary and the letters scattered in notebooks, stationary and on various napkins consisted of the torments of my young adult/teenage years -- being an overweight, yet outgoing teen trying desperately to fit in and be recognized. Bullying was like breathing, something I dealt with every day. Although it gave me the inspiration to want to make a difference in the world, others are not as willing to see these circumstances as something to overcome and remain stronger for, most bullied kids and teens only see this as a recognition of unworthiness and a reason to let go. It is my personal goal to make an impact on the bullied and the bullies to make them know that every person is worthy of their own life, their own voice, and the action to take is to share your voice in any creative way imaginable. Write! Act! Draw! Paint! Speak up for yourself and take ownership of your circumstances. Use this website and our resources to overcome any obstacles and become the stronger person you and I both know you are.
