Simply...
...because you can make me laugh even though I feel like crying.
...because you can make me jealous and happy at the same time.
...because you don't bring out the best in me but you made me see beyond the bestest me.
...because I am me when I am with you and you are you when you're with me.
...because I can fart and burp all I want in front of you without even thinking that you might get turned off of that.
...because you are my friend even before I fell for you.
Most importantly, I love you because...
...you made me realize you are not worth loving and I am worthy of a man who can speak his heart out and tell me that he does love me in any way he can.
And I thank you for that.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
