5th Grader's Love Note Redefines Romance: 'I Feel Like I Have All The Pokémon'

Reddit

Guys, I have an announcement: We've found our modern-day Shakespeare. He's a hopeless romantic with an intense love for Pokemon.

Did I mention he's only in the fifth grade? Because he is, and he just put all of your relationships to shame.

The young boy – whose name was not disclosed – wrote a passionate love note to his crush that's way cuter than any Valentine I've ever received.

TBH, I can't handle the cuteness.

An impressed uncle couldn't handle it either, apparently. So, he posted the handwritten confession to Reddit after his niece received it in class. In the post, he wrote,

My niece is in 5th grade and got her first love note. This 5th grader has more game than I'll ever have.

Let's dissect the note, shall we? After all, we could all use a little mid-afternoon heartbreak once in a while.

He began by writing,

Dear Abbey, Your eyes remind me of the evening sky.

*PAUSE*

Are you taking notes, men?!

I'm almost 25, and I can't even get a guy to buy me a drink, let alone compare my eyes to an "evening sky."

But let's continue. He wrote,

My heart felt like broken glass until I saw you, and then, I felt like I had every Pokémon ever.

EVERY. POKÉMON. EVER.

Wow. I hope this chick knows her crush means business. That was one hell of a compliment.

But he didn't stop there.

I love how you play Zelda even when people think it's weird. If you liked me it would be my first ever victory.

OK, excuse me while I melt into a puddle on the floor.

It's safe to say that this kid deserves a freakin' medal.

In my opinion, the world would be a much nicer (and cuter) place if people starting writing love letters like this to one another.

I mean, let's face it: They're a lot more romantic than the "U up?" Tinder messages we're all used to.

Time to step it up, everyone.
