I've told you this before, but you have always felt like a big sister to me. Which I know that a lot of people probably feel that way about you, but I have never felt that way about someone else. You were the first person in our group (Outside of Ant and Linz who I met earlier) who really took the time to treat me kindly. You also helped me deal with the Katie stuff when it began and was tumultuous at best...I'm quite sure you are the kindest person I've ever known. And you are missed terribly.
You may laugh at this, but I consider you a role model. Ever since I've met you, I've always had a sense that you were the tribe elder. When people needed a problem resolved, some insight, or just someone to listen, your name is often spoken. I truly hope that when I'm your age, others would feel the same reverence towards me, that they do you.
It would be easier to answer "What don't I like about you." First off, you're the first female who's boobs I saw in real life that I wasn't dating. That right there puts you in a special place in my heart. But seriously, you were my main rock through much of getting acclamated into this group, and this culture. If I had any questions (of which there were many) you always took the time to explain it all to me. You were the first person to point out that I was in love with Katie, even though I still wouldn't admit it myself. But more then any of that, you have a gift for empathy. You can hone in on a person's feelings and share in their mood, whether glum or cheery. It makes you incredibly easy to be around, and an incredible friend.
You've always struck me as a very sensible person. You seem to be able, even under great stress and duress to make the wisest choice on how to move forward. And for me, who is still trying to learn how to think without emotions taking control, I see that as such a great virtue. If I ever needed some super big advice on how to manage through a minefield of overwhelming emotions, I would surely seek your help. (plus you're a nerdy girl, and that's hot all in itself).
You were a a wonderful bonus to dating your sister. Most guys I know have problems with their in-laws, and can easily pick and choose which ones they don't like and would rather not have. I thankfully do not have need for that. But you were the definitely the first in the family to fully accept me and to embrace me 100%. I know your sister has said she appreciated that a lot, but I don't know if I ever told you how much I appreciated it. You're a smart girl, who plays video games, loves to read, likes bad movies, and can cook, and you will make some guy VERY happy later on, I can tell you that right now. I'm very thankful for my new sister.
