So this is the mirror world to Love The Way We Bitch, OK? People have been asking for this for years now, ever since Love The Way We Bitch became the biggest thing in the Halifax Blogosphere. After an unending river of spleen, spew and filth, here’s your chance to engender a little good karma. Does your bus driver make you smile in the morning with his jaunty greeting? Did the band you saw Saturday night play your favourite song? Did the harbour smell particularly sweet the other day? Say so, here, and let the love take hold in Halifax. Be effusive, be creative, and the best of your love will find its way into the paper.

Where do I go to submit something? I can’t find anything besides the “Submit a Bitch” area and since this is not a bitch, I’ll just post it here and hope it gets to the right place:
My boyfriend recently broke up with me, which left me pretty heartbroken. The day after it happened, I was in the cafeteria at my school and while telling my friend about what happened I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore, and broke down. A guy I didn’t know saw me crying, and out of the blue, he was standing over me holding a rose folded from a napkin. He told me that no matter what happened to me, it isn’t worth getting so upset over, and that no matter what happens in life, we just have to let things roll off our backs. He gave me the rose and went back to his seat a few tables away. Well, I can’t tell you how much better he made me feel, and when my friend saw what he did she said it restored her faith in humanity. I still have my rose, and plan on keeping it to remind myself that there are really kind people in the world. Thanks stranger, I hope to meet you again!

It’s to the right of the “latest love” in the blue menu bar up top there, where it says simply “Love the way we love”. Yes, it’s confusing. It should say “submit a love” or some such. I’ll alert someone to it.
I Love that the Loves get zero comments.
