I've been told I need to write lists.
"Write out what you want, write out your standards, write out the pros and cons."
So I suppose here, I'll do what they say, and make some lists.
I want someone who will understand me and not judge me.
I want someone who will want to receive random text messages throughout the day.
I want someone who will take care of me and someone I can take care of.
I want someone who I can come home to at the end of a long day, and I want us to be able to just be.
I want someone who will laugh at the way I talk to dogs, who will stay with me through it all, and who will always be honest with me even when it isn't pretty.
I want someone who I'm not scared to be myself with.
I want someone who will never hit me or abuse me in any sense of the word.
I want someone who respects life and humanity.
I want someone who will respect me and who I will respect.
Pros:
- the bar is on the floor, and I'm holding open the door
- all I want is some human interaction, for someone to show me a little compassion
- anyone who walks in could be the one I'm looking for
Cons:
- I feel so selfish for ever thinking I deserve any of this
- I've opened up my heart time and time again only to be hurt by every single person I've ever loved
- anyone who walks in could be the one I'm looking for
