I’ve got a 25-step plan to make you fall in love with me.
You’ll deny that it’ll ever happen but that’s only part of step 3.
Don’t worry, by the time we get to step 42 you’ll be so enamored with me that you’ll wonder why you never thought of ‘us’ before.
Did I say 42?
Oh whoops, I guess there’s more steps to this than I thought.
How many you ask?
However many steps it takes you to fall in love with me.
25,
42,
157.
I’ve got time.
And we’ve got a long friendship ahead of us for me to keep dropping not so subtle hints of how incredible I think we’d be together because let’s face it.
We would be.
I don’t care if it takes 4 years,
3,126 steps in this absolutely ridiculous plan for you to realize it.
If you haven’t noticed by now, I’m persistent and I don’t tend to give up.
So, do you want to go out sometime?
On a date?
With me?
No?
That’s cool, we’re only on step 4, and I’ve got time.
