If...

If you are going to fall in love with me, it's only fair that you know who and what you are falling in love with.

You are falling in love with my insecurities, and my obsession with trying to figure out what everyone thinks of me- or if anyone even thinks anything of me at all. You are falling in love with my inmaturity, with my constant need to feel loved and appreciated, my overactive tear ducts, my internet obsession, my tendency to be clingy. You are falling in love with my troubled past, and my hopes and dreams, and how I am a hopeless romantic at heart. If you fall in love with me, you fall in love with my self-hate and my imperfections and my perception that nobody could ever love me.

But, you are also falling in love with the way my eyes smile whenever I'm with you, the way I will text you in the morning even if we spent the whole night and even slept together just to say that I hope you have a great day. You are falling in love with how I would do anything and everything to make you smile and laugh. You are falling in love with the occasionally humorous or thought-provoking things that I say, and the way I blush when people ask me about you.

But above all, the most important thing is that you are falling in love with me despite my thinking that it is impossible.

❤️
