“I didn't want someone who would have to force himself to love me or for me to pretend that I loved him back. I had always hoped that love would be mutually instinctual and natural- as easy as breathing”
“I loved him. It was a painful realization - so painful that it took my breath away - discovering that I was totally in love with this man who would never love me back.”
“I still loved him. I never stopped loving him, and never stopped hoping that he would fall back in love with me as well.”
“I wanted someone to love who would stay: stay and be there, always.”
“I didn't want to see you.""They told me.""I was afraid that I'd still love you.""I hoped that you would.”
“I wish I had a someone who would observe me silently, who would capture all my habits and quirks, and still love me. Someone that would get lost in how my fine features define my face, while smiling or crying, and still love me.”
