Knowing me 101

Here's some things I think are important to know about me.

I don't mean to, but I giggle when I'm nervous or put on the spot. Even if the situation is serious.

I get buttsore if I see others taking care of people in ways that I'm not able to.

But it's only because I turned out to be such a people pleaser.

I just want to be the one providing for everyone around me.

Much like the moon, I tend to make light in the dark.

I'm emotional and I'm one hell of a crybaby.

I will cry at the same exact movie scene over and over as if I never saw it coming.

I like to think that I'm good at hiding my true emotions or that I've fooled people when it comes to how I feel.

But I'm not a good liar so I never have been able to not show my emotions.

I was born with the curse of wearing my soft, sappy heart on my sleeve.

Oh, and I'm a lover, definitely not a fighter.

I'm extremely gullible and I'll give someone 467 "second chances."

I'm usually an all-in kind of person.

If my heart is set on something, I'll lose everything good before I even consider changing my mind.

I won't dictate your life and tell you what you can and cannot do or who you can and cannot talk to because it's not my place.

 

However, I am a double edged blade.

So as great as I may seem, don't fall in love with me.

Because when I get hurt that others can provide for you what I can't, I'll get distant.

And because I'm such a people pleaser, I will give you everything I have until I'm completely drained. 

But when I'm drained, I'm much like the moon.

I'll disappear into the darkness for a while and go into hiding.

And I said that I'm emotional and that I'm a crybaby.

So I'm likely to cry if I notice even a slight change in the tone of your voice.

I wear my soft, sappy heart on my sleeve, so my heart is easy to break.

Because of this, I push people away when I'm scared.

Like I said, I'm gullible and I will give someone 467 second chances.

But after I give my last second chance, I'll treat you the same way I'd treat a stranger.

I won't dictate your life, but it doesn't mean that things won't eat at me.

I'm a walking contradiction and loving me is hard.

So if you manage to fall in love with me, you shouldn't.

 

But again, I'm an all-in kind of person.

So if I'm in love with you, I'm throwing in all my chips.

I said I'm a lover, not a fighter.

So I will not fight you to stay in my life.

But I will love you with all of me for as long as you'll allow me to.

And if you let me get close to you, I'll be infatuated with your smile.

I'll be lured by the soft laugh that occurs when you say something you think is funny.

Captivated by the face you make when you're confused because it's just so cute.

Enraptured by the look in your eyes when I know you're jealous.

And I want to love all of you, not just the good parts.

Because I know that you too, are a walking contradiction.

But if you end up falling in love with me, don't.
