Shh..

Can I confide in you a secret? Well, I suppose it’s not a secret that I am a human being with human feelings, but I hear that some of the qualities are a little different than average.
I want to fall in love. Eventually, that is. But first I want someone to fall helplessly, desperately, madly, painfully in love with me. I want to know that am what makes someone get up in the morning. I want to be disgusted with the amount of attention that someone tries to pay me. I want someone to love me more than I love myself.
Does that make me selfish? I have always assumed that it did. I have had people whose opinions I don’t respect tell me that this thinking is most definitely selfish. But if this is the one thing I am selfish about it, I will be perfectly fine.
I do want to fall in love, eventually. But I just don’t think I am in an acceptable place to make that leap.
So keep my secret, just a little longer.
