I’m so in love with the idea of someone getting to know me.
I’m so eager to be appreciated.
I want my thoughts to be valued.
I’m starting to realize only I can give myself that.
Maybe that’s why I obsess and want to hear everything about your life.
How can I make it better?
How can I help you realize that I can bring value to your life?
I’m so selfish. All I over wanted was my own love.
