Most girls want the kind of love that gives them butterflies. The kind of love you don't see every day or that hopeless romantic-type of love you see in movies like Ally and Noah from "The Notebook." But I want the kind of love that makes me wonder what they're doing for the rest of their life. The kind of love that makes you want to roll all the windows down in the middle of a summer night so the crickets can hear your favorite song. A love that doesn't disappear, escape or dissolve.
I want the kind of love that makes years of being single and meeting all the wrong people seem like a blessing, because you now realize it was the calm before a beautiful storm this whole time. The kind of love that makes you realize that all the bad dates you went on in college were preparing you for this.
I want the kind of love that makes you crave more: the kind of love where you can't get enough. It's your addiction and you're never going sober. The feeling of acceptance and encouragement with every smile and wink kind of love. And you know that this love isn't going anywhere for a long time. Once in a lifetime, accidental and pure bliss. Love so good it hurts. No questioning what's next because you know you'll be doing it together. Like a fire that's still smoking in the morning, ready to start up again. Hot to the touch even though it was put out hours ago.
I want to feel like I'm where I belong, like they've been waiting for me just as long as I've been waiting for them. I want something real and true.
Like your favorite ice cream melting on a hot day, too good to not keep up with, not a worry in the world about your clothes being covered in its melted goodness, because it's all worth it in the end. The only lies told in this kind of love is in the planning of a surprise, and the only competition is who loves each other more. No he said she said drama from the past in sight, just being with each other.
I want the kind of love that every song makes you think about, and you wonder how you never related to it before. I want a love that's not going to end or hurt me; one different from the rest.
I'm not asking to be spoiled or constantly go on expensive dates, that's not what this is about. I'm not looking for someone to buy me everything I need or bring me where ever I want to go. I just want someone to share all the good times with who wants to be with me as much as I want to be with them.
The kind of love that makes me wonder where this person has been all my life, the kind of love that makes all the pain of the past worth it. That's the kind of love I want.
