Love

wHAT IS LOVE BABY DON'T HURT ME DON'T HURT ME NO MORE

Everything I read on this website

Revolves around love

People writing about their girlfriend

Boyfriend

Or partner

Most if not all of the people I know

Have been in or are in a relationship

I joke about never having had a relationship

And they all say the same things

"You'll find someone"

"You just haven't met someone yet"

"Trust me, you're great!"

They're wrong

And no I'm not just being a snob

"Ohhhhhhh I'm so sad cause no one will date me"

I'm not saying that

I genuinely don't see the good parts of me

I see a stomach

I see an ugly face

I hear my annoying jokes

My loud voice

How obnoxious I am

I see how a bother people

I wish they would tell me that

I see my bad grades

I know I'm an idiot

I need people to dumb down everything they say

But why people talk to me

Is beyond me

I couldn't figure out why to save my life

I don't like saying my own name

Because I know who I'm talking about

I know when I say my name

I mean me

That's typically how that works

I don't like to say me, mine my, or I

Because it implies this person

Who I wish I wasn't sometimes

Author's Note

yeah okay

nOW LISTEN UP HERE M**********R. This profile photo- is of me in your washing machine. Me, stuck in the washing machine of YOUR basement at some ungodly hour- and I never thought twice about it. The stupid s**t I have done and will always do because you are my best friend is positively limitless. You see bad grades and stupidity, I see A) a whole mood and B) someone who's tired and preoccupied. Preoccupied because I've learned that you spend so much time constantly giving your everything to other people. The way you love people shows up to me as spending as much time with them as you can, staying with them, making sure they're okay, hugging people in the halls, and constantly helping other people. And I get it. I do the same thing, though I can't even imagine performing to the same extent you do every day. And THAT is the kind of love that people have for you. Me, Lisa, Hazel, Jazzy, Bella, Ashley, Legit Everyone On Crew Except Maybe Carley But That's Not Your Fault- I know for a fact, a guaranteed fact- even when you can't possibly try your hardest, even when your insecurities outnumber your hopes, which is inevitable, these people- and so many more- all love you unconditionally. Would spill their heart out to you. You know that every time I say "Love you too, best friend" I do mean it. It may not be romantic, but JEEZUM FRICKIN CROW you are so, so, so loved. People like us stay with you because you're just that incredible, and vivacious, and understanding. You are the kind of best friend everybody should have.
Also your annoying jokes are a few of my favorite things. Need I re-print out the "Crispy Beans" document?

Love you, best friend!
