What I Once Called Love: The Drafts

Notes In Case You Exist

Please note that I am resilient. 

It takes A LOT for me to go into a full-fledge mental collapse. 

But I doubt you're looking for a bulletproof wife.

Please note that I am independent.

I can operate entirely on my own and do not require the opinions of others at all.

But I don't think you'd want someone who doesn't need you.

Please note that I am intelligent.

I can strategize my way out of a conflict while simultaneously analyzing the results.

But I am not sure you are in need of crisis management.

Please note that I am very good at reading people.

I can spend five minutes with a person before I can quote you their life history based on body language alone.

But I don't think you need a people interpreter.

Maybe you're just looking for someone to hold your hand on stormy nights.

Or a friend who's got your back in good times and bad.

Or a girl you can take home for Thanksgiving with your family.

Or even just someone to grow old with.

Maybe my resumé will be what initially attracts you.

Or maybe you'll just want me.
