Dating an over thinker.
First, he will spend days analyzing your facial expressions when you speak,
and nights deciphering what the period placement in your text message meant.
He will agonize for hours over why you didnt say hello to him at breakfast,
and start to create unrealistic scenarios in his head that you decided you no longer liked him.
And he will suffocate you with his care.
He'll always want to ask you if youre okay
and constantly say that he loves you, just to hear you say it back to him.
And he'll cry, oh lord, will he cry.
He will cry over the way he thinks you looked at that guy,
or the way he thinks your eyes don't light up at his name like they used to.
He will cry when you start kissing him like its your job
and touching him like its a bad habit.
He will even overthink the fact that maybe he's just overthinking.
That you do still love him.
That all these worries might actually just be in his head and that he's just overthinking.
And if you do leave,
he will still wake up nights six months from now
replaying the memories over and over in his head like a jukebox saying "where did i go wrong?"
or "what did i do this time?"
Dating an over thinker isn't easy.
But you will never find anyone else who loves you as much,
Or cares about you as much,
Or believes in you as much as they will.
