i miss that feeling you get when someone finally has the audacity to confess their attraction towards you and every word spoken only causes the butterflies in your stomach to soar because you've been waiting for that moment since the day you felt something for this person. now you no longer have to worry about whether or not they feel the same, or worry about getting your hopes up or your heartbreaking when you see they're interested in someone who's not you. you get so happy to the point where you want to do nothing but show this person off, thinking, "this individual is finally mine." you finally get to kiss them whenever you want, hug them whenever you want, hold their hand without hesitation, go on dates, stay up until four a.m. as you talk about nothing but life and your feelings. this kind of stuff, i think, is a beautiful thing; to watch something blossom like that and feel your happiness only continue to grow, i miss it. but, now i'm sleeping alone and there's nothing i can do about it.
