someone once said, "what is the difference between i like you and i love you? the difference is when one likes a flower, they pluck it. when one loves a flower, they water it daily."
you, love, are a flower. a beautiful, unique flower. do not let someone pluck you from your soil because they 'like' you. only to watch you wither down beneath them, your petals falling one by one until they decide a lifeless stem isn't good enough and toss you away.
no, you are a strong, resilient flower. wait for the one who loves you. the one who will water and nourish you. the one whose end goal is to help you grow, to flourish in the life that you have and watch you become a strong individual.
don't kill yourself for someone who will toss you away.
give live to yourself with someone who will give you knowledge and strength.
"flower"
