So I got this idea tonight.. I don't have the nerve to tell you how I feel. So I'm just going to write my thoughts down in a diary online. Where everyone can see. I'm not afraid to admit to the world that I love you, I'm just afraid to admit it to you.
You make me feel special. I've been in love with you for a while but I think you just think of me as a toy. Well this diary will show you that I actually have feelings. Maybe someday I can show you this. Until then, I'll just write. And write. And write.
And thank you to anyone who's reading this. I'm just a whiny, obsessive teenage girl that can't get over a guy. And to anyone who thinks that I don't know what love is, I'm too young, blah, blah, blah. I'm positive I'm in love. I've never felt this way about anyone. This guy makes me feel confident and special. I'm totally comfortable around him. I can talk to him all day and not get tired of him. When he plays his stupid games with me, I can really feel my heart breaking. Right now, as I'm writing this, there's a pain in my chest. It hurts so bad when I see him with another girl. I don't go a day or even an hour without thinking of him. And it's been almost a year since he first broke my heart. I've tried to get over him, it's impossible.
So if you really want to read this, please do. If you are just going to hate on me for having these feelings, please go away. I really just want to write. It's one of the things that gets me through the day. ♥
