TO THE ONE WHO LOVES ME NEXT

To the one who loves me next, I want to tell you frankly that I am impulsive. I can be easily carried away by my own emotions. I easily lose my sense of proportion when I am absolutely mad and livid. I say words that I don’t really mean in the heat of the moment and I do regret it later. But I know when to swallow my pride and ask for apologies. I may be impulsive but I don’t like the idea of losing someone. Believe me, this is something that I have been trying to control but sometimes, some things get really out of my hand.

To the one who loves me next, I want to tell you that I overthink a lot. I create problems that don’t really exist. I always worry about my future and stress myself thinking about it. I always anticipate things and get easily paranoid. I’m a very anxious person and sometimes hard to deal with. So if you think that I am too hard to handle, I won’t blame you because there are times that really I don’t understand myself too.

To the one who loves me next, I love talking about books, literature, life, photography, movies, travels, arts, and Taylor Swift. I know you find these things tedious. But I won’t push you to love what I love. We are completely different people, it’s just that, fate agreed to collide our path. I would also love to try the things that you are wildly passionate about. I’ll celebrate with you on your biggest and tiniest victories. I will never force you to try the things that you don’t want just because I liked them. Instead, I’ll encourage you to follow your desires. Love is about supporting and respecting each other anyway.

To the one who loves me next, I despise the taste of coffee. I may love the smell of it but no, I won’t bother drinking it. But I love the idea of making coffees for you every morning before you go to work. It doesn’t matter if it’s the first thing that you will order during our dates. I also love the pineapples on pizza. It’s my guilty pleasure.

To the one who loves me next, I love taking pictures for keepsakes. I am the type of person who takes selfies a lot. So, don’t be shocked if I’ll ask you to take pictures with me.

To the one who loves me next, I appreciate small things. If you gave me something, I might cry. Yes, I’m such a crybaby. I say sorry a lot even though I’ve done nothing wrong to offend you.

To the one who loves me next, I have these insecurities and I always degrade myself. I am hoping you’ll be there to save me from the clouds of sadness and negativity.

To the one who loves me next, we’ll see each other at the right time, when we are both 100% ready to commit and ready to fall in love. We surely don’t wanna destroy what we built because we’re in a rush. I cannot wait to call you mine and call me yours. But for now, let’s enjoy life while we can because I guarantee you, everything will instantly change the moment that we meet.

Still, I’m looking forward to meeting you.

Be safe.

Sincerely,
to the one who’ll love YOU next.
