tell me what your story is

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep… wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you’re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you…. The one who turns to his friends and says, ‘that’s her.’
“For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.

“I don’t pretend to know what love is  for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all  about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other  person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about  yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling  comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when  they walk into a room and smile at you.”
