I want him to say this:

 

"I'm in love with you, okay?

if you're looking for the word that means caring for someone beyond all rationality

and wanting them to have everything they want no matter how much it destroys you,

it's love.

And when you love someone, you just

you don't stop.

Ever.

Even when people roll their eyes, or say it would never work,

even then.

Especially then.

You just...

you don't give up because if I could give up,

if I could just, you know, take the whole world's advice and move on and find someone else,

that wouldn't be love.

That would be...

that would be some other, disposable thing.

That is not worth fighting for.

Why do nice people choose the worst people for them?"

                        "ask me that again."

"Why don't you see he doesn't deserve you?"

                        "people accept the love they think they deserve."

"True love is not real unless it is returned, huh?

and I know you're only a teenage white girl with no problems worth complaining about,

but you

have feelings.

Your feelings are valid."

                       "i do not believe in love."

"If we stop believing in love,

why would we want to live?"

 

If you love someone, please tell them.

even if you're scared that it's not the right thing.

Even if you're scared that it will cause problems.

You say it,

and you say it loud.

I say, fall head over heels for them.

Someone you'll miss when they aren't around,

someone you think about when they aren't around,

who you catch yourself looking at in class or texting at night about stupid things.

Someone who won't make you hate yourself.

Someone who will make you smile.

God, it's been a while.
