Intimacy is not just about sex. It's having heart-to-hearts, staying up all night talking, sharing childhood memories, thoughts, fears, dreams & hopes for the future. It's uncontrollable laughter, direct eye contact and feeling each other without touching - it's exchanging energy

for the first time, someone had asked me out. it was you. the object of my limerence.
and yet i refused. why? because i got scared. as happy as i was, the excitement is my fiction. the fear, my reality.
what if you're playing with my heart? you write about love so beautifully, that i fell for the man in your words. but why is it that the man in front of me seems too smooth, too flirty, too impersonal to truly like me? how is it that you're not at all nervous, how is it that you overlook things i say, how is it that i do not have a little home in your mind?
perhaps, you do not like me enough to show me the man that lives through your writing. but i was foolish enough to build a home in my mind for him to reside in.
someday, i hope. if it is meant to be, i hope i'm wrong. i hope you give me a home in your heart, so i can find the safety to let you reside in mine.

My childhood trauma didn't make me stronger. it made me a people pleaser. it made me forgive way too much. it made me not speak when i'm supposed to. it made me an extreme empath.

It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.
