So... Ok...
I wrote this a while ago and thought I would share. It's a letter I wrote after reading Open Letter From a Love Slut and thought it was a great idea.
If you're reading this you might just be too curious. Or maybe have a romantic interest in me. For whatever reason, I thought I should write it out. Most of the time I start ranting and things get lost in the rambling words, so this way it’s better for both of us.
There are things I want you to understand about me, about who I’ve come to realize I am. Things you might not like and should know from the start.
If you push me too hard I’ll slide away, I react badly to harassing and badgering, it gets on my nerves. So if you decide you want me for yourself then act on it, but if I ask for space don’t follow me around or text me over and over again the same question. If you do it more than once it’ll end in a plain out “NO!” and you won’t like my tone. If you can’t take no for an answer you won’t see me again, that’s stalking and nobody likes stalkers. I’m an army brat, I have issues with authority.
If you think you love me say it, say it more than once. Say it like you mean it, don’t just say it out loud and think of laundry or TV, that’s disrespectful to the phrase. Never hold back a heartfelt “I love you”, it never wears old.
I’m not a morning person, and I can promise you’ll get hissed at and glared at if you approach me before my coffee. This is not something that will change; I’ve been like this since I was a child, so please take it into consideration if you have certain affection for your limbs or if you bruise easily. This does not by any means mean I don’t love you.
I enjoy to have heated discussions about everything from books, to music videos, to recent news, so if you don’t read, watch the news or keep up with the everyday things people should know culturally you are considered boring and not my type. Please restrain yourself from asking me out or I’ll quote Max Ernst.
I can’t stand cheaters or liars. They’re the worse kind of scum in my book. I won’t lie to you. Ever. If you can’t stand to hear the truth or can’t come to terms with it, walk away now. Same goes if you can’t say the truth to save your life. Oh, and concealment of facts is included. Hiding stuff IS lying, no matter what your guy friends say about it.
I don’t need to come first. Your job, your mother, your dog even, can come first, but not after you’d made a commitment with me. If we have a date, be on time. If you say you’ll be there at 8, I’ll wait a bit, and then leave if you haven’t showed up. Relationships are like business, you have to respect agreements or they’ll backfire, keep that in mind.
I like to dance around in my pajamas, drink coffee like a maniac and smoke like there’s no tomorrow. I have an annoying dog, a fascination with Justin Timberlake and love to knit. I live at night mostly, unless it’s absolutely necessary to see daylight. I’ve always been like this. I don’t mix business with pleasure and I don’t spend hours looking for an outfit. I almost never wear skirts or dresses and I like working on old cars. I also have a tendency to make up stories about being a WW2 pilot.
If you aren’t too freaked out by now maybe you have what it takes. None of the points above are to be discussed. It is what it is, I am what I am and that’s final.
What would yours say?
