If you're wondering how it feels like to date me, I would describe it.

On a rainy day at home, I would walk around with just a t-shirt and in my short shorts. Even though I'm cold, I would brave through it.

On a hot day outside, I would wear my sweaters and denim jackets. I wouldn't even roll my sleeves.

If we're together, I would hold on to your hand a lot. Pulling it to my lips to kiss it softly, or I'd rub your fingers, tracing out shapes on the back of your hand or making swirls on your palm with my finger.

Occasionally I would write you letters. Telling how much I adore you, thanking you for staying with me and helping me when I'm a mess. I would even write poems and songs based on you.

On good days I would send you pictures of me, with either one of these three types of captions. 1) "Oh look I feel cute today" 2) "Is this okay? I'm not sure if this suits me," or 3) I say nothing at all, just waiting for you to shower me with compliments. I'm a sucker for memes. Sometimes just one or two react pictures would make my day.

I love road trips with my favourite people. Especially if they get my humour and listen to the same music genre as I do. I adore being close to the beach, watching sunsets and sitting beneath the night skies.

I like long intellectual conversations. Tell me about constellations and Greek myths. I enjoy listening to legends and the origin of things. The history, art, culture and languages of other parts of the world. Tell me what you think of our society and how we could improve it.

Maybe it's narcissistic but occasionally I would ask you questions about myself. What is it about me that made you want to be mine? What was your first impression of me? Is it different than how you see me now? Am I someone that you've been wanting and waiting for your whole life? Or am I a creature that you never thought would exist?

I love listening to people's stories as well so tell me about yourself. What was it like growing up in your home? Are our parents similar in many ways? What did you want to be when you were five years old? What was your favourite food when you were in high school? What's your biggest fear?

Most of the time I appreciate silence. We don't need to talk all the time, especially in the morning. I get really quiet in the mornings because I usually get too anxious.

I get talkative between 11am and 5pm. I would crack jokes a lot and sing or rap to Twenty One Pilots. I'd even make random songs out of the blue.

After midnight I would pour my heart out completely, especially in text messages as I couldn't form the correct sentences verbally, my mind works too quickly. That's where my deepest fears and worries would explode and I'd spam you with my thoughts. I hope you're okay with that.
