Dear future me
Hey we did it. We finally had the confidence to face a fear (well I mean hoping because this is written to a future me and I can’t predict the future). This is the fear of loving someone else,after the shitshow which was past loves. Now, I have some advice for you. DONT **** IT UP THIS TIME!!!
1. Don’t talk about past loves
2. Stop ******* apologising all the time for been cheesy or worrying you epically fail at being sweet
3. Try hold yourself together and don’t let nerves get the better of you when you want to ask if you can hold their hand
4. If you talk about politics, don’t go on a massive rant about how capitalism needs to be destroyed and end up looking like a massive left-wing revolutionary wannabe
5. If they feel like they need space, let them have it without constantly asking “have I done something wrong?” Or blaming myself for it and once again constantly apologising because not everything in their lives is to do with you
6. Comfort them when they need it and prove you will be there for them without butting into problems they don’t want you to get involved in.
7. If they make mistakes don’t cry and scream at them to stop as they will blame themselves for hurting you andwant to push the blade further into their scars
8. And if it doesn’t work, dont drink to hide the pain. Embrace it and accept they werent the one.
I don’t know when you are reading this as like I said earlier I can’t tell the future but honestly please listen. You may look back on your youth as the mostly-immature guy you were. But you were 21 when you wrote this letter and at that age you had already gone through so much loss and pain. You were full of life experiences when you had only just become an adult. Look back and learn from you mistakes.
I AM YOU
