Why don't we lay in bed together and listen to the rain on a cold stormy day... You can run your fingers through my hair while we snuggle, and maybe later we could just spend some time kissing... We'll have scented candles set nearby and maybe some of Hozier's music will be playing in the background... It'll be like one of those days that are perfectly cozy, with a sense of delicate intimacy lingering in the air...

I want a coffee shop romance. The kind of thing that's literally out of an alternate universe fan fiction. Like handsome stranger meets an aspiring artist at a local cafe in a foreign country. The magical love story that ends with a devastatingly beautiful heartbreak. Yeah, that's exactly what I want. I'm completely serious about this.

Not me listening to Love Story (Taylor's Version) and tearing up because I'm a touch starved romantic in desperate need for affection. No, absolutely not.

I want to be the woman who is compassionate, soft spoken, and elegant, while still being the woman who is intelligent, assertive, and doesn't tolerate anyone's bullshit.

Listen, I deserve to be cuddling with someone while they play with my hair. No one can convince me otherwise.

Anyone else go through being the "well behaved child" when they were young and now as they've gotten older realize they have no personality and their entire life has just been an attempt at pleasing others?!?
