Crazy Little Thing Called Like

As I grow older I find myself reminicing of and wishing for the days of old. I miss my high school friends, I miss being the smartest kid in class in junior high...

But one thing that I have noticed over the years, relationships were so much easier in elementary school.

Those were the good old days when if you liked a girl in your class, all you had to do was pass her a little note that said "I like you, do you like me?" Then have the little check boxes for yes and no.

It was so easy, there was no maybe. There was no "I like you but..." There was no "I just got out of a long relationship and am just enjoying being single." There was just yes or no.

You never had to wait for an answer either... I knew a guy who was basically strung along for a month before the girl finally said yes.

Another way it was easier, you didn't need to come up with reasons for why you like someone. You didn't have to tell them how you thought they were smart, funny, pretty, etc... you just liked them and they may or may not like you...

So I am saying this now, I want to bring back the yes or no question. Who's with me?

My Heart is an Open Book

My heart is an open book... At times I wish I could be a little more reserved. I wish I didn't wear my heart on my sleeve.

But I can't change the person that I am. Well, I could if I wanted to... but I won't.

I am strong willed, I am confident, I am educated, I am loyal... the only fault I see is that I tend to fall fast and hard for women.

This has been a good thing and a bad thing. It is a good thing because when I do have a woman, I can love her deeply and purely. But it is a bad thing because I am always setting myself up to be hurt.

My heart is an open book... but it seems to be missing a few pages.

Have you ever loved someone, and they didn't love you in the same way? It is called unrequited love and it is one of the worst feelings in the world.

It would be so much better to just shut off those feelings, to flip a switch and let it all fade away.

I wish it was that simple, but its not.

I can't change... I won't change

My heart is an open book... please don't tear out anymore pages.
