Dear younger self,

When someone says they just want to be friends and nothing more, listen to them. Don’t try to force their hand into liking you because it won’t turn out well. No one wants someone to be with them for the wrong reasons. If someone truly likes you, they won’t just say it, they’ll show it on their own in little (and big!) things that they do like hold the door for you, kiss your forehead when you’re cuddling and watch that one stupid movie that you love so much.

If none of your friends like them and I mean none of them, then maybe you should take a step back and look at why that might be. Trust me, it’ll save you a lot of headaches. If none of your friends AND family like them, there is something seriously wrong. They’ll wind up hurting you in the long run one way or another.

But most of all, cherish what you have now, work hard for what you want in the future, always speak the truth and listen intently to what’s being said to you. Don’t over think, don’t care too little, love with all your heart, and always, always bring an extra pair of comfortable shoes when you’re out in heels.
