To love is to trust. But to love unconditionally is to bare your heart and soul. It is to be real and vulnerable, completely and utterly vulnerable. It is to believe that they won't runaway from your demons but accept them and love them just as a part of you. It can be scary but relieving too, to not have to hide your true self. And lastly, it is to accept them for who they are as well.
Can someone ever love me truly? In the unhinged way that I've only come across in romance novels, more specifically in dark romance novels? Does love like that exist in real life? Or is it just wishful thinking? I want to experience that kind of love once in my lifetime. To have someone so utterly devoted to me, more attuned to my feelings and state of being than I am. Though I wonder, will I ever be so lucky as to find a partner like that. I would not need my partner to declare their love for me to the entire world, but the small acts such as taking care of my needs and understanding when to act as my anchor go a long way.
