Ah, love. It's such a fragile and precious thing to have. For me, I was 16 and had never fallen in love. I wondered why everyone else around me did. I felt left out.
"You never want to date anyone at school." My best friend, Emily said.
"Mhm." I said as I was rolling my eyes.
"You should totally download MeetMe, You can meet plenty of people around here. I met my boyfriend on there and he is the best!" Emily said with a smile.
At the time, I was clueless and careless. I downloaded it as soon as I got home, made an account and scrolled through, what seemed like, endless profiles. But then...
You (His real name will come up later.) popped up and said "Hello beautiful, was wondering about you." With a cute emoji: 😇
I was beyond happy. I was actually freaking out because I had no interest in anyone, but you. I looked at your profile for hours, it seems, to see if this was real. I was also very scared to reply. I made up so many replies and didn't hit send, for example...
"Hey handsome, you can find out more anytime. 😉"
"Hi. You're cute. 😊"
I had no idea how to flirt.
My fingers were going frantically and before you know it, I typed...
"Hi."
THAT'S IT!? What was my mind doing?
"Would you like to tell me about you?"
I had no idea who I was or what I was even DOING. One thing led to another and we were texting until 3 in the morning, on a school night. I never even noticed it was that late. I loved talking to you.
You told me your age. I was 16 and you were 20. I didn't really care then, but now that I look back, I really should of cared.
While laying in bed, I kept thinking "J & J = ❤️" I fell in love from the start. I know people say "You can't fall in love from the moment you meet!" But I did. Hard. What a dumb move, you played me well.
