Opia: The Intensity of Looking Someone In The Eye

Have you ever been in love? What does it even feel like? I wouldn’t know because I’ve never been. I could only imagine though. Your stomach tightens when you’re around them, you feel sick unless you’re with them, and you’re constantly wondering if you’re on their mind. I only hope that one day I find a love like that. Waking up on a Sunday morning and rolling over in bed to find that one person who makes you smiler wider than anyone. White sheets and cold feet. Coffee in the air. People in love are lucky because those of us who don't have the connection with someone will always wonder if and when we'll get it. Some people, not including myself, feel as if they are not whole without another to share their life with. Sad, right? It's true. Many people are so insecure with themselves that they feel the need to constantly be with someone who makes them forget all about themselves. I hope that when I meet someone who I want to spend the rest of my life with, they make me want to be myself. If you cannot be yourself around the one you love, then do you really love them? You should want to tell this person everything and anything. I know that when this person comes into my life, I'm going to tell them the stupidest and most unimportant details to my day. For example, he says "how was your day?" I'd say "well for breakfast I had (insert sugary breakfast cereal here) and then I drove to work and OMG this song came on the radio and I sang it until my lungs burned and then this..." and I could go on. And even though that may sound annoying or completely boring to you, he better find every single word I said interesting or he doesn't love me. Not because he needs to be so interested in my boring, daily routine but because he loves watching me talk and get lost in my words. That's the kind of relationship I want. I don't know about you...
