When you love someone.
When you love someone, you love them in every way.
You love their insecurities. You love their imperfections. You love the way they walk, they laugh, they stare at you. You think of them the time you close your eyes at night and every time you wake up in the morning.

When you love someone, you get mad at them. You get hurt. You hurt them as well. You put scars on them, and if you love them so much you try to heal those scars. You try to make them feel better. You make them feel more loved.

When you love someone, you dont just give up on them. It gets harder each day. But then you love them and no matter how hard it is, you stay because it is still harder without them. So you try to fix everything.

When you love someone, you wonder whether they have eaten, they went home safely, whether they are feeling alright or bad. When you love someone you want them to be always in good condition.

When you love someone, you want them to stay with you forever.

When you love someone, you wipe away their tears, you hold them as long as they wanna be held.

When you love someone you just dont let them go away.
You dont let them feel like they are nothing.
When you love someone you make them feel your love.

When you love someone…

You love them as they are, not for who you want them to be. If what they’re doing isn’t hurting you, you accept it. You don’t try to change them because it’s what you don’t agree with.

You understand that they’re an individual with their own needs and feelings. Just because they might be spending time with others or with you less, it doesn’t mean they don’t love you. You give them space when they wish for it. You allow them to have time away from you and their privacy. You allow them to have a life outside of you. 

You help them when they’re suffering, but you do what’s best for them, not what’s best for you or what you think is best for them. And when you help them, you expect nothing in return. 

You feel happy for their accomplishments, you don’t try to upstage them or feel resentful of their successes. In whatever they’re doing, you support them, not sabotage them. 

If you hurt them, you take responsibility for it. You apologize for your actions, you talk it out with that person, you make sure it doesn’t happen again. You encourage healthy dialogue to make the relationship better instead of sulk or be passive aggressive. 

If the person you love doesn’t want to do something that you want to, understand and respect their wishes, don’t try to force them into going by what you want. 

If you love someone, you set them free. If they come back to you, they’re yours. If they don’t, they realized you loved them like a possession, not as a person.
