To Write Love On Her Arms.

"You make lists in your head about what you want in a lover, like brown hair and a sweet voice. A sharp mind and a soft heart, a sense of humor that actually makes you laugh like you mean it. This and that. And it's all bullshit. Because people aren't lists. And I've always wanted to be the person who made someone realize that. I want to come across someone with a list in their head that is nothing like the person I am, and I want to show them what they didn't even know they were looking for. People who think they know what they want are fooling themselves. Nobody really knows what or who they want. Not until it's right in front of them." -Marianna Paige

I admit. I, for one, am guilty of having an endless list of characteristics I want to find in a partner and frankly half of it makes no sense. People, like myself, make lists in our heads as if it matters. So certain we'd find someone who possessed all of that. And then one day, you meet someone beyond that. And they are nothing like your ridiculous list, or you. But you fall in love with them anyways. And these are the people I think is worth waiting for.
