Reasons why you shouldn't love me
Would you love me if I'm gay, but you're the first girl I've ever kissed except that girl when I was 10 but she doesn't count, and I'm so scared of doing something wrong.
Would you love me if I'm probably asexual because it's rare that I wanna do it, and most of the time I just wanna cuddle.
Would you love me if I'd been broken and abused, so much so that I can't lie down in my own bed without being reminded of him, and I have to put little stars on the ceiling in order to sleep at night.
Would you love me if I sometimes got so depressed that talking is a struggle, and there's nothing you can do to make me feel better, so it just makes you feel shit too.
Would you love me if I can't hang out with your friends without almost panicking, meaning I have to leave to cry in the toilets every half an hour.
Would you love me if I was crazy and suicidal, because I have voices in my head telling me hurt myself and you, which are sometimes too hard to ignore.
Would you love me if I needed antidepressants just to feel normal, but can't have them because I'm too young and seem good enough to be okay when talking to the people who can prescribe them.
Would you love me if I can't deal with your issues, because I can barely deal with mine half the time so you'd be lucky to get the support you desperately want.
Would you love me if I constantly doubted our relationship, and don't actually think we'll make it because my head is constantly telling me we won't.
Would you love me if sometimes I have to be alone, away from you, because socialising is too much, even socialising with you.
Would you love me if I lived far away, so we saw each other less than once a week, and when we do it's only for a few hours.
Would you love me if I didn't want to spend the night, because every time I have it's gone badly and I'm scared we'll both have meltdowns and I'll just want to go home.
Would you love me if I didn't validate you like you want me to, because I never seem to be able to say what you want and it's too much for me to deal with, and when I do say something it's not enough.
Would you love me if I couldn't make you laugh, and your mum was worried about our relationship because you hadn't laughed properly in weeks, but one day with Meg and you're feeling amazing.
Would you love me if I became so ill that I didn't want you to, and you loving me would be you leaving me alone.
Do you wish you'd known this all before we met? So you could run away while you still had the chance. Because it's been a year now and all these things are true and you still love me and I don't know why.
