Don't date an overthinker
Don't date an overthinker. The color of your eyes and the way your lips curve when you smile. They'll spend days analyzing the simple "good night" text you sent the night before. do they like me? because they wrote the words out and didn't abbreviate it. or are they annoyed with me because the first letter of "good" wasn't capitalized. They'll stare into the abyss for hours because you didn't say hello when you woke up. Wondering if what you have is reciprocated or not. Asking their friends if they see any signs that maybe he doesn't love you anymore. They'll cry at the way you looked at that one person, or the way you paid for the Starbucks drink this morning, or the way your eyes stop lighting up at the mention of their very own name. They'll cry when you start kissing them like it's a job, and touching them likes it's a bad habit your trying to get rid of. They'll even overthink about overthinking. that maybe you do still love them, and all of their worries are just dumb. And so when you do leave, they'll sit up at night replaying memories you had like a jukebox saying "what happened?" "where did I go wrong?" "it's all my fault." Do not date an overthinker. not unless you plan to love them for a life.
