man-tamer, indeed.

I'm not necessarily TRYING to capture the hearts of the men I encounter, but I must admit, I've been very successful at doing just that. I can't really put my finger on why I have such a high success rate right now. But as soon as I figure it out, I'll be sure to share the secret.

heartless.

And so she pretended she didn't care at all.

But in the end, she cared more than she ever had before.

and so she found herself with every boy
except for the one that she loved.

word to the wise.

if you're in love with a boy,
don't kiss his best friend.

"then ask me to stay."

Why must this whole love thing be so extremely complicated?

don't leave like this.

"I love you, I love everything about you...

but I don't know if we should be together."

Why is it that everytime I fall in love, I fall for a man who doesn't want to let himself fall back? The first time around I convinced myself that it was all his fault. But now as I'm enduring the heartbreak of yet another smothered love I'm beginning to believe that really the problem here is just me.

a keeper.

If he goes to the store to buy frozen pizzas for you when it's far past midnight, then he's a keeper.

If he cooks those pizzas and kills the spider in the sink for you when it's far past midnight, then he's a keeper.

If he willingly volunteers to clean up after the pizza eating that occurred far past midnight, then he's a keeper.

If you have to fight him away from the dishes, then he's a keeper.

If he hugs you from behind while you're doing the dishes just so he can kiss the crown of your head, then he's a keeper.

If he plays with your hands and kisses your fingers during a movie, then he's a keeper.

If he makes you laugh in every moment you spend with him, then he's a keeper.

And if you really really like him and he does all those other things,
then keep him.
