the need to be loved
Pick her up and pretend you're going to throw her in the pool. she'll scream and fight you but secretly, she'll love it. Hold her hand while you talk. Hold her hand while you drive. Just hold her hand. Look her in the eyes when you talk to her. Tell her she looks pretty. Call her. Protect her. Tell her stupid jokes. Tickle her, even if she says stop. Hold her until she gets uncomfortable. Slow dance with her. Tell her she's funny. And weird. And silly. Let her fall asleep in your arms. Get her mad, then kiss her. Tease her. Let her tease you back. Stay up with her when shes sick. Kiss her forehead. Introduce her to your friends as "that girl you talk about ALL the time." Kiss her in the rain. And when you fall in love with her, tell her. Never hold anything back from her. This is how to love a girl.
