on vday, appropriately.

instructions for whoever loves me next.

some of this, i didn't even know or notice about myself.

The List. (In no order)
She occasionally frowns while eating.
She loves chicken, especially chicken wings and chicken pita
variations.
She likes having her hand held.
She may call often to tell you about her day. Some call them petty
problems. Just listen.
Her taste in music is special. If you understand the music, you will
understand her.
She likes hugs. Give them often.
She only kisses in one or two ways.
She likes Almodovar movies and Tori Amos.
She likes "jazz", but really she just wants some kind of music that
allows her to be in peace.
She loves shopping. Especially vintage and thrift shopping. She loves
shoes.
She occasionally drools, snores, or farts in her sleep. Do not act
like you notice.
She probably likes walks in parks and random parts of the city.
After long walks, her feet get tired, and she often falls asleep.
Don't act like you notice.
When she gets ready to leave the house, it takes her at least 30
minutes to 1.5 hours to put make up on, try on shoes and various
clothes. Be patient. You may find it cute and fall in love with her
that way. Again.
She calls Subway (the sandwich store) 'Subway's'. Just act like its
always been called that.
We all love too late/too early. With that understanding in mind, try
loving now. Trust me love will kick in.
She likes karoake and dancing. You may see her get lost in her own
world. Don't feel ignored. Just enjoy it.
She may at times act like she knows everything, and then admit to you
that she was wrong by laughing or touching you. Just laugh it off.
She laughs with a snort occasionally. Just realize she doesn't do this
for everyone.
She writes. Poetry. Stories. If you understand what she has written,
you will understand her.
Understanding often can be painful and may challenge you, but this
struggle will bring you knowledge. Do not give up. With that knowledge
brings sensitivity. Sensitivity is the highest form of intelligence.
She likes travelling. She probably likes it better if you travel with
her.
When the time comes to make love with her, be gentle and careful. Try
to read her and feel her. Be patient.
She most likely would appreciate it if you got along with her friends
and family. Make an effort and be patient.
When faced with a problem (in rel. to her), do not get too lost in
your own personal understanding and biases. Likewise, do not hold onto
any philosophy or knowledge from a written text with too much faith,
because it will only hurt you. Also, listening to your friends can be
good and bad. In relation to all of this, the proper dosage always
distinguishes between a poison and a remedy. If anything, always live
with the underlying principle that love, hope, and understanding are
supreme.
She appreciates colors and textures. Think about this in terms of
clothes, movies, pictures, etc. She likes green.
She may refer to New York City as "The City" occasionally. Just act
like you call it that too.
She sometimes lets her belongings get into a mess. Wash her dishes and
clean her room occasionally. It can be a very perceptive experience.
She likes hot sauce. She also likes her food saucy.
She likes seafood.
She likes Vietnamese food. Pho with seafood. Summer rolls.
She may act very picky about her summer rolls. Just agree with her.
She's allergic to ice cream, but she loves sorbet.
She has the tendency to scratch her legs. I guess you can scratch them
for her sometimes.
