A Missing Piece



people ask me if i want a boyfriend and i can honestly respond with a solid and confident no. i don't want a boyfriend. i want a best friend. i want someone to split my hamburger with. i want someone that i want to talk to for days on days. i want someone that will put up with my stubborn, outspoken personality and passion for kanye and biggie. i don't want a boyfriend. i don't want a boy who will buy me necklaces and earrings when he is upset me. i want a boy who will talk and who will listen and learn from our fights and misunderstandings (i promise to listen and learn too). besides, i can buy my own jewelry. i want someone to spend all day sunday with and not just saturday night. i want someone who appreciates me, although that is a bit cliche, but true nevertheless. i want to be challenged and argued with and not appeased. please, do anything but appease me. say you want chinese when i want italian because i'll probably want italian a lot. i don't want a boyfriend who will treat me like another girl on a list. fuck, i hate lists. i hate being on lists. i hate thinking i'm a dime a dozen. i want someone who isn't a boyfriend. i want someone who loves me unconditionally, who respects and values my opinion, who wants me beside him at the bar, in his bed and then at the breakfast table the next morning. so no, i don't want a boyfriend. i want a best friend.
