You Deserve More Than A ‘U Up?’ Kind Of Love
By Aly McHenry
You deserve more than a guy who sends a three letter text past midnight that only reads the single question, ‘U up?’ So block his number and go to sleep. Wait for the kind of love you deserve, because I swear it’s out there, and it’s waiting for you too.
You deserve the kind of love that calls you beautiful when you first wake up in the morning. You deserve the kind of love that makes you feel loved on the inside and on the outside. The kind of love that makes you feel beautiful immediately after thinking you’re not. The kind of love that makes you feel wanted and desired.
You deserve the kind of love that genuinely wants you around, and not just late at night, but on a Saturday afternoon. You deserve the kind of love that misses you after only a day without you. You deserve the kind of love that considers you priority instead of a sacrifice.
You deserve the kind of love that remembers how you take your coffee. You deserve a love that’s fun and meaningful. The kind of love that bakes sugar cookies with you at 2AM out of pure boredom.The kind of love that’s thoughtful and sweet.
You deserve the kind of love that puts you first. The kind of love that thinks of you before they think of anything else. The kind of love that calls you just to say hi, and the kind of love that wants what’s best for you even when it’s not what’s best for themselves.
You deserve the kind of love that reminds you of it’s love everyday. You deserve the kind of love that never forgets to remind you how loved you truly are. The kind of love that isn’t only said on rare occasions, but always. The kind of love that is said frequently, but never out of habit. Just out of pure feeling, conviction, and the need for you to know.
You deserve the kind of love that’s honest. You deserve the kind of love that tells you everything and never makes you feel crazy, confused, or scared. The kind of love that never makes you wonder. The kind of love that tells you the truth even when it’s hard, especially when it’s hard.
You deserve the kind of love that loves you even when you’re not looking. You deserve a love that’s faithful. A love that doesn’t even have to try and be faithful, but they just are because any idea to the contrary would be completely absurd.
You deserve the kind of love that makes you feel safe. The kind of love that presses a kiss to your forehead to let you know everything is okay, even when it isn’t. The kind of love that wraps you in his arms and calms you down as you rest your head on his chest.
You deserve the kind of love that loves you back just as much. Undeniably and indescribably. You deserve to be loved so much they can’t even put it in to words, because it wouldn’t do your love justice. You deserve the kind of love that makes you feel happy, and secure.
You deserve the kind of love that’s there for you. Through everything. Through any moment you feel less than okay. Not through text. In the moment, and in person. Even when it’s hard, especially when it’s hard. Because that’s what real love is, and real love is the kind of love you deserve.
