Then it happens. You tell her that you trust her with everything, that you can tell her anything. And you tell her that you need her advice.You want to know how to make a girl feel special. Now she doesn't know what to think. A million emotions run through her mind: confusion, frustration, surprise. When did the other girl come into the picture? She knows everything about you. How could she miss this? And swimming among all those feelings is hope; hope that she may be the girl that you want to make feel special. She says that all a girl really wants and needs from a guy is attention. Candy and roses don't mean nearly as much as a few minutes of precious quality time alone with you. You thank her and wish her a good night. She doesn't tell you that she doesn't want to say good night. Did you notice how she waited for you to hang up first? She didn't want to say goodbye. She wanted to fall asleep to the sound of your voice.
But she sees how happy you are and puts on her brave face whenever you talk about your new girlfriend. She even throws in a few bits of advice so that you'll have no idea that she's crying inside. She tries her best to be happy for you. She stands by you through all the hard times and she sits with you at the ice cream shop to celebrate your high points. She lives through more of your girlfriends: the one who wasn't good enough for you; the one who used you; the one that your buddies set you up with; and the worst of them all: the one that she can easily be friends with, the one who might be right for you. But they all come and go, convincing her even more that she and you are meant for each other. That's why she's there after every heartbreak, patiently waiting with open arms. She hopes that you'll notice that time has made her a better person for you. And when you do, you'll see that she's always been there waiting for you. |
