Leaving so soon?
Stay.
Sit.
Have a drink.
Coffee, tea, or me?
That smile suits you.
Get comfy.
Try these bedroom slippers.
You want some cookies?
I’ll go make pasta.
Is white sauce okay for you?
White wine or red wine?
I think white would be good too
Could you pop the cork for me?
Bon appetit!
Here, have some more.
I’ve missed you.
This might be the wine talking.
Don’t go.
Not this time.
Not again.
Please.
“Just stay, okay?”
For those who spend hours and hours in a coffee shop hoping to lock eyes with someone new…
For those who are holding on to a stagnant relationship…
For those who are sitting by the door at 3am, peering out the window every once and awhile…
For those who go to your ex’s house, drunk of libations and hope…
For those who keep on reading messages from 4 months ago…
For those who go back to the place where you used to hang out with someone…
For those who go over that box of letters from a beloved, every night, before you go to bed…
For those who can’t stop writing sad poems about how you lost someone..
For those who stay until the seasons change…
For those who are holding on to anorexic hope…
For those who wait…
Take it from someone who is thick enough to give this advice but can’t follow it herself
DON’T!
