I secretly keep a list of all the kindest things you've said to me, those things which warmed my heart and made me feel special. I know it's stupid and maybe even a little creepy, but I have this horrible habit of doubting people's intentions, their faithfulness. I know that if I can pull out my little book of your sweet nothings and read a few, I can be reminded that this suspicion and doubt is all in my head, and that you do care.

I feel this so much. I always end up keeping a list of nice things a person has said to me. I feel like I hold onto words too much.

I have a list too. When he goes from full on flirting to ignoring me. I pull it out and remind myself why I keep holding on.

One of these days it's just going to be a piece of paper, but right now it's everything my pathetic self relies on.
