Because most of us spend our time reading or watching, our aspirations are wider.
But as an introvert, maybe thats okay.
Maybe what we need is someone whos willing to know the mystery behind our shy demeanor.
Someone willing not to break but to be inside our own little bubbles.
Someone whos willing to listen.
Or maybe just someone whos willing.

We appreciate the beauty of silence.
We love eating with them while watching our favorite movies and talking about even the things that dont matter.
We love these mundane little things as much as we love the silence.
But dont get us wrong; its not that we hate talking to people.
In fact, given the chance, wed also like some of our stories to be heard.
And perhaps this is where another quality of being an introvert gets in the equation.
We carefully choose the people we spend time with.
We need our own alone time.
We need space to breathe, and to reconnect with our inner selves.
While others need to drink, travel or work, this is how we recharge.
During these times, we need people to know that we are not selfish.
Believe that once we love you, we devote ourselves to you as much as we can.
We need to be understood more than normal people.
We are what the society call loners, socially awkward, geeks, nerds, and even weirdos.
We have tendencies to feel sad for no apparent reason.
We need to hear your voice because this is how we find comfort.
We need your touch because this is our security blanket.
During times like these, we simply need you to be here.
We need your patience.
Because we have mood swings, we often forget the idea of time.
We could spend hours, days or weeks drowning in our own emotions.
When we do, like when we attend social events, we need someone to reach out to us.
it’s possible for you to breathe now.
We are idealistic.
We want someone whos almost as the same as us.
We dont want superficial conversations.
We want someone whos passionate about something, about anything.
We want someone who asks us not questions like Whats your favorite color?
but instead What do you think about the color blue?
Someone who doesnt ask where we live but instead whether or not we like the place we live in.
Someone who doesnt ask what were doing during rainy days but instead ask what we feel when it rains.
We dont like simple his and hellos.
We want someone whos deep and curious and smart.
Someone who sincerely tries.
We want to know that they appreciate what they find in us, including the messy, unlovable details.
We want to be sure that you are sure of us.
We want you to let us see it all: your mind, your heart, your soul.
We dont like settling for less because more than knowing what we want, we know what we deserve.
Because once we share the love we so tried to keep, we give it all.
We dont hold back.
