Dear Universe,

Dear Universe,

I know we talk a lot about love, and I know I've asked you pretty demented requests that you have, not without some hesitation, granted. You are probably sick of me asking for finding something real when I am playing with fire all the time, and even sicker of my talks to other people when I tell I'm convinced love is not for me and then secrety wish it is going to hit me any day. I don't think I've wasted my time with the experiences I've had, and I'm convinced I have a better idea of what to ask for, so if you're still listening, please take this few things into consideration for next time:

I want a relationship based on laughter. I want lots of jokes filling the air. Please provide plenty of those moments when his eyes meet mine and we smile because we are having a blast. Please provide plenty of inside jokes that make us burst to laughter in public situations. Please have everyone saying "those two..." and smiling too.

I'm tired of starcrossed affairs. I want the other person to believe that we can work it out even if we met in a distant land. I don't want to fight oceans between us or parents, or closets. I want someone as ready as I am to live to the fullest with someone else. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind my relationships being action packed and intense, but for one, do I get to keep the guy at the end of the movie?

Maybe I'm being a little cheeky in here, but let me excercise fully my right to have basic instincts. I want sexual repression to be a ghost of the past. I want to feel how my flesh burns and melts with his. I want to speak the language of the body and talk to my fingers and my mouth when words fall short. Let me sigh when I wake up next to him every morning and then whisper "damn, he's hot.The hottest."

Spare me the need to be fake or to pretend I'm the strongest when I stumble. Allow me to find a place where I can be truly honest and not to have to pay for that with the sour coin of deceit, manipulation, and backstabbing. Give me someone who is comfortable both with a naked body and a naked soul.

One more thing: let me earn it. Retribute justly to my effort. I don't want to take anything for granted. I want to feel that I have fought for love and that it has paid off. Set me on a quest. Nonetheless, once I've struggled enough to find love, let me find him also gasping because he was on a similar race to get to me.

I trust I've been clear enough. Sorry if I'm being picky. I hope you found this request more down to earth that the model-like, demi-gods, James Dean like, prince charming shit I've asked before.

Ps.English is a must. I consider full management of another foreign language a plus.
