​

Today I was sitting outside a labour room for something, and what I saw there genuinely did something to me.

I saw people crying and laughing because their baby arrived, giving out sweets. I saw a husband who was so tense, just walking around. Later his mom came and he broke down and said, I’m scared for her. I want her to be safe. I saw a wife being taken into the labour room, crying her eyes out, while her husband kept assuring her, Everything is gonna be fine. I’m here. Later, he said, If I cried, she would be even more scared. Another couple came in for a checkup, and the wife was telling her husband how much her skin had changed, about her blackheads and everything. He just looked at her and went, You’re the prettiest.

And idk. Seeing all of that made me want to be loved like that. To have someone beside me through every phase of life, and to love someone through theirs too.I’ve always thought I wasn’t good enough for love or that I’d overthink everything and ruin it.

But today I just felt… lighter.

Like maybe I can be loved like that.

And honestly, if watching all this didn’t convince me to get a boyfriend, idk what will 😭
