I have been writing in a journal on an almost-daily basis since I was 17 years old. This is a record of me going through each entry from the beginning, and commenting on the me from fifteen years ago.

I love you Sarah. I’ve never told you but I mean it so much. If I ever am lucky enough to earn your love, I’ll need nothing else. Hear me when I say it at night when I’m alone. Dream with me when I’m asleep. I’ll dream of you and you, me. I do love you so much. Give me the chance.

Please learn a lesson from me, angst-ridden youth of America. Trying to win a girl over by communicating with her through dream messages in the middle of the night does not work. You actually need to speak with them in the real world. In fact, talking with girls is the number one way to meet them and go on dates with them. Believe me on this.
