Butterflies.

"If you should return to me,

We truly were meant to be.

So spread your wings and fly,

Butterfly."

How do you know you like someone?

No, really - serious question.

Because sometimes, it's really hard to tell. Like, it could be just a passing crush, where you just love being with that person, but you may not like them in that way? You know? And you trick yourself into thinking you do, and then when crunch time comes - you realise it was all a self-made scam.

"When their smile gives you butterflies?"

Lately that's been happening to me heaps. It's not because I'm "desperate" or anything. I just have a lot of really lovely boys in my life. Many whom I've thought I liked for days, or even weeks at a time. And then either something clicks and I'm like "hang on Dannie, you don't really like this person that way" or it becomes crunch time, and I decide at the last minute that it's not what I want - and then I just look like a rejecting bitch. Again.

So I want to know, how do you really know if you like someone in that way?

Do you like someone when your heart beats faster around them? 

When you're constantly seeking their approval? 

When they're the first person you're looking for in a room full of people? 

When their smile gives you butterflies? 

When you find yourself always on their facebook page: checking to see if there are any new girls on the scene?

All these things are what I usually judge with. How I used to figure out if I liked a guy.

But they don't always work. And I need to find out a foolproof method, before I hurt someone again. Before I hurt myself again.

"You're the only one I'm dreaming of,

You see I can be myself now finally.

In fact there's nothing I can't be,
I want the world to see you'll be with me."
