How to Love Your Introvert


Do not punish me for the silence in my goodbyes or the shortage of the words in my hello. I will rarely know the right thing to say. Do not take this silence for disinterest or assume I do not care. The greatest gift I’ve ever wanted to give you is in the space I leave for you to grow. Allow me to love you in the only way I know how, with metaphors and silence. Love me enough to let me love you.
