Why you should love a writer in the first place

Despite the emotional turmoil, writers are often great people to be in a relationship with. Not that I'm, well, biased or anything.

You will never again run out of things to read. Self explanatory.

You will fall in love with words, because she will use them to paint a picture in your mind, a picture of a beautiful place. She will write you love letters and poems and dedicate novels to you. You might not know it at first. She will probably be writing poems about you and basing characters off of you before you even speak to her. You might possibly be her muse and not even know it.

But when you do know it, you will become immortalized in ink. She'll create characters modeled in your likeness, she'll write down the words that you speak, the things that you do, the places you go and the stories you tell. She will use you, but you will forever go down in print. And maybe only you will know it. You will share this secret with your writer. You are hers, but she is also yours.

There is no in between with a writer. She wears her heart on her sleeve for all to see, and if you look close enough you will either see how deeply she loves you or how much she despises you. She may be secretive, but you will know if she is happy or if she is sad. Why she feels the way she does is an entirely different question, but she won't keep you guessing what she's feeling.

If you forget a Valentine's Day present, pick up a notebook and decorate the cover. Or just pick up a notebook. Or give her an old book you found laying in your closet. Or a bundle of pens and pencils that you don't plan on using anymore.

If you thought writers were creative on paper, you should see them in real life. A mystery writer might ask you to tie her to a chair so she can try to escape, try to figure out how her main character is about to get out of a sticky situation. And if you thought a writer's mind can drift, I can guarantee that yours is currently.

If she writes for a living she can go anywhere. When you move, if you want to take her with you, all you need to do is pack up her desk and her writing utensils and take her on an adventure. And she will love every minute of her.

It might be difficult at first, and these reasons may seem shallow. But in all honesty, you should date a writer because she, with every inch of her body, will love you until you break her heart.
