Smitten

Do you remember when you used to slide a folded note to your crush with one question and a multiple choice answer? Check yes, no, or maybe so. You knew right then if the feelings were mutual. You knew if you should try a little harder or let it go. Childhood crushes were the best. Gone are the days of simplicity. Asking someone to prom is like a marriage proposal. Straight yes or no answers have become "its complicated." Do you remember when you didn't care about titles or status? You just enjoyed someone's company. He/She made you smile and that was enough. You were smitten. You didn't care to complicate things. You just enjoyed the moment. Get back to the fundamentals. Revisit square one. Enjoy the simple things. Doodle your names on a piece of paper. Draw your initials on a tree. Laugh really hard, and try not to blush. Enjoy just being smitten.
