Deep breath

Have you ever met someone that completely took your breath away? I'm not just talking about appearances or the way their body looks, I'm talking about 110% you are so blown away you forget to breathe. It is crazy. We walk through this world seeing everybody as one. You have your jocks, cheerleaders, bums, successful ones, know it alls, etc. yet, the very first time you meet someone and label them, you miss the opportunity to learn more about them. Because in the back of your mind, always, you are talking to the girl who spends way too much time getting ready in the morning. I do this, you do this, and it is done upon you. Because we are human and it is what we do. But... What if you met somebody that doesn't fit in a category, and no matter what you do, you cannot give them a title. Is that a good thing? It's amazing. I have been fortunate enough to meet a man like this. His life fascinates me to no end, and I could spend countless sleepless days talking with him about everything and nothing, and I could never describe him in one word. He doesn't fit into categories. Why do I love this? Because my craving to talk to him. Not to text him, or like his pictures on Facebook. While talking to him on the phone is great because I get to hear the expression in his voice, meeting with him in person is unexplainable. Being able to connect with someone on an emotional level through body language and to stare intently when you speak to them cannot be replaced. There is a whole other level of communication when the person is just as interested in the conversation as you are, and you can see it in their eyes.
