You know when you have a crush on someone, but they're so perfect to you that you think they don't even know you exist?
Hoping they could just notice you and they can become more than a crush...
How every time you see them, you point them out to your friends...
How you can only dream about their smell, their touch, their voice..
How perfect they seem to you, but only from a distance, because you've never been too close.. Or close enough...
You know if you go to close your heart might just pound out of your chest, or you might do the wrong thing...

Then one day they finally notice you and you engage in short conversation with them..
Then the conversations get longer and longer and you start hanging out with them.. and laughing with them and telling jokes, the sleepovers and the whole package... and as always in the beginning, things are always perfect...

Then time passes and you're still hanging out, but things start to change... and you realize everything you thought was a scam.. every perfect thing you thought about them was protected by distance because they aren't at all what you thought...

In fact, you realize you can't even stand to be around them because they are so far from what you thought and they start to seem ugly to you because their personality is so bitter...

Then you realize there is no connection at all...

And just like that, they become the perfect stranger again... except this time you won't long for their smell, their touch, their voice...
