Someone's idea of pretty or attractive.

We all have our personal definitions for "pretty" or "attractive". If we didn't, we would probably be attracted to every human being we see and that could cause problems. And it's both good and suck...ish.

Do you like the way her hair turns brown under the sunlight? Do you like the way she walks into class with that hey-i'm-here-but-not-totally-here-psh attitude? Do you like the way she blinks a lot when she doesn't know what to do? Do you like the way you just know your arms would fit nicely around her waist? Do you like looking at her lips while she's talking, constantly biting them when she's thinking hard?

You know what? Other people do that, too.

BUT

You're not attracted to them the way you are to other certain people.

And it's weird. It can hurt. It could be the loveliest thing ever, precious, and cute. It can be everything. It can be nothing.

Now here's something for an imaginary attractive dude I would SO want to meet.

Maybe it's the way your mouth curves into a smile when you think of something brilliant, or the way you make me think about the most random things. Maybe it's the way you fill my mind with stories about modern people, dancing unicorns, parades in the rain, and the words you find in books that you want to use over and over again for the rest of your life. Maybe it's the way you dress yourself, so simple, yet it looks good. Maybe it's the way those guitar strings seem so in love with you. Maybe it's the way you glance at your wrist watch when things are getting awkward. Maybe it's the way you see math as a language. Maybe it's the way you have friends, but you don't always hang out with them because you're stuck somewhere reading a book. Maybe it's the way your glasses make your eyes look bigger, your smile friendlier, your whole existence more huggable than ever. Maybe it's the way you tend to spit out details like "Oh hey, I love you. I mean, i've only known you for a few months, but I love you. I mean, not entirely love because there's infatuation, crushes, squishes, and being in love is something else. I mean, I don't even know your favorite country. I mean, am I even supposed to know your favorite country? Do you even have a favorite country? Oh hey, I love you." Maybe it's the way you don't normally glance, but when you do, it electrifies the air and it's just so awesome. Maybe it's the way you just glow with confidence. Maybe it's the way you're not all that obvious. Maybe it's the way you want me to explain things because you ask too much. Maybe it's because you're weird in a very good way.

Oh, I know a lot of people would find a person like that cute.
