You were more important than you realise..

I was reading another blog today and the title of my blog is the sentence which caught my eye. The idea that someone doesn't realise how they have affected your life is such a strange concept. How can only one person feel something? Now I'm not exclusively relating this to romantic relationships but in general that is what this usually applies to. If you think back across your life, I bet a face will come to you in the way that others don't.

Out of all the millions of people in the world, I believe that there are some which we are destined to meet, whether it be online, in person and through a letter gone astray. Almost fate like. These people may be in your life for an hour, a week, a year or forever. What is important about these people which others don't have is the complete lack of understanding how they have affected you.

These people are of so much importance to you, they affect the decisions you make, they way you behave, the way you dress etc and they have no clue. How? I can never comprehend how someone can have such a life altering effect on someones life and not know. What would happen if they did? Would this person all of a sudden become less important? Is it the fact that they don't know keeping them on a pedestal?

If you had the chance to be honest and tell them every little thing which made them important...would you?

Or would you simply utter:

"I hope you remember me. Because you were more important than you realise."

I know what I would do...
