I never plan things ahead of time and therefore whatever happens it takes me by surprise. Like the breakup I am going through at the moment. People who have been in serious relationship and then broken up will know it is the most hurtful and perhaps the most frustrating time period in a relationship. So, I am writing this as a sort of therapy and to be able to pour out all my anger, hurt and pain.
It all started with sweet kisses and sweet notes. In fact everything was so sweet in the beginning I almost felt diabetic. But good things don’t always have a happy ending, do they? I guess I was blown by all his boyish charm, good looks that I failed to notice the things that really mattered. After constant fights, disappointments and hours of thinking have I realized that I was just living a fantasy. Maybe it was the influence of all these cute Korean movies or love stories I was so willing to make that relationship last.
Now, when I look back I laugh at myself and am like what was I thinking? I was just 16 then and had literally planned my whole life with him. It is crazy to see how we keep falling in and out of love. They say love happens once in a life time but if that’s the case why am I not with the person I once loved. Maybe because there are other feelings called infatuation which often haunts teens. We always end up confusing crushes and infatuations with love.
I am afraid that the world has changed and this new modernized world of ours does not have a thing called love or true love. If true love existed then why do we see so many wrecked relationships, shattered homes and broken hearts? Love is something that is supposed to bring joy to a person’s life but from what I have seen all it has brought is tears and messed one’s life.
Plus, these days I am so taken aback by the amount of people who say they are in love. I just want to tell them please don’t confuse love with infatuation because it is going to hurt if you can’t tell the difference between two. This is especially for young boys and girls. When we are young and we find someone attractive we rush into things. First starts the friendship then the relationship and then the problems. I guess all these within few months. That is why I believe it is always good to wait and see whether we will continue loving the person even after he becomes physically unattractive or financially weak.
True love is rare to find but when we do find it I bet we will feel delight like no other chocolate cookies can bring or even a shopping spree. So I suppose it is best we wait, wait for the right girl or the boy rather than going out with a bunch of wrong persons just for the sake of being in a relationship.
