A love story is not a collection of perfect moments with a romantic beginning and a happy ending. It is about moments of insanity, moments of craziness, unreasonable fights, illogical arguments, crossing lines and putting up with out of the blue erratic mood swings.Being in love is not about feeling safe and feeling sure about the future. It’s about breaking you, shattering you, shuddering every single bone and pulsating every single nerve in our body and still making your bo nd stronger each day. It is about being vulnerable, uncertain , susceptible and still madly in love. So don’t fear love when it comes, simply because it makes you vulnerable and don’t be surprised when it leaves either. Just be glad you had the opportunity to experience it. It might last for a few minutes, few days, weeks, months or years and then it might surprise you and last you a lifetime...
I doubt that I’m alone in saying that I don’t like most people. I’m fairly certain that most people don’t like most people — which, when you think about it — is amusing and interesting in itself. The concepts of liking and disliking things is likewise interesting. You’d think that such a crucial process, a process that governs all of our decision-making, would be objectively measurable. It, however, isn’t. When we talk about liking or disliking something or someone, we don’t say that the individual is likable or dislikable. We don’t say that that something or someone is liked or disliked; we say “I” or “we” like or dislike that something or someone. By nature, to like or dislike is entirely subjective. The real question is: Why does this matter? It matters because what or whom we like or dislike reflects more about us than it does that something or someone under the microscope. Of course, we may believe that the reasons we have for liking or disliking something or someone wou
There is nothing in life that will make you stronger or screw you up more than heartbreak. I have only had my heart broken by one person in my life — and it was more than enough. Falling in love with someone isn’t only falling in love with an incredible person, a person you find to be one of the best people in the world. It’s also falling in love with the person you become when you’re with the one you love. Sometimes the person we love makes us want to be a person who isn’t especially great. But when your love does make you want to be a better person, what the two of you share has a real shot at lasting the test of time. Yet, there’s still more to it than just that. Falling in love is also falling in love with what you believe to be your future. Most often, losing this is what hurts the most. When you lose the love of your life, you lose a piece of yourself — the piece that holds you together. You lose the piece of you that makes you the good person you’ve become; you lose th
Loving someone is one of the most vulnerable positions in which you can be. You open your heart to another person and your best wish is for her to love you in return. Unfortunately, life is not a Nicholas Sparks movie; love isn’t always reciprocated, and it doesn’t always end in a happily ever after. I had to learn this hard truth, and chances are, you’re reading this because you have, too. Sometimes, love isn’t a feeling you force upon yourself; it just happens. When you start to spend more time with another human being, you expose yourself to whom she is — all the idiosyncrasies, past experiences, what makes her happy or sad, dreams and ambitions in life, flaws and the depths of her heart. And you, in return, divulge your deepest secrets and desires. They know what it takes to make you laugh or feel special, and you build new memories together that make any torment of the past that much easier to bear. It makes you feel hopeful, and before you know it, you’re in love. I
LOVE is the best teacher. From it, you will learn more than you could possibly ever learn in a classroom or from a book. The reason for this is rather simple — we feel more when we’re in love. Human beings learn through their senses as well as through the way they process and interpret the information taken in by those senses. When we find ourselves in love, the chemicals released by our brains paired with the emotional sensations we experience allow us to experience life in hyperdrive. We feel more alive and take in more of the world around us. Being in love is the greatest high on the planet. It’s the most natural of highs, as it’s produced by our own bodies, as well as being the longest lasting high on the planet. It increases our senses and allows us to both take in more information and process that information under a more positive light. Our imaginations tend to get the best of us when we’re in love, creating alternative realities where our fantasies are born. Love he
If you are on the verge of having a breakup don’t bring bitterness in your heart. Don’t let your soul suffer the agony.The best break ups are the ones that are silent. Relationships don’t come with a lifetime warranty.If it doesn’t workout for you it is more respectable to go out of a loving relationship without saying any bad or disrespectful words. If you have truly loved someone you would hate to go out of that relationship because it is not easy.But sometimes it is worth keeping the sweet loving memories in your heart and cherish them without bitterness. Just forgive and let go and move on...
There are 7 billion people on this planet and we all differ in gender, race, height, weight and opinions, but we all have one thing in common: We want LOVE. People that say they have no interest or desire for love are not only lying to you, but also lying to themselves. I enjoy posting about love because it’s simply amazing. To be honest, it’s addicting. The concept of love seems so simple, yet it’s simultaneously so complicated. Why do we seek love so intensely? Perhaps we desire it for the comfort and reassurance that it offers. We believe that we are put on this planet to find a soul mate to love us for who we are.' Love is so sought after because it provides for feelings that nothing else in the world can match.' Love is the butterflies in your stomach, the glistening sparkle in his eyes when he looks at you and the ear-to-ear smile she brings to your face whenever she walks into a room. The amazing thing about love is that in comes in so many forms and dimensions
Why is it that we remember some things so vividly and others not at all? Some things we remember in such perfect detail that we can almost relive that moment in our minds, over and over again. At the same time, we’ll have difficulty remembering the name of that person we met three minutes ago. Clearly it isn’t only the happiest memories that follow us through life, but also the most horrible memories – those memories that haunt us no matter how hard we try to forget them. What makes a memory memorable isn’t actually the actions that make up that memory. It’s not the things that happened that matter to you, but rather how those things made you feel that sticks with you long after. We remember those events that made us feel the most. It’s the emotions that resulted from those events that make the events themselves feel so real, even years after the fact. For this reason, it isn’t difficult to imagine women – specifically – having a harder time letting things go. Women are more

Sometimes, our hearts hurt more than we reveal. Sometimes, our smiles lack the feelings in which we conceal. Sometimes, what we hide is who we are. And sometimes, where we are supposed to be is not very far. But who we are is what we show because to the world, that is what we bestow. It’s like a rainy day in the month of May - unwanted, but expected; vulnerable, but protected. We walk on the edge in hopes of not falling. But if we do, we know it’s our calling. As laughter swe eps the lives of many, tears embody the hearts of plenty. Fill our lives with hopes and joys, dreaming of maintaining one’s poise. We strive to be who we want to be, but it’s affected by that of which people see. Truth unfolds in the lies of some, while lies unfold of what some become. Whatever life brings, the heart should be what always sings. No more echoes from those around you, time to learn from all you’ve been through - a love once loved, or a hurt you forever have shoved. A lesson comes with each mistake,
ONCE A LOVER, NOW A STRANGER; WHY LOVE IS THE RISK WE SHOULD ALL BE TAKING... I’ve always found the concept of breaking up with someone to be both unsettling and sad. Whenever I hear of a friend or family member’s relationship coming to an end, I feel somewhat disappointed that another love failed yet again. Seeing some families where their parents met and fell in love at 18 years old, I grew up believing in the whole “fairy-tale” ending phenomenon. I just didn’t understand how if two people loved each other so much, they could even fathom ending things. I think this is part of the reason I struggled so much in ending my first long-term relationship. She was more than just a LOVER; I grew up with her. I had so many firsts with this girl, and I went through many hard times with her by my side. She was my best friend for a couple of months and I couldn’t imagine life without her, or how I was even happy before we came together. Before I knew it, everything changed. She made c
All it takes is one person to teach us what it means and feels like to be in love. Unfortunately, it also simply takes one person to shatter our trust and belief in the concept of any romantic notions. The difference between these two kinds of people is that while one strengthens our faith in happy endings, the other turns us into a cynic. It has been said that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. However, we continue to enforce a variety of defense mechanisms, just so we never have to experience the feeling of love being ripped from under our feet. Once a part of our heart is stolen, there is no way in hell we are getting it back. That thought alone is f*cking frightening. So, we hit the ground running; go with me on this metaphor for a second. We lace up our sneakers so tightly that our feet go numb; it doesn’t matter, though, because the rest of our bodies and mind cannot feel anything anyway, nor do they want to. We direct our attention s
How is it that so many people can be afraid of three simple words: “I” “LOVE” and “YOU”? The answer is rather obvious – saying “I love you” to a person is saying that not only do you care about this person immensely, but you also would do just about anything to keep that person as a part of your life. Saying “I love you” to someone is telling that person you need him or her, that you depend on him or her in some way or another. We’re so reluctant to say we love someone because it’s basically telling that person that we are submitting a part of ourselves to him or her. We are entrusting a piece of ourselves to someone other than ourselves. This scares us. And rightly so. As human beings, we rely on other people our entire lives. We rely on our parents for food, shelter and safety until we are able to fend for ourselves. Nowadays, this often means relying on them well into our 30's. We rely on people our entire lives because it’s the only way for us not only to survive, but t
