Now for the heavy stuff.
I believe this quote, and it's took me a few years of trying to figure it out to come to that conclusion. I was thinking about how many I know have said they were in love with people that they are no longer with, and how they feel now about they in comparison with how they felt.
For me, I do believe that there are different kinds of love and that each takes you to a different place. With romantic love I think love is personal and adaptable to a relationship. People are so different, and each relationship is so different that we cannot say love is the same template set onto of every couple in love.
Love is something I hate writing about ins tone, because it's so changeable. It's different from year to year and love deepens and grows and long as we do. I find that people seem to think love is a stage of a relationship and after a certain milestone we are expected to be in love with this person. Of course time doesn't not equal love, because nothing we can do, or anything length of time can make us fall in love.
Love is about waking up and realising your feeling will never change no matter what happens. I don't believe in falling out of love, and I don't believe in loving more than one person. I believe in situations you can love more than one person, if you're forced to move on but you will still that person forever despite the reasons you can't be together.
Just the thing that gets my goat about people is the expectation of love, as if it's something so everyday. Love is unexpected and unfathomable. We cannot set a time limit, we cannot pick somebody to fall in love with. If we ever do fall in love the odds are we will not be loved back to the same extent and it's horrifying but it's a fact.
I believe some people are more susceptable to love than others, and that some aren't built to fall in love. I believe if you're taken away from somebody that you love you'll spend years trying to process it and move on.
As for those 'in love' one minute and next thing with somebody else 'in love'. Well, it'll never work if you fake it.
Love is lost and undefined.
And probably very little of us will ever find it.
