What about LOVE?
February 13, 2009
As what we all know even if some wouldn’t want to notice tomorrow will be Valentine’s Day. I don’t care about it anyway but I have nothing against those who will tear down their wallet or scrape off their cards for the sake of V-Day.
Relationship topics are something I don’t usually talk about much more share to a lot of people. This is the first time that I will reveal what I have to say about it here in my blog.
Liberation is something I would like to have being 21. In which I should be able to assert myself, to express my thoughts and ideas and to be open to other people. I want to achieve that goal responsibly.
I am not someone who talks a lot personally. It’s hard for me to open up. I am better read than heard. Maybe to share my thoughts regarding this kind of topic is a good step to take to achieve that goal.
Love or should I say romantic relationship is complicated. Needless to say that’s why there is a very well used status tag in Friendster, It’s Complicated.
Love is something that is felt but relationship is a decision that is made. When it comes to love or relationship I don’t have that much first hand experiences yet. I think what I’ve been through in such area is little compared with other people my age might already have. What I have right now is bits and pieces of realizations from the experiences I’ve had in the 21 years of my existence personal or otherwise.
I grew up practically tied up with what my mother kept on telling me then, “Kung magboboyfriend, magboyfriend na lang. Wag nang mag-aral, Saka na yan pag tapos na mag-aral” I followed it through…almost. I didn’t have that much problem in following that “order”. I don’t know..I was not just interested in real life relationship. But I did have crushes, lots of them. When it comes to crushes I am just like any other girl. Another thing maybe was because whenever i knew that someone likes me and I didn’t like him back I just simply put enough distance between me and whoever he was.(may nagkagusto/nagkakagusto din naman sakin kahit di ako kagandahan.hehe)
Whenever I see couples who are nauseatingly sweet even in public I just ignore them because I somehow understand why they were acting that way. Love can make someone’s world turn upside down.
To love and be loved in return is a wonderful feeling. However it doesn’t last long. Complications and conflicts will come. Therefore just enjoy when there’s to be enjoyed and wave goodbye when it’s over.
Sentimentality and holding on to a relationship can be harmful if the time and situation isn’t right. There are things in life that need to be prioritized first. As for me, right now, it could be having a career.
