I Want To Run Away, But I Want To Take You With Me

I want to run away. I know it sounds odd, probably a bit funny right? An adult, wanting to run away. Wanting to just disappear from the struggles of life for a bit and just [i]live[/i] . Highly aware of the troubles she may get into, the sacrifices she might need to make. Aware of of the whole situation that it might just [b]all[/b] end badly. But there’s a part of me that says

“even if it did, it’s not like you had anything to live for to begin with”

An adventure filled with regrets, happiness, pain and a journey to remember. An adventure to a new city or an adventure into nature. An adventure on feet or car or by plane. An adventure with little to no money. It’s crazy, it’s stupid and it’s reckless. But it’s an adventure that’s needed. Because i still have that naive mind set of a child to just go out and live life day by day maybe second by second. To just [i]run away[/i] and live life to the fullest. Highly aware of the mistakes and regrets to follow but more interested in a life of adventure.

The only thing stopping me? [i]I don’t have anyone stupid enough to risk everything, drop everything to go on that adventure with me[/i]

@geoam1 It's true been there but i'd rather go alone and find what will be along the way.

What would you be escaping from...? I can see older people (+30) wanting to do that, as life often becomes a routine and/or struggle that it's hard to escape (bad married life, bad career, etc.). But you're young (18-21?) That's the age when normally people "escape" their life with their parents and start a "new life" anyway... so looks like you simply want to live your live (and that's not running away, or escaping anywhere...)

@drymer My 1 year old son passed away in September by the hands of his father. I was in an abusive marriage for 3 years and now I have nothing. So yeah, I just want to run away. It’s pathetic, but so am I.

@loveena Wow 😮 No, it's not pathetic, and you aren't pathetic either... Glad you said you "were" in a abusive marriage (not "are"), so it's good you turned that page... You're still young and you should be able to "run away" from your past without a problem, I think...
