I came around on love...
Young love is a bittersweet concept. For the most part, it's all fun, sunshines, rainbows and carefree, hormone-hyped behaviour. Then there's the inevitable part every young adult goes through, the toxic and heartbreaking side.
I was always shy and reserved, never boy crazy or felt the need to have a man. Somehow, I often found my self falling into mens lives rather than actively choosing to be with them. Eventually, I was tired of it all. Tired of the mind games, the paranoia and trust issues, and ultimately just tired of feeling worthless. So eventually, as every young immature girl does, I gave up and chose to hate dating and avoid the concept of marriage, a commitment I once longed for.
That's until I met him. He fell into my life exactly how people told me he would, unexpectedly and when I least expected it...just when I thought love wasn't for me. He never used his "game" to win me over, it was all real and authentic from the very start. I would look at him and see complete purity in his eyes, "there he is" I would think to myself as I reconsider my opinions of love and marriage.
There are people in this world that will turn you off...make you change your mind and make you feel small. In fact, It will happen more than once. The amount of people who hurt you does not matter, what is important is the 1 person who stays.
