I Am In Love

I've actually never been in love. Don't really think it exists especially in today's society. I think people confuse love with lust. Today people date for a month and suddenly they're in love. Few months later they're with someone else and they love that person. I don't want something temporary. I want that unconditional kind of love no matter what the circumstances are. Very rare though today. I think I have a better chance meeting the pope or winning the lottery than finding someone genuine who loves me unconditionally.

I understand why you feel the way you do. I think it is a shame that people don’t value relationships and the work it takes to be in a healthy one. Many times they confuse their infatuation for love. I think the best time is after the initial honeymoon phase, when you settle in, and things are comfortable and happen more effortlessly. Do not give up. True love does still exist. Someone is out there for you, who wants the same things you do, and will love you unconditionally. Life works in mysterious ways. Until your special person enters your life, consider doing self care. Become the best, healthiest, most loving person you can be. Keep your heart open. It is worth the wait, and long line of painful relationships that bring you there. Never give up on love.
