I've been wondering recently. Why are people afraid to fall in love? There are so many reasons why people don't fall in love.
My auntie is nearing the age of 50 and though she continues to ask me to look for a boyfriend for her. She still has not settled down and gotten herself a boyfriend let alone a husband. So, does this mean that she's afraid of falling in love? Or is she trying to avoid love altogether?
Why do people fall in love in the first place? Essentially they're setting themselves up to be hurt. They are setting themselves up to have a broken heart. They knowingly endanger their minds and hearts and bodies, and yet take the risk of falling in love. Why?
So many tears are spent caring for someone...and sometimes they don't even care about you back?
Why do girls and even some guys fall in love with someone, and think that they're happy with them then some how fate intervenes and they run on tough times. After piecing the remains of their relationship, they pick up and continue on. Sometimes this works out of course, and people remain happily in love. But then what about those who stick to the people who hurt them, trying to make it work, but then fate comes in again and gives him or her true happiness. And that happiness is different from the person they're with. What can they do? Are those people just afraid to take happiness and be happy? Or are they futility trying to keep going and stick together?
Why is it when people find happiness they become cowards and don't grasp it completely or at all for themselves?
Why do people take other people for granted?
Why do people make their so called loved ones cry?
Why do people tell other people they care about them but treat them horribly?
Why is it that people still keep going when the relationship has all but faded completely?
My mind is balancing on two completely different spectrums. There is loyalty on one, and happiness on the other. I'm trying to understand the circumstances where people would be pushed to this feeling. To have their conscious on two different ends. Loyalty and Happiness aren't always on the same side. Love and Happiness isn't always on the same side. Nothing seems to be. Most people seem to associate things like that together like they're grouped together for a reason, when that's far from the truth. Nothing seems to be able to be grouped perfectly into a group without it's exceptions.
How can someone think that another person is perfect for them when the other person thinks that they aren't perfect enough for the first? What is the definition of perfect for anyone? Obviously they have to be very different things.
How and why are people strong enough to get up from being hurt only to fall in love again and get themselves hurt? Why do they keep going? What keeps them going? Is it the need to be secure? Is it the need to feel loved? Is it the need to have someone hold them and make them feel safe? Is it the need to find someone to talk to? Is it the need to feel like they have someone who they can spend the rest of their life with? Is there even really that perfect someone out there for everyone?
Do people now a days ever really consider thinking about waiting for love to find them? Is there anyone in the world who waits anymore? Who doesn't try to run after someone else? Trying to find the one for them? Is there anyone out there in the world who goes till the age of 30 to even fall in love completely? Is there anyone who takes it slow? Who doesn't rush into their relationship, trying to build a "house" on a shitty "foundation"? Does anyone really fall in love anymore?
As I continue to write this more questions about love continue to pop up in my head.
How much pain can person take from love? How much are they willing to suffer for love? If a person suffers for love, then is it really love? If a person cries over love, is it really love? What is love really? What are the guidelines? Rules? Regulations?
WHY DO PEOPLE HURT THE PEOPLE THAT THEY LOVE?
WHY DO PEOPLE HURT THE PEOPLE THEY SUPPOSIDLY LOVE?
Why do people die of heart break? Why do people think infatuation is love? What causes people to leave the ones that truly care about them over an infatuation? Why do people shun the people that were made for them?
What defines love?
Who knows for sure the person that they are with is the one that they're truly meant to be with?
Where does destiny really lead us?
