So one thing I'm learning right now is that you cannot control how you "feel" about other people. It drives me crazy. I can't figure out what it is I want right now. It's really frustrating, ya know, to leave someone hanging like that, not calling them for almost two weeks now because you want to get your head together. My head is telling me not right now. My heart is telling me, it probably would be worth it. I don't know. I could be in denial or I could just really want my space, which I have been getting. Then someone new has to come into the picture. WTF...so then I feel stupid. There were never any ties between us so it is not like I have any cords to cut or anything. NOTHING happened. But this guy is fun, a breath of fresh air. He's crazy, not exactly my type but he's awesome. Somewhere down the line, someone's going to get hurt. I have a feeling it will be me hurting someone else and I don't want to do that because I've been in that position and it's most likely going to come back and bite me in the buttocks. But emotions are emotions. Emotions are not controllable. I can't let the opinions of others influence me right now, as hard as it is, I know that somehow I'll be swayed by the opinion of someone. Come on, realistically, everyone's opinion is influenced by another, its like human nature. I can say that I'm going to follow my own, when realistically, my its been influenced by someone I trust. I trust the people that know me better than I know myself at times. Like my best friends for example. This is one that I need to figure out on my own. I have to figure out what I want but at the same time not force it on myself, make sure this IS what I am feeling. Right? Right. Okay...
Well this is for Megan. You totally made me think of it because one of your posts made me think of it...This is from Cosmo from like last year.
6 Surprising Discoveries About Love
1. There is no such thing as The ONE.
2. Love at first sight does exist.
3. It pays to keep a guy at an arm's length.
4. Love is not an emotion. (Yep, I was surprised, too.)
5. BEING IN LOVE IS AN ADDICTION.
(This is the little bit that was written about it.) When Fisher asked people to look at pics of their passion partners, the part of the brain associated with addiction was activated, a surge of dopamine was released, and they felt an instant rush of euphoria, just as ifthey had taken a drug. That's why the ecstasy that accompanies love can make us crave the company of our sweetheart.
So I was definitely shocked by this one...
6. Men fall in love faster than women.
When I think about it though, I can kinda see it. Guys get so like wrapped up in girls sometimes, its like cutekindanot but creepy.
And how was your day?
