I hear your anger and frustration loud and clear. Everywhere you go, you see happy couples. It seems like you’re the only guy in the world who doesn’t have someone. Let’s go to the pub and have a brew; just you and me. Good riddance to women! Who needs ‘em! We’ll talk sports and politics and bore ourselves silly, because deep down, we know what we really want and need is love. Deep down, we know we’ll never give up, because to give up on love is to give up on life.
You talk about falling out of love. You fall out of boats, but you don’t fall out of love. You fall out of like. Like is that temporary thing: The feeling of newness, infatuation, and sexual attraction. It feels great while it lasts, but when the negatives outweigh the positives, it’s over. And when it’s over, it feels like you fell out of a boat.
The real deal isn’t like that. When you get to the point where you’re not playing games with anyone on any level, when you get to the point where you are just living your life, doing what’s in you to do, that’s when the right person can finally see you and you can see them. That’s when you find the love that lasts a lifetime. That’s how it happened for me.
