The Heart of the Matter

What is it about the heart that desires the things we can't have? Better yet, someone we dream to have a future with but yet we cannot have them? 
It happens to us all the time. No matter if the signs tell us that its not meant to be, we still want it and will do almost anything to get it. Seriously. Have you ever met someone you really liked and connected with very well, did whatever you could to become friends with that person and even confessed how much you like them? However, they never reciprocate your feelings. They express no signs of interest in you at all but you believe that if you stick it out, that person will eventually fall in love with you. But how long will you wait? A few weeks, a few months, years? Going out of your way to treat and spoil them in the best way possible just to get a relationship started. It may be crazy and it works....or it may be psychotic and a waste of time.

I've never been in love. Love can be blind, based on my observations. People that are so in love with someone that doesn't pay them half the attention are blinded by their emotions to see all the signs pointing to stop, detour, dead end, not for you or STOP BEING A DAMN IDIOT AND MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ONE!!!


Remember this saying: "You refuse what's good for you but the bad is what you go for"? I guess it's just human nature. Half the time, the ones you're trying to force some kind of relationship with are the ones that will end up hurting you. You put so much focus into chasing after something that isn't meant to be for them, all while missing out the one that would come along with the same emotions that would be returned. I know some people who would actually WAIT for a night of sex instead of giving to anybody or the one that really wants them. Sad, isn't it? You're SINGLE. You should be out having fun, not going on some obsessed trip for an unloving relationship. You're only making yourself miserable trying to force that kind of love you want instead of waiting out for the love you need to show up at your doorstep. Don't spend the rest of your life chasing waterfalls.....
