- " Being single is the best.
But everyone wants to fall in love."

How true this is.

I read this somewhere posted by a random user on a forum, and I was like, yeah.

I would feel contented being single too. But somehow, a part of me just wants to be in a relationship, and to feel wanted, and to feel... loved.

I know, having my family and friends are enough, really.

I love spending quality time with my family and would not give up anything in the world for them.

My best friend understands me the most and I'm able to talk to her about anything.

But, having a boyfriend... is like a different thing.

Suddenly, you take someone whom you've barely known for less than than half the lifetime you've spent with your family, and you start to love him/her almost equivalent to how you love your family.

Of course, in a relationship there are always ups and downs.

Falling in love is easy, but staying in love is hard. It actually takes a lot of time to understand each other and a lot of work to give in to each other at times.

I'm contented being with my boyfriend now, but I do not know if things will change in the future or whatsoever.

We've been together for close to 11 months.

It's too early to think about the future, and I hate how some couples say that they are going to get married to each other 10 years later and they break up before 6 months has passed.

It's just,
.

... hello.

Maybe, this person might be suitable for you now but how do you know in the future?

I would rather not give or take a promise, it just stresses things up and prepares you all for what is to come or might not be. I would just like to enjoy things as they are now, and come what may.

If you feel you've understood each other enough and are prepared for the bigger thing that will come in the future, then go ahead and take up the challenge and live a very satisfied life.

When She Loved Me by Sarah McLachlan

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful

Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart

And when she was sad, I was there to dry her tears

And when she was happy, so was I, when she loved me.


Through the summer and the fall, we had each other, that was all

Just she and I together, like it was meant to be

And when she was lonely, I was there to comfort her

And I knew that she loved me


So the years went by, I stayed the same

And she began to drift away, I was left alone

Still I waited for the day, when she’d say "I will always love you."


Lonely and forgotten, never thought she’d look my way,

She smiled at me and held me, just like she used to do,

Like she loved me, when she loved me

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful,

Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart

When she loved me.

I will never forget this song.

It was recited to me by my ex-boyfriend after we broke up.

What made it even more sad was that there was nothing we could do about the break up.

Somehow, songs like these just leave an impending memory on you even after that person has left you. It doesn't help that the singer has a wonderful voice.

Although I do not love him anymore and I can't believe I even forgot how he looks like (although they say you are not supposed to forget your first romance, I think this is nonsense) its like, I can still remember how he sounded like when he sang this song.

I cracked down in my room and just cried for some time, alone.

I can't remember what he looks like or how he's doing now but I remember vaguely that he was very skinny. And I don't like skinny guys though, ahhh wondering what was I doing man.

Am I destined to be with skinny guys forever, seriously. o_____o

Anyway, thinking about it now sure makes me feel a little warm and fuzzy feeling inside, instead. I wonder why.

I think this is a wonderful song, though. I will sing it to my child in the future and tell her the story of my first boyfriend.

Ah, the bliss of the first rush of love.

Being in love can both be wonderful and wretched at the same time. 0 Comments
