The truth about love
Monday, June 29, 2020Am I afraid of love?
Yes, I was.
I was afraid of being in a relationship because I've been burned so badly before.
I gave my everything in a 4 years relationship and it took the joy out of everything in life.
Always paranoid, always wondering when will be the next time I'd get hurt again.
Then, he came along and changed everything.
He showed me how love was done properly, and I started believing in it again.
The right man will love you... and your family and friends too.
Perhaps my idea of love has been warped. I was "taught" by my previous relationship to believe that to experience love, one should feel pain. I used to feel that way all the time. I wasn't used to being happy and loved.
This unhealthy, distorted notion of love has to go away.
He understood and he assured me.
He kept on giving me all the assurance I needed in the world to feel safe and happy, though I really don't know where his patience comes from. (?)
But he kept doing it anyway.
At times, he'd get a bit naggy but he always has my best interest at heart.
He was always nagging at me to get this done, to get that done -
but I know why. It's part of the plan for us to move forward together.
No one's going to get left behind.
I'm glad I have you.
He has experienced first-hand what a mess I can be, yet he chose to love me anyway.
He didn't just give up on me and walk away.
And I know that he'd do anything to keep me alive.
I love you.
