Growing up,you get the idea that love is this wonderful thing that happens to you. Remember the fairy tales we used to read about the beautiful princess and the handsome prince? Those are books that I have come to absolutely loathe due to the mere fact that they are all lies!
Out here in the real world, people are just dealing with pain, heartache, disappointments, regret, hate, jelousy...this list can go on till tomorrow coz so many emotions come out especially when someone has been betrayed... which happens more times than we would like.
Men today are likened to dogs while their female counterparts...bitches. and all in the name of what?They just can't be satisfied with having one partner. In this day and age infidelity is the order of the day.Men cheating on their wives with that cute secretary from the office, women cheating on their husbands with the houseboy or the milkman...it can be anyone!!
The amazing part is that nobody cares.Whether they get caught or not it doesnt really matter coz at the end of the day they have already had their fun. Which then causes me to ask this question - which by the way I think cannot possibly have a positive answer- Does love really exist?? I mean you see couples get married and think they will live happily ever after only to hear 3years down the line that they are seperated or divorced or one killed the other in the dead of night...and all you can ask yourself is what happened?they seemed so much in love!
Wouldnt it be nice if marriages these days lasted as long as those of our forefathers....but then again isnt that kind of boring? Now try to understand where am coming from...today people have to constantly feel they are being entertained otherwise they get bored and thats one of the reasons why infidelity seems like the next best thing if you are bored in a relationship, once you start, there's no turning back.
I know am diverting abit from what I had set out to discuss but bare with me because you know what, I think love is simply overated. But one thing I wonder is this why is it that we get hurt more than enough times but we still continue to believe that maybe just maybe we will find love with the next guy that takes a second glance at us.
So before you get yourself into another meaningless relationship ask yourself whether the hurt is really worth the effort...coz at the end of the day, chances are that you will be drowning your sorrows alone once you have found out that you were the other woman or man!But remember, at the end of the day, the heart wants what it wants!!
