A Connection


I used to think that getting to know someone is more of a fulfilling experience when both parties are complete strangers. Then we can spend hours, days, months, and years learning about each other. But it can only be that way if we have chemistry, that undeniably "spark", that energizing "click" when we can't get enough of each other.

And then there are people who you immediately feel something for from the moment your eyes meet. I know it sounds like a Hollywood love story, but it really does happen. And when you are with this boy/girl everything feels right, you're always smiling and you love every single story he tells you and even the way he phrases his words you find adorable. Despite this strong attraction, everything around you tells you - it's not meant to be, you simply can't be together. Sadly this love story has a tragic ending and is the hardest to overcome, because we think we create our own destinies, we think that love is greater than all things, we think that someday we'll meet again and start from where we left off.  

With someone you known forever, you can't really imagine a life without this person. Friendship means the world to me, so crossing that line would put everything at risk, but when I'm 40 years old and if we're still single, should we just get hitched and spend our lives together? Will we be able to forgive each other for not being together sooner? Can we forgive each other for the years of being with the wrong people? I don't think the past defines who a person is, but it's not as simple to overlook the past when you want to be the only person in his heart. 
If love was a storybook we'd meet on the very first page <3
And every page after the first would only get more interesting and difficult to stop reading, because we would be too excited about what the future has in store for us. 

Sometimes I fear that maybe I'm too much of an idealist, that these stories will never come to life, that maybe two people weren't meant to fit like a puzzle piece, and maybe compromising is the only solution to our misery. 

I'm a lover of life, I feel at peace when I'm exploring, I feel the most adrenaline when I take a leap of faith, I feel the most loved when someone genuinely enjoys my company - not because I want to feel needed, but because he can't wait to take me on an adventure. 

To my readers <3,
My friend gave me the perfect advice - Just ask yourself two things, Is he worth it and will this change be good for you?
