people in love

nutella snack and drink? this has to reach the Philippines. NOW. >8D

” Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. “

see. i knew it.

one night a friend of mine called and said he wanted to meet up. he was crying and i found out it’s about his girlfriend wanting to cool off with him because of her bigger other priorities: school and church. i sneaked out of the house just to console him. when we met he has already calmed, but he looked down.

anyhow after a few hours… they’ve made up already LOL. no breakup whatsoever. so, congrats and good luck! try to make it work? hmm.

WHAT I WOULD SAY: i’d let go of the girl. it’s one thing to be supportive of something you know is best for her. which is, to finish her studies FIRST. she wouldn’t come up with the cool off thing if she didn’t think you’re becoming a distraction. she’ll owe it to you one day, for allowing her to become the best she can be without you. then you can go back together and not let go, if your feelings remain intact that is. it’s not a matter of: if we really love each other we’ll make things work. come on, how old are you? 18? you haven’t seen enough of the world to decide to focus on just one thing. let her grow? it’s good enough that she knows her priorities right.

anyway. i’m just sayin. i wouldn’t count on my own words either haha.
