Maybe I’m just a weirdo, but I don’t believe in romantic love.

..and I’m not saying this because I’ve had bad experiences. I just..don’t believe in it. Growing up, I always wanted to know what it’s like to be in love. I wanted to feel my heart pound harder when I saw him/her. I wanted to be in a state of pure bliss with them. I thought falling in love would be just like the disney movies: Meet someone, fall in love, have a problem, get over the problem, live happily ever after until you die.

It’s not like that though.

Through years of being a hopeless romantic and observing people in relationships all I’ve seen is burdens, heartbreak and boredom.Not just in teenage relationships, but also couples in their 60’s. Humans are seasons, they come and leave. They change. They aren’t built to stay with one person. We shouldn’t see ourselves as these mythical, majestic creatures, we’re just humans. Bones, muscle, skin and organs. Humans aren’t built to pick someone and stay with them. History and media tell us that there’s someone out there that matches us. If humans change on a daily basis, how can there be such a person? I refuse to believe in it. I’d rather focus on being true to myself than pretending to be in love.
