I can’t help but believe that love is just not for some people.
I have seen people fall in love and endured everything through time. But I have seen people fall out of love too.. some of them lasts for a couple of years.. and some, just after a couple of days. It’s tricky, and I know you’d agree that love, no matter how much you work on it.. will always be unpredictable.
I have met Jane last week, and she told me stories about her young self.. and how she let a lot of love pass her by. She was pretty.. still is actually, even at her old age of 46.. She told me tales about how many suitors used to lined up for her attention.. how her 2nd boyfriend brought her in a cheap hotel, and how nervous she was that day.. she told me about Selmo, and his love for her that she turned down because she can’t learn to love him back. She said, Selmo was not easily discouraged and tried again many times.. but still she wasn’t able to love him back. She told me how much she regret letting him go.. and how she can still hear his words after so many years, “I don’t know how to move on from you, Jane. I do not even know if I could still love someone else after you.” I saw Jane took a deep sigh. And across the table, I saw how pain crossed her eyes before saying.. “He’s married now. 3 kids.”
Jane, like almost every girl I know, dreamt of happy endings too.. of loving someone who loves her. She prayed for it to come true and it didn’t. But maybe, love is not for her.. and I can’t help but think that maybe.. love is not for me too.
