I can tell that we are gonna be friends

We’ve all been in love. Or thought we were in love. Lost love. Loved again. I understand it feels different every time, because no love you have for one person can be the same as the next, because everyone is so different. But, when you have lost, and you feel something different…something you’ve never felt before…how do you know if that does or doesn’t mean something more? What I’m getting at is, when your ex dumped you, you thought you’d never love again and it hurt more than anything. You couldn’t imagine yourself with anyone else, or ever letting someone get to know you. Having sex with someone else seemed like the most disgusting thought ever. As time went on though, you found those feelings even stronger for someone else, and that horrible time you could pretend never even happened. Right? So, next time, when someone dumps you, and you have those same feelings, but even stronger, how do you know you will be ok again? What if this person was the person you are meant to be with? Will you end up with them if you do not fight for it? What if they haven’t realized that this is the right thing? What if they are your soul mate but you aren’t theirs? What if the games people play of not contacting each other, avoiding everything, doesn’t work? What if they don’t realize what they lost and come running back? How much time to you wait? Hold on to that great big love. What if it really does feel different this time, what if it is so different this time? Then what the fuck happens?! No one has any comforting kind words for THAT. Makes no sense to me.
