Expiry Date

*This post is not about me*

It's really a shame how every relationship has an expiry date.

Recently I found out 2 of my friends (both girls) broke up with their boyfriends. I feel sorry for them because both couples have been together for at least 2 years, and it's considered as 2 of the longest relationships among all my high school mates. Everyone else is either still single (like me!) or in a new relationship.

I can't imagine how they are feeling now. One ended the relationship because the guy just stopped loving her, while the other one I'm not sure why it ended because she's abroad now. Poor girl went over there just to be with her bf, so now that it's over I don't know if she will continue studying there.

These couples were simply mad about each other during better times. Sometimes when I see them getting all lovey and PDA-ing during meet ups I just feel warm and filled with hope. Who would have known that even the strong relationships break. This proves that nothing lasts forever, no matter how much you genuinely loved that person at one point. Because hearts change in time. Feelings fade. You can say that won't happen, but really do you think you can stop it when it happens? It comes almost without warning.

The worst thing is when you stop loving someone, and can't turn back. Doesn't matter if you feel sorry for your partner because he still loves you. Once it's lost, it can't be returned. You could pretend, but it won't be the same. I'm not pessimistic, just stating what I have observed and experienced.

Maybe this is why I'm still single. Just the thought of all the trouble and pain of being in one. And then having it end just like that. I don't want to break anyone's heart. I don't want my heart to be broken. Childish right. I wish I could love someone unconditionally forever, but I'm afraid that won't happen.

There's a limit to how much I can give and take. I suck at this.

Anyone out there who thinks they can love another person forever and always?
I need hope :)

    Don't think any further, just start a relationship and let it grow from there...

    Well sometimes seeing ppl's relationship looking so strong, but I guess it's just on the outside? Maybe among both of them, there's loads of problem that outsiders wouldn't know @.@

    Anyways, ditto to CX's comment :)!

    @CX: Actually that sounds like a plan. Maybe I'm over thinking. Now if only I have a man hahaha... Where are all the fish in the sea?? :P

    @alex: Thanks for dropping by! :)
    Perhaps you are right. I would imagine every relationship has flaws and cracks, no matter how close a couple may seem to others..

    They are out there. Probably due to the recent Tsunami, they were washed ashore to somewhere else...

    I think that shows that you actually can love someone. Whenever I see something like that, I just get very annoyed and roll my eyes. And to be honest, I don't think anyone can love someone forever. Or whether that love will remain unchanged. But yeah, there are people who manage to do that. They're just lucky I guess. Hope you find your 'fish'. Haha. Coz you do seem like you can love someone. Then again, I prolly shouldn't judge a person from a single blog post.

    I wonder if have watched the movie, 'Love of Siam'? It depicts very nicely what is love and the reason we love despite the potential hurt.

    @A: haha the thing is, I'm completely fine when I see other people in love, but when it comes to myself, I perceive things differently. I'm twisted.. LOL

    @Pikey: long time no see! Nope, haven't watched it yet.. but sounds interesting.. maybe i'll look it up some day :)
