A Life Without Love

Updated: Jan 2, 2019

Do we believe that?

From the book Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur

There's a phrase "A life without love, isn't a life at all"and as silly as it may sound for a 24 year old to say, I can see why people firmly believe this. For someone who has been in love, and been completely infatuated with it, I can say that for me personally when your out of love and even as far away from the prospect of being in love as you can be...you can get to the point where you can feel like you aren't living. Not to sound too sad of course. Maybe a better way to put it, is not living life with 100%...does that make more sense?


I'm not saying I'd jump into any relationship just in the hope I find the thing we call love, I'm not that kind of person. If anything the truth is that I'm extremely reserved right now. It would be nice to open up to just one person again. To have one person that knows all your inner most thoughts. That's not to say I'm closed off to everyone. To the people closest to me, they know a lot, maybe even some stuff that no one should know...but then if you looked deeper it could be seen as if palming them off with completely useless facts to throw them off the scent of what is really going on in my head or even life.


I'd like to think that I'm seen on the outside as a woman who is desired but can't really be caught or tied down, like an unattainable woman of mystery. When in reality I am probably just seen as stuck up and rude or something else along them lines. The truth is I'm just waiting for something amazing to come along, or for the right one to work their way in...someone to take a chance on I guess (wow...sounding like a Disney princess right now). With all that said, I'm actually okay with not having that at the moment. The need for a relationship isn't strong enough for me to just dive into the first thing I find. Not to mention realistically there's other things I need to prioritise first.


This is just something I've been thinking about, and like I said not having someone to share your inner thoughts with sometimes sucks. I've even considered changing this blog into more of a diary when I don't have much else to write about. After all what's most important when writing a diary? Honesty. And that I can do.
