As a girl, I am constantly labeled as emotional, especially when it comes to guys. But I never understood this— I never fell for guys easily or got emotionally attached. I always kind of thought I was weird for that, but now, as I grow older, I am realizing it's normal and we're all different despite gender stereotypes.
I am 20 years old and as a college student, most conversations revolve around love and boys. But as I sit there and listen to stories of love, I don't recognize similarities in my life. It's the look in their eyes and the hum in their voice as they tell these stories that show the passion. I've always kind of felt left out that I didn't have that high school sweetheart or that guy that I loved so much that I would do anything for.
I always remember everyone saying with the right person, you know. I didn't realize how true that was till now. It took me a while to figure this out because, to me, it seems like everyone is in love and I always wondered how it was so easy. There are people in life that I love and I would do anything for, so I know it's possible it just takes time. I have never been in love, but that's okay.
I've yelled at a boy, punched a boy, and laughed with a boy but I've never told a boy that I loved him and meant it. Now I know that it's okay that I haven't because once it feels right, I'll know I'll be able to say it and mean it.
For those who are wondering why am I not a relationship person, it's not the end of the world. It's because you are who you are and need to find that person that fits in with you and your needs.
