It can get so easy to make an excuse as to why your relationship didn’t work. And honestly, that’s all we're ever trying to do to try and make sense of what happened.

But from someone who has said it was just a “right person, wrong time” situation, I know that it is just another excuse for why the relationship didn’t work.

There is no right time to fall in love.

Love is not something that has a time clock or schedule. Love is not something that if you go out looking for it, that you’re just going to find it.

Love is something that is magical. Love is something that truly can’t be tamed. The best kind of love is the love that finds you, not the other way around.

I know sometimes you just have to come up with something for as why the relationship didn’t work or even won’t work. But “right person, wrong time” isn’t it.

If you truly wanted the relationship to work, you would have done everything possible to keep it alive and thriving.

Now I’m not saying that when old loves find themselves years later and wind up falling more in love than ever before and working out, isn’t a “right person, wrong time” situation.

Because those two have had time to grow and bloom without the other person there. And after it all, they still find each other and still loved one another.

However, I am saying that when you use the excuse to explain why you and your high school love had to break things off because you feel like things just can’t work, then that absolutely is just trying to find an excuse to make you feel better as to why it didn’t work.

If two people can love each other so strongly and believe in their love so much they can defy the odds. It's just all about the amount of effort you're willing to put into the relationship.

If you believe that you have met the person you think you are meant to be with, then be with them!

But if you decide to break things off with someone you love because you feel like you two are just at two different times in life, I'm sure there are more reasons as to why the relationship couldn't work than just "right person, wrong time."
