Everyone always complains about how badly they want someone to come into their life and stay. We want a significant other; someone who is there for you whenever you need and someone who genuinely makes you smile when no one else can.
What happens when you meet someone who does all of things, but the timing isn’t right. We live in different towns, or they’re studying abroad for the next semester and we won’t be able to visit each other. What happens then? Timing unfortunately is everything and it sucks immensely.
Our lives at this point in our life are so hectic. We have school, or work, or both. We have friends from home and from our new school, that probably are all extremely different. How do we make things work with someone who is three hours away? Do we try or do we give up? Everyone always says, “Oh they’ll break up once at school” or “it’s just a summer fling no way it will last when the month ends”. So do we just take everyone’s word for it and give up on something that is so hard to find. I personally do not think so.
We want and want and want for someone to come into our lives, and once we have it, we diminish it as if everything we hoped for meant nothing anymore. Why do we do this to ourselves? Because we want to get stood up by the frat boy yet again? Or so we can be “single” and “able to do whatever we want”? If someone comes into your life, you have to try and make it work. Giving up brings you back to square one.
Learn how to fight against the odds and stop settling for things that are convenient and easy.
