Love Work

Love Work

Sometimes things don’t turn out the way you expect. Okay, not sometimes, more like all the time. But does that mean it wasn’t meant to be? Does that mean you made a mistake? Or does that mean nothing at all?

I look at the smiling faces on some couples and wonder if they go through the same hardship as me. Am I just an irregular case? Do I alone attract drama and disaster? I wonder if people have to try as hard as I do to maintain a love relationship. Maybe I’m not ready, maybe I don’t know what I want, or maybe I’m just with the wrong person. How would I know?

And I guess that’s the real kicker:

You just don’t know.

You rely on your own feelings and consider what everything means to you. It’s something that is entirely up to you and in that case, I guess no one can tell you it was right or wrong. It was just you.

I wonder if those same couples look at me and wonder why I’m staring at them. Do they think I’m judging them? Do they think I’m checking them out? Do they think I’m jealous? Do they even think about me at all? I can’t understand why we get so consumed with the work we put in love relationships, like its the epitome of all personal achievement. Maybe it is, because it is after all, just you.

And I thought work could be shared. But maybe in this case the measurement doesn’t qualify, it just adds up. We were put on this earth to work for the rest of our lives, so let’s get going with it.
