"I don't have a boyfriend... I don't even have a kind of a boyfriend. I don't even have someone that I'm texting that's a guy that might someday be my boyfriend. There is like nothing going on right now."
"You have to be okay with it because like if you're the girl that needs a boyfriend and then once she loses that boyfriend, needs to replace it with a different boyfriend it's just this constant stream of boyfriends all the time and I don't feel like I ever want to be that girl. I want to be the girl who like when she falls in love it's like a big deal and it's a rare thing, I guess."
Having one boyfriend after the next is like all these different love songs and break up songs that all mean the same thing. There's this certain pattern and cycle that people get caught in. They somehow can't get out because it's become the norm for them. And it's all wrong.
When I was about 13 years old, I heard this analogy that really stuck on me 'til this day:
Someone who goes from one relationship to another relationship is like a piece of tape sticking to many different surfaces but in the end, it will lose it's adhesiveness. What will the tape have left when it finally wants to stick to something permanently? What will this person have left when he or she finally just wants to be with this one person?
There are people who give so much of themselves in a relationship and then once they are cut off, broken off from the relationship, they don't have anything left to give but pieces from a broken heart to the next guy.
Guard your heart.
And never lose sight of what love really is.
Love is patient...
