I am asking myself right now if I have already fallen in love, but my mind is screaming a big no. Like the inner me, cannot accept that the few relationships I had before were because I felt in love with them, which is why I committed to them, in denial self? Lol. I don't know; maybe it's the pride that's talking, lol. So I decided that I would just agree with my inner self that it was just simple admiration and nothing else. Whatever self, lol.

Let's talk about love today. It's the month of love, so we can talk about that today even though I am single right now and have no love life to flex. Still, I will talk about it. I have all the love for myself so I know love, haha. Or not? Lol. I think not, huhu.

First question: Does love come on suddenly or grow over time?

For me, it depends. because both can happen. Love comes on suddenly, without a word or what. You will just feel it when you find the one. or the one who will hurt you? Lol. Kidding aside, that's why love at first sight exits; do you believe in that?

I'm sure you believe in love at first sight. It will happen, and that might be the one who will change your world. Like you are just sipping your coffee, then all of a sudden the man of your dreams appears. It will be even better if that person feels the same as you.

I know it happens. I have already read a lot of real love stories about people who fell in love the first time they met. And those feelings can grow, and that's where marriage will enter. Those are for the lucky ones only and for those who are ready to commit.

On the other hand, for those people who just commit to each other because it is convenient for them, there is also a chance that love can grow over the duration of being together. It can grow over time, and that may result in a happy ending.

Well, that is only if they admit it to themselves and don't let pride get in their way. And you know, it will grow more and more because they can always see the good side in each other while being together. It will be better if they just admit it.

What are your keys to ensuring your relationship remains strong and healthy?

Based on my experience and the bad habits of mine that resulted in an ugly ending between me and my ex, I will just say the opposite of what I did during that time.

Trust and never Doubt

I always have this nagging feeling inside of me, and I know it is just my mind wreaking havoc in my head. And it's trying desperately to make me a nagging girlfriend. I have a trust issue, which is why our relationship is like hell. It is only good the first time.

I know I am to blame, and I just really can't help it. It is just all in my head. So I promise that if ever I commit myself again to someone, I will never doubt him and will put all of my trust in him so that our relationship will be much stronger and healthier.

Communication is the key.

Another is that instead of a silent war, I will initiate a talk to resolve whatever problem we have. If we have a misunderstanding, I will make sure that the day does not end without us talking about it. And instead of keeping all the pain to myself, I will talk it out to know the cause of it. For a healthy relationship.

Love is really mysterious. Anything can happen. Even those things that we thought would never happen can happen to someone. I mean, nothing is impossible to love, right? It's hard to find the real meaning of it but we can still love.
