The Painful Truth We Hate About Love by king32(m): 5:39pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
It has been said that “one of the most painful things in life is to watch the person you love love someone else”. While I agree with this, I don’t totally agree with it as it is devoid of some facts and reasons why it is painful. It is not because you cannot have that person you love that is the most painful (even though that hurts), the pain resides in who the subject of your love decides to love and the reason you think the person is in love. Most times, we assume that we are the best person for the person we are in love with or we assume that that person cannot get a better deal from someone else hence we tell ourselves that no one else can love or care for that person the way or even close to the way we do. We assume that it is because that person has not seen certain qualities about us and we dig in and show qualities we think will attract that person (yes we are vain like that) and we still go through that pain of being rejected and desperation for our fantacies to be fulfilled but the greatest shock comes when we hear the person loves someone else. At this point, all our insecurities are exposed. Jealousy, anger, disappointment, discontentment and frustration comes with a sudden rush of blood to the head. If this is where the news stops for you, you are lucky. This is the point people call the most painful thing about love. But imagine if the person the subject of your live is your close friend, maybe your sibling. You think that’s painful right? It is obviously more painful than being rejected. But imagine if the person is someone you are “better” than. Your student, your younger brother, your staff. Now that is pain. Even though you understand that there is little you can do to change the situation, you will not admit that you lost someone you love to someone you are better that, you will rather turn into some sort of monster. You sulk, you keep your anger and you ignore your hurt. You try to push the pain away. If the person is someone you consider better, you might be willing to accept the pain; but someone you are better than? When it comes to love, one of the hardest things is admitting that you lost the person you love to someone you are better than. Know more about love here @ http://Nairasky.ML |
