I saw this quote the other day and I realized that love comes in all forms and sizes. That we all have multiple loves in our life. I think we aren't meant to just have one. That soulmates aren't a thing and that forever doesn't really happen.
"We fall in love with 3 people in our lifetime. Each one for a specific reason.
First Love: this love often happens at a young age. You eventually grow apart or call it quits over silly things. When you get older you may look back and think it wasn't love. But the truth is, it was. It was love for what you knew love to be. But remember there are different depths of love.
Second Love: the hard one. You get hurt in this one. This love teaches us a lesson and makes us stronger. This love includes great pain, lies, betrayal, abuse, drama, and damage. But this it the one where you grow. We realize what we love about love and what we don't love about love. Now we know the difference between good and bad humans. Now we become closed, careful, cautious, and considerate. We know exactly what we want and don't want.
Third Love: this one comes blindly. There is no warning. It creeps on you silently. You don't go looking for this love. It comes to you. You can put up ANY wall you want, but it will be broken down. You'll find yourself caring about that person without even trying. They look nothing like your usual crush types, but you get lost in their eyes daily. You see beauty in their imperfections. You hide nothing from them. You want marriage & family with them. You thank the universe for them. You truly love them. And it scares you."
After reading this, you might be thinking of your 3 loves. You might be recalling them and remembering your time with them all. The good, the bad, the ugly and maybe even the sweet. Each one made us grow in one way or another. Made us realize what we want and what we deserve. It could have always had us thinking what our 'type' is and what it isn't. Did you find someone outside of your 'norm'?
The one thing I know is that sometimes you meet someone, and everything lines up. The way they look, the way they laugh, the way they smile or how they smell. Yes, smell is a big one. Pheromones has a big part in chemistry, I think. Sometimes you meet that person, and you want nothing more but to be with them. You miss them when they are not around. You miss talking to them. You miss the way they would roll their eyes at you or touch you or even hug you. You find yourself craving their hug or waiting for them to text you to ask to meet up.
But life isn't like that. Life is complicated and messy. Life is unpredictable and it can change in a moment. Love can be a fairytale. It can show you so many things and open your eyes. But it can also tear your heart into many pieces. I guess the part of life that deals with love will always be messy. It will never be easy. And if it is, well then you are lucky.
I know who two of the three of my loves. The last one I don't think has come into my life. Maybe he has, but maybe he hasn't. If he has, then I don't think it will go anywhere. So, it's why I don't think he has entered my life. Sometimes we realize we are the person to help others find their love or help them keep their love.
Love is definitely messy and crazy. It's your choice if you want to be part of that world and find your 'forever' partner. Have you found your 3 loves?
