On Why Not To Love

In life there's love and loss.
Somethings you feel deeply and some things you don't feel at all. The question of Love has tormented me deeply. How can people write sonnets about a feeling that has eluded me completely. When they sing about missing the "One that got away" I don't have that one. All I have is the ice cream I could't eat because I was so full. 

I see the music videos and in the backseat of my Uber, I want to stare out the window feeling sorry for myself but I don't. Yeah, sure, the song's sad but I am not. How does another person even have the power to make you feel sorry for yourself? Why would you give someone that power? When people cry over lost love, maybe they were stupid to love in the first place. Blinded by love, hoping for something better, sacrificing, trusting - honey, stop right there. You are just being DELUSIONAL. How does one go from 'madly in love' to 'madly in love with someone else' overnight?
I have heard way tooooo many sob stories to not find a pattern.
I have two very simple answers for the two types of women out there : 

1. Fighting in a Relationship Kind - Spare yourself the grief and break up already before you find out he cheated. If you're fighting that much, you know it's not gonna work out. IF you are in a LDR (long distance relationship), you know they don't work right? They only last for as long as it takes for one of them to find a replacement. By some miracle if your LDR is serious, then a very valuable pointer for you - Don't ever let your GF/BF have a best friend of the opposite gender in the other city. They will have moments, they would create memories and then they will end up screwing. END IT. 

2. Crushing on Someone Kind - To all my BFFs, I am so done with your BS. Yes, I am happy if there's a cute guy in your office but no, I do not want to look at his Instagram for the next 109356 days! Yes, we will stalk him once because, duh! See ladies, when you crush on a guy, it's obvious. If he isn't responding then maybe it is time you get a hint and move ON. I want to save you from a heartbreak from a relationship that existed purely in your mind. Those tight tees and hair flips aren't helping. Just watch the movie "He's just not that into you," and you'll realize that he's just not that into you.

Get out of there ladies with your dignity intact. Have crushes, fall in lust and blah blah. Stop obsessing. If you want to obsess, there are new Boots you can look at or Brownies. 


That's all for the day!

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to...

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo
