“True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about but few have seen”-
Francois de La Rochefoucauld. ”
Like my friend Pearl would say, “To love is wahala;
to now stay in the love is another trouble on its
own.
” February, the season of love, brought about
different ways that some people show and are
shown love. Some are romantic, and others are just
catastrophic. A girl told me right before Valentine’s
that she knew for sure her boyfriend won’t be
spending Val’s with just her as there’s a long list of girls he has to make happy that day, but she really
didn’t mind as long as she git her fair share of time,
love and gifts; this got me wondering if the pain is
really worth it and also why we are so inept at truly
loving.
Then I realised, we are a social generation, love
nowadays is all about the thrill of the moment and
once the excitement fades and all we’re left with
are the mundane things, we go after the next
adventure, chasing the adrenaline rather than
investing in the relationship we already created.
We have become so bad at loving that the words
“even your boo get a boo” are now like a
relationship anthem making us so comfortable with
the no-matter-what-you-do-your-man-will-still-
cheat-on-you mentality. Did we forget how to love, or even worse, what
love really is? Here is a reminder, love is all about
the sacrifices and compromises we make
unconditionally, as there is always going to be
someone more beautiful/handsome, richer or more
successful than your partner and that’s where the strength of your love comes in, when you don’t let
the minor things faze and distract you from the
person you claim to love. Love is not fickle, it takes
more than one hurdle to bring it to its feet.
It
doesn’t come easy either because you have to
nourish and grow it. You have to be prepared to truly love, prepared for
the deep but peaceful silences after the movies and
parties,prepared to make memories and not just
spend time together, prepared to see the beauty in
predictability. Someone told me, “Love is loyalty, trust and
faithfulness.” As personal as love is, it is all about
staying true to your feelings. It definitely isn’t for
the fickle-hearted This thing called love is more than just a
convenience.
Get it right!
