Your friends’ idea of what love is will potentially screw up your love life.

It is important that you hang out with people much like yourself if you want to experience something. The reason for this is that your friends want what is best for you, but their definition of “the best” may vary quite a bit from yours.

For instance, if you want to experience “True love,” your friends may define it as “brotherly love,” “mother’s love,” or “to find someone who will take care of you like you were a baby, giving you the unconditional love that allows you to act like a bratty little child,”  or as the way I define it “a state of pure intellectual, sexual, and romantic awe at the other; the mutual joy of each other’s existence.” Other definitions may exist, but you can see how different they can be. Some people think a true love story MUST contain drama and heartbreak, but others don’t share that notion. People who avoid drama and roller coaster emotions may, then, have to wait for a long time until their soulmates give up on that notion that you’ll ever experience true love because to them, if you’re not crying your eyes out every night, going to bed because “He or she doesn’t love you,” or some other bs reason, they think you’re “not serious about this yet” and keep you waiting. And even knowing that may not be enough to bring tears to your eye, and instead, you will just feel angry or mildly sad. This may then be interpreted as “displeasure of the dramatic arch,” and they try to make matters worse for you so you’ll get to experience a bigger drama.

However, it all will wind up coming out as exactly what you wished for, ironically and annoyingly. There’s always something else that enabled what happened to happen – required it even. Deep down, you wanted to achieve… what? Experience what? Test what?
