''Why are you still single? "
For few minutes I couldn't answer his question
I was lost!
Lost for words...
I wasn't expecting the question
I had to say something;
"I haven't found the love of my life'
I was right but it was not the main reason.
I asked myself,
Why?
"Love of my life?"
Really?
Hmmm!
What do I mean by that?
I coudn't even say.
I didn't understand myself.
Love?
What is LOVE?
I always ask this question, I get different answers but I haven't experienced it.
But,
What if I see the love of my life I claimed looking for but couldn't recognize him?
What if the love of my life is someone I know
What if there is nothing like 'love of my life'
What if...
I was confused,
What could be the cause of my being single?
There are many reasons though,
It doesn't bother me at first but since he asked the question, I have been wondering.
I don't go out!
I'm always indoor!
The few friends I have,
I don't contact them.
This is a boring life mehn
I don't reply my chats.
I don't call people.
I rarely receive calls.
I can't even hold a conversation.
I limit my male friends(friends? are they even my friends? Honestly, I can't really say, these are people I met online even the ones I had when I was in school, service and at work I don't contact them)
I don't want this boring life.
I am about to change that.
I am seriously working on it.
"Don't expect any man knocking on the door asking you to date him"
My sister once told me.
I need to be out there.
Why am I like this?
I wasn't like this few years ago.
I was the outgoing, friendly and fun type.
I have not been in a serious relationship, the only one I had was not so to say.
He said he loved me.
I wanted to see how it works.
How it feels like being in a relationship.
I went into the relationship with him.
I never wanted sex.
He said he was "okay" with that.
So we started 'dating' we spent time together.
He couldn't wait, he needed me closer enough(sexual) but all I wanted was to have a male friend I could trust, somebody that would be there always and keep each other's company.
He started messing up. I heard from different sources that he's always with different girls because I couldn't give him the sex he wanted he got it from them anyways.
I was a bit disappointed I had to walk out of the relationship. Yes! I ended it for good.
Though, I like him but it wasn't love.
Since then all the guys I have been meeting attempts to touch me, they want a taste of it.
What if the problem is the sex?
What if there is no guy who is ready to stay loyal
What if I can't find the one that will agree with me
What if...
Maybe I am the mean one
Maybe I am selfish
Maybe I am...
No,
I can say I am strong
Strong enough to stay
Stay and wait
Wait and remain focused
I pray I meet the right one for me when the time comes.
May God help me.
I know it has not been easy to stay and wait but one just have to. Don't always believe that all guys are the same. You can still go back to how you used to do, never you close your heart to love. You just have to give it a try again cos you surely need somebody and somebody needs you too. Open up!
