A while ago I wrote on how difficult it was to say good-bye to my loving partner because of his lack of ambition, amongst other things. I remember how uncertain I was, how afraid of never finding someone quite like him again, of never having anyone love me the way he did.
My new love isn’t quite love yet, and I’d be lying if I said otherwise. But it’s on the right path, and I found someone who isn’t afraid of love when it does come. I try hard not to throw myself in this relationship, but I must say I can actually see a future with this new guy. He treats me like a princess, and who is to tell me it’s wrong to want to be treated like one? It is nice to be with someone who isn’t ashamed of wanting me, of needing me all the time. It’s good to be taken care of, after I spent so many years taking care of everyone but me.
He makes me want to live, want to drive for days just to rest in his arms. He makes me want to love again. So even though everyone tells me to be careful, I’m jumping in this time; because being too careful is what got me in trouble in my past relationships, and because holding back love sucks. So for all of you out there who were once scared of moving on and never finding love again, hear this: the world is so full of amazing people, that it is only logical that you’ll find someone just as good—or even better. As it turns out, I don’t need to be satisfied with love alone. Not when I can get so much more.
