Looking for love? Why? Because you have this giant hole inside your chest, and you’ve tried to fill it with food, and clothes, and cars, and art, and it didn’t work, so now you figured that another person might do the trick.
Are you insane? Do you really think that people can cure you of loneliness? Loneliness has nothing to do with just being alone. Loneliness is about not liking your own company. And you can’t cure that simply by dragging someone else to your little circle of misery.
I’m not saying it won’t be fun. For a while. But the moment the person you have lured into your miserable little life, goes to the bathroom you are going to be right back where you started. Alone, and lonely, and aking. Waiting for them to come back. To love you. To admire you. To complete you. So, pretty soon you’ll demand that those bathroom breaks be as short as possible and that, my dear friend, is pretty much the single most pathetic thing a human being can do. So don’t do it.
Don’t go around begging for love just because you can’t feel it for yourself. Don’t dress up to make someone think you are beautiful if you don’t believe it yourself. Don’t go out on Saturday nights thinking that you’ll find the cure for your loneliness in a bar. It ain’t gonna happen.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against love itself, but the idea of begging for it, and twisting it into such terrible shapes simply makes me sick.
