You reblogged lifepurposes:
“Have
you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It
opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone
can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you
build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one
stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into
your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it.
They did something dumb one day, like smile at you, and then your life
isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats
you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like
‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working
its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just
in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real
gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”
