Am I broken, or is it the way the world today perceives love? Loving one person is an illusion, I don't know why I keep falling for it. My relationships always reach a point where I come to the realization that I don't want to spend the rest of my life with the person I'm dating, but I care too much about them to separate and then things spin out of control into a ****ing mess not unlike the one I'm in right now. Is this the way it is for everyone? Or is it that I'm just too weak to commit to one person? Is love a compromise where you release these doubts and accept a relationship for it's comforts and accept that your romanticized expectations of love don't really exist? If not, how do I tell someone that has become a part of my very existence that I can't continue loving them? By severing the relationship, I sever a part of myself.
A part that brings me intense pleasure as well as pain. I see this sort of love as a battle between desire. Someone told me that desire is intrinsically bad, and that it brings suffering. I have to say that it's true, but I fail to see the purpose in life without desire. Desire is life, when I neglect it, I feel empty. When relationships reach this point, is it because I am incapable of making a final commitment, or is it because it's really not the right person and that I should keep following my desire?
