Risky Business
I read Tonette's post about love being a risky business. I couldn't help but reflect upon her very words:
Over the years, when a woman allows herself to share her thoughts and feelings with someone, spends time in getting to know him and eventually allowing the friendship to grow into a more intimate level, she has already given a very special part of herself to this person. It is a gift that she has given unconditionally several times in her life. When she loses him for one reason or another, the tears take time to dry, so much so that when next time overtures of Love lurks outside her door, she has already built a wall around herself and learns to say, "hanggang diyan ka nalang muna" (that's as far as you can go). You just don't don't don't want to be involved with anybody after a series full of goodbyes. Fr. Jerry, its not that we are shutting off Love. It is because of Love that we learned to shut the door to avoid getting hurt again. One thing I do know is that the next time love comes knocking, I will take the risk and open the door, praying that this one will be for keeps. Until then, its status quo
I don't mean to get mushy and all when I should be shouting out Thank God It's Friday! but I fully share Ton's sentiments. And that's exactly what I feel. Some guys would actually not realize so many things about girls in effect hurting us, ladies, terribly. I don't mean to wage a war of the sexes but the thing is, there are those guys, I don't know if I they're just naive or what, who takes you to a ride and then when you realize you're enjoying it, they'll drop you and run like hell. I guess it probably reflects my poor judgment most of the time.
Well, still....I am just a girl who wants to love and be loved in return.
Thanks for visiting!
