Their Love Isn't Enough

A few hours back I got about to reading one of my friends blogs. There was this quote she had mentioned on a left column.

The quote talked about what the author hadn’t learned in school and what they would never teach. About learning to cope up with falling in love and falling out of it.

That got me wondering, is that something that could be taught by someone? You fall in love, you think you’re doing everything right and that is what you want, even if it has to mean you have to fight with your best-friend who has already experienced that situation and knows better than to let you go through that. You overlook it because love does that to you, makes you feel like you could ride a raindrop or be/are a superhero who has everything going right for them. Even Batman couldn’t cope up with the loss of his parents, even Spiderman didn’t know how to cope up with Mary Jane slutting around. What then?

When you’re falling out of love and you’re hurting more than you’ve ever felt in your life, maybe more than you ever will, who teaches you how to cope up with that? Every word that your best friends utters in references to that with the sole intention of comforting you still doesn’t seem enough to believe that they understand exactly what you’re going through. You think what you experience is un-paralleled in this and every parallel universe you know of. What then?

Some people could have got out of a 3 year relationship and find it perfectly fine to find a new college and ‘fall in love with someone else’. There are some who will get out of a 2 year relationship and want to murder the other person. Then there are those who will get out of a 1 and a half year relationship, want to move onto someone else but want to murder the ex nevertheless.

Fresh out of a relationship gone bad, we all have our ways of coping up with the aftermath of the break-up by how you feel about it. You could hate the persons guts and not want to be with anyone else after that because then you know you’ve truly been taken care of, cared & loved quite royally. No-other person who enters into your now shattered life will be able to take that persons place, nothing they say could prove or make you wanna think otherwise. It’s scary really, because sometimes, if you let another person in and give them a chance, it could amaze you and make you feel like you were living under a rock all this while, so I’ve been told.

Maybe one day I’ll have that someone too, maybe I won’t have to put in too much effort into finding her, maybe she will happen 10 relationships down the line, maybe she’s sitting next to me, maybe she’s the one playing on my head right now. Maybe.
