On Breaking-Up

After each break up, we need some time to recuperate. We have our own special remedy to cure a broken soul. After ten years of dating, here I am ones again in the shadow of inevitable misery and lonesome. We all believe in the saying that love is a game. Now I can’t help but wonder if love is some kind of sports and living happily ever after is the winning goal, after a decade of non-stop relationships, if I am a player, what are my stats?

All of us refuse to imagine ourselves winding up being alone when we are old and wrinkly. We may love our single selves but deep down inside, we secretly want to have that special person giving us a good morning kiss every day. However, looking for that special person is like searching for a needle in a pile of hay. Relationships are exhausting and after all break-ups we swear off this feeling only to find ourselves risking another one.


Before any relationships begin, we always remind ourselves that we are smarter and wiser and things will be different from the previous one. However, at the end of it that’s the only time we will find out that everything remain exactly the same.

Now that I am in a very confusing limbo, I assessed my past and keep track of my score. If I am a player, I can consider myself as a season veteran in this sport. I have quite a number of hook ups and relationships but I haven’t hit the winning goal. Does that mean I have to stop from playing and just give up? What about the lesson learned? The feeling of love and be loved and the intimate moments and nerve-wracking orgasm? Isn’t it pain, a part of life cycle? Every emotions and feelings are part of being a person hence twinge and affection is inevitable.

So I say despite of the heartaches and the failure, we as human being, should not give up on love. We must be reminded that it might take a long and weary road before we hit the living happily ever after goal but that makes us a real person… a human being.
