Instructions for one who is not yet trapped in its shenanigans

Love like the symbol used to represent it, too neat and simple it seems but in really too messy and complicated.

It is overrated. Do not ever try and fall for it if you can. Do not fall into the whole mess. It is like falling into a bucket full of perfume, whose smell you can never get away. In the beginning it is good, you think you don’t have to care about your own body odor, limitations, flaws. But then slowly that pungent smell starts giving you a migraine. And then however many baths of getting over you commit to; you will still have that migraine, sometimes mild, sometimes painful, sometimes wrecking your heart.

Another thing, DO NOT THINK YOU COULD BE FRIENDS. It is impossible. It was something too beautiful, you think, it is never the same, you think. You cannot stay friends without either hurting themselves or yourself. Is that what you want? Every time they come to your town to meet you, they simply smile and you swooning again in, when you are trying to forget?

So, listen my fellow, crushed soul in that one-sided love over them; forget them as soon as you can, cut all ties, block them in all social media; forget how good of a person they are and stop yourself, when you just want a text back from them.

I myself have tried all of these things but have failed to do anything about it. The moment I see his number or his name(sometimes I have deleted his contact but I remember his number); my mind pops up like that hard surfaced corn pops into that soft, fluffy popcorn. And in no less than a single ring or less, I have made plans of meeting him.

That is why I say, do not ever fall in love, if you are gutless coward like me.
