Confessions Of A Hopeless Romantic

I woke up this morning thinking about love and partnership. How simple and beautiful it is when done with the right person who shares similar values with you. Someone who realizes that love language is of utmost importance and is willing to put in the effort. Even when and if they don’t get it right all the time, but at least they are trying. It’s the thought that counts right?

How is it that love is such a simple thing yet most of us find it so difficult to express? How is it that all of us crave pure love yet we don’t act right when given the chance to be with a genuine person? I wonder what makes it so difficult to maintain a healthy romantic relationship.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not lonely, however I do crave love in its purest form.

A love where we both make sacrifices for each other.

A love where we both understand each other’s love language.

A love where we both act right.

A love where we both feel seen, heard, and loved. I say feel because just because you love someone doesn’t mean they feel loved by you.

A love where we both communicate honestly.

A love where we’re both intentional about each other.

A love where we’re both happy individually and together.

A love where we both honor and respect each other’s boundaries.

A love where our words and actions align.

A love where we’re both sure about each other.

A love where we both prioritize each other.

A love that’s not selfish.

A love that compromises healthily.

A love where we both feel safe.

A love where we don’t have to second guess ourselves.

A love not tainted by any of us in the relationship.

A love where God is in our midst.

Besides everything we see on social media and in the movies, I just crave a healthy love where our foundation is solid. A love that’s healthy on the inside and not just focused on looking good externally.

If you happen to have found your soulmate, please direct the rest, they sell them on amazon?

Until we all meet our better halves, we chin up and read Isaiah 41:10.
