So, one of my biggest pet peeves (yes I said pet peeves), is when teenagers swear high and low that they are in love...that they would die for that person...that they can't live without eachother.
Now I'm not trying to be one of those grouchy old cat ladies who flip out because their great grandaughter has a 2 piece bathing suit, but seriously. The concept of love has been so badly twisted by society that not many people truly understand what it means to love someone else.
I walked a long hard road to understanding that I would never find the love, affection and meaning that I needed in a man. I've realized that even though so many people might roll their eyes at this, a woman should never NEED a man....you should never say or feel that you would die without him. Nope. I mean obviously God created us man and woman....and the relationship between a man and a woman is supposed to represent the relationship between Christ and the Church... but a woman should never exist for a man. It's idolatry....and sorry to say...but it is extremely disappointing...and frankly I know I was made for more than that.
Now if only some people would actually listen, but the sad thing is that even if the people to whom this whould apply actually read this.... they would be so totally convinced that they were in love with that person that they wouldn't think twice about a word I say on the matter. Oh the pride and ignorance of human beings, myself included.
