Falling

Now you know who are. You may or may not have experienced this, meet someone that caught your eye. Someone that you couldn't figure out. Someone that you have had a crush on that developed into to something bigger. Like LOVE?

Yes people the big L word! Love, it happens when you least expect it or when you don't really want it. But it calls to you like that last piece of cheesecake. Tempting you to go right ahead and just do it. You know how its like. To get the courage you need to ask that person out. The person you have been secretly admiring for days, weeks, months, years, (i think you get the point) just hoping she would say yes when you ask her out. Or hoping that the man would finally ask you out.

Even it would be a simple cup of coffee to a full blown night out on the town. But don't be afraid to take a chance. Taking chances in life is really worth it. You never know what to expect. That's the beauty of it. Like the famous saying from Forest Gump "Life's like a box of chocolates. you never know whatta gonna get" or my personal favorite "We are shaped and fashioned by what we love." That my blogger friends is from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Now you are thinking. Are there any hazards to falling in love with a coworker or even dating a coworker or even a close friend? Yes there is, you think what if it doesn't work out. Dating for months. Seeing each other on a daily basis. those awkward moments. It's a risk enough just stepping out of the house or even breathing the air now a days. But we still do it.

It's a risk that we all have to take and even make. Just to find out what will happen next. Is this the end of dating. Seeing or being with other people. A actual commitment. But the fear will be there no matter we see it or not. Is he or she right for me? Are we compatible enough? Will this person make me happy or will that person make me cry? Is there something more to his or her intentions? Is this person just after something that i have? What are their real motives? These are all basic questions that we tend to ask our selves, and end up driving us into a corner.

Is it fear of the uncertainty of the future? Its a scary thought. letting your defenses down and vulnerable. From past experiences you might have had, especially if you are a young woman. men chasing you around trying to get something, even expecting something from you. Its hard to fall in love. This even happens to guys. Wrong experience with a woman would shatter their whole perspective with women. Thinking that they are all same.

The only downside to falling in love is a couple of pounds gained. (something the gym would fix)
Wanting to drink all the time. (but lets face it. you like to drink a lot or occasionally anyway)
Feeling depressed (That's why you have really good friends)

But in the end of all that. We still try to find that one person. That makes us complete.
