Eat, Pray, Fall

If someone tells me the road leads to a dead end, i will just opt not to walk on it. Whats the point? Yet, I still pursue someone knowing clearly it wouldn't' go anywhere because that person may or may not feel the same way about me..really is it worth it?

When I heard something I didn't really want to hear from someone I had 'kinda' liked, my first reaction was 'WHYYYY!!! WHYYYY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?!?!?! but then something screamed back and said...WHAT WOULD BE SO WRONG??? and that stopped me in my tracks. Made me think of the question again. Really what would be so wrong in being by yourself? Am I so desperate to be with anyone that I am willing to let just anybody who walks in apply to be prince charming?

Recently I finished a book by Elizabeth Gilbert called 'Eat, Pray, Love' its about her journey to self discovery after a nasty divorce. She writes about her battle in finding the peace within and how she learns to accept and love herself before ultimately falling in love again. It struck a cord in me. If i don't love myself..who will? and really being alone isn't the end of the world.

So i guess the point I am trying to make here is, Its ok..its fine if you don't like me back. I am sick of the false pretenses anyway. Going for someone just cause they think I am 'one of a kind' then end up falling flat on my face..
