Friendship vs. love

We sacrifice friendship for love.

and I wish it was more like we risk friendship for love but it's not.

When the decision is made to take things to the next level with someone there's no looking back.

The thing I hate though is how inevitable it is.

You give yourself away to a person sometimes completely and learn/see/do/experience so many things with them to in the end only be left with memories, of what once was but will never be again. Both friendship and love. All of a sudden that person you could talk to and laugh with and have special moments with whenever and wherever is no longer that person. I mean they can't be, that would just be torture.

Things will never be the same with that person again. (as hard as you may try for them to be.)

Until you find the person your going to marry is when things change. I guess that's the one happy ending to it all. The one person you are not forced to lose.

But anything before that, no.

and it seems unfair but then again only makes sense. It's just the crappy way things work when it comes to relationships. and this thought, kind of scares me.

You never really think about it you know. I mean why would you, usually everythings good until it's not. There's no reason, the thought does seem a bit pessimistic. although I see it more as realistic.

But yeah.

So I guess you just have to jump into the fire and hope for the best. soak in and enjoy every moment and hope to be able to leave with a feeling of contentment in the end of it all. That's really all you can do.

And if it does work out...then it'll probably be the most amazing relationship of your life <3
