allowing yourself the gift of true love

Met a guy at one of my singles party who professed that as a happy single, he doesn't need anyone.

Sure, being single has its privileges; it's liberating to answer to no one and to come and go as one pleases.

Still, as a girlfriend reminded me once, everyone deserves to find love and be loved.

I have always looked for love, but I didn't expect it after years of not having it. I was content with lust, infatuation, and mere respect for the boys.

Now that I am falling deeply in love and enjoying every moment, I want to urge people to be open to love.

Love is not compatibility, love is not the end all and be all. I agree with my new friend that love may not make life easier, but I hope that he is willing to risk complications and fall madly in love.
