All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
The Downfall of a Neurotypical Female
Every Disney movie has the same plot for the most part. Seriously. A princess in a dire situation is on the cusp of doom when a prince rushes in to save her. I came to realize this when I was 15, and I began to wonder if true love was real. I came to the conclusion that no, there was no destined soul mate for everyone. It was more just finding someone you could tolerate and settling down.

Perceptions of Love
Love can be perceived by one in many ways. Some prioritize it, others fear it. I believe that everybody has different experiences that affect how one may feel about love. As an owner of the infamous trait of overthinking, I myself have taken a lot of my own time over the years to really analyze this subject and all the emotions and thoughts involved. I, like many others, have loved and lost, and have gone through the whole process. I've learned over the years of growing up that a relationship between to beings can be a very powerful thing, and can involve a variety of emotions and events.

The Relationship Status
Someone told me once the quote, "it is what it is," and I never really got along with it because I believe that you shouldn't take whatever bullshit is thrown at you and just accept it. Life is a journey for sure, but it doesn't have to be a war zone. You will have to step up one day and say what's on your mind and how you can FIX it because if you nurture it inside your soul it will only start growing roots and probably leaving scars for life.

You Would Think I Learn the First Time
We’ve all been in love at some point or another. Real actually love from a person that is accepting of who you are, and the burdens that you may or may not have on yourself. These days now it is not easy to find someone that is truly accepting of you. It seems there is more of judging than taking in the person for who they are. Love… seems more fake now than ever. The word “Love” gets flung all over the place without meaning it. It can be used to manipulate, abuse emotional and mentally, and take advantage of others because they were naïve to think about what the person is doing to them. It is unfortunate to believe but it is true. If there was an answer as to why that is… I would like to know myself. I guess what lead me to say that is because I look at what I have been through, and what I have seen through my relationships and others. The most common thing I see happen is loving more than one person, it is very possible to do so, but does it work out to love two people at once? It’s possible, but who are they hurting in the end? Themselves that is wanting to be with two people or the ones that are head over heels for them and can’t bear to see them with someone else.

You Aren't the Man of My Dreams...
Hello, My Love: As I write this, I am thinking about the past three and a half years of our lives we have shared together. Looking back, it feels as though I have only blinked my eyes once and we are already here but also as though an entire eternity has passed between then and now. So much has happened in this time, both joyful and painful, and so much has changed, both in who we are as individuals and in who we are as a pair. And, I must say, I am incredibly proud of the sheer number and intensity of the trials we have survived together and of just how far we’ve come as a couple. I feel as though, despite the challenges we face on a daily basis, we are truly thriving together. And, for that, I am so very grateful.

Crossroads
Guy is driving behind the wheel, watching Girl sleep as the horizon changes behind them, in the midst of day shifting into night. He wonders if he should wake her, but decides against it for possibly the fifth time in less than an hour, the iridescent light shining off her impossibly beautiful peaceful face. He'd turned off the radio for fear of waking the sleeping goddess beside him. Out of boredom, Guy begins to keep himself company.

Need Vs Love
There are a few things in my life that are relentless. They just never seem to stop. I think I have a handle on it. I let my guard down. Then, WHOOSH, it is back out of control again. Things like laundry, and people wanting to be fed. For the love of GOD, learn to feed yourselves! I don’t know who put me in charge, or why, but it NEVER stops.
