I’m not going to pretend I know what love is. And even though it scares me and I tend to push it away, I do believe in it. I know that true love exists, I’m just scared that it doesn’t last. If you would have asked me this a couple years ago I would have said yes without hesitation. But lately my parents have been acting weird, so distant from each other and I hear them fighting more than usual and my dad has started taking trips by himself when that NEVER use to happen. It seems stupid that I question if everything is all right because it’s MY parents and I know them. But it’s because of the fact that they are MY parents, I know that something is off. They’ve been married for 27 years and I personally know they’ve had their ups and downs but this time just feels so much more different. I may be living on my own and 21 years old, but I can’t help but feel like a kid again when I get pulled into their disputes. I can’t imagine anything happening because I think that would be the end for me when it comes to love. I NEED to know that love exists and that it can last forever because I want the exact same thing. And even though love scares me, the thought of it not being real frightens me more. I don’t like where any of this is headed but I’m not sure exactly what to do. Am I overreacting? Idk, all I know is that I’m scared and could really use some one’s help or advise. :(
