09 - On immaturity and broken hearts

Dear Friend,

You told me you're immature; probably because you haven't experienced that nerve-wrecking, feeling-like-dying kind of heart break. They say people grow up when they get hurt; they do not have a choice, after all. In all sense, that could be true.

He cheated on her, he lied to her, he went away with someone prettier, sexier, or even smarter than her. And there's just nothing she can do about it. She can't mope around every day for the rest of her life. She has to gather whatever's left, and just goddamn walk away.

You are one blessed person to have not experienced that. I hope you don't get to. I still believe there are men out there who still value loyalty, fidelity, love, commitments, relationships. And if you sincerely believe that you've found him, I hope you get to cast aside all your insecurities and just fucking love him.

Pain transforms people. Love could transform people, too.
