Fate and Feelings
It’s been nearly a year since my last article due to severe writers block however, unexpectedly, I have found my inspiration again.
Appropriately named, this describes my current situation.
Obviously, as always, no names will be mentioned due to people’s privacy I hope you enjoy the read.
People spend their whole life actively searching for ‘The One’. Whether they go on 10+ dates a month or sign up to dating websites such as the most popular Tinder or Plenty Of Fish in the hopes they will match with someone, meet, fall in love and be a picture of perfection for years to come.
However most of the time you get endless messages off people who don’t spark your soul, or make you want to engage in conversation with them.
We simply scroll through endless profiles, reading the words on a screen judging people based on how they describe themselves, and simply choose whether we send them a message.
It can be a brutal experience for some, people can hide behind a screen. It’s very easy to write a bio about yourself which is simply not true, post a few pictures edited to the max and hey presto we have portrayed ourselves to be someone we aren’t, in most cases this is true.
However on a very rare occasion you will receive a message and that person will captivate your interest with the first few lines of words written and you will message back.
The conversation will just flow so easy between you both the words come to you with no effort needed and you will talk for hours on end.
You realise you have similarities, common interests, despite coming from different backgrounds and you just click.
You may question it at first thinking to yourself “This is too good to be true”. You will over think, analyse and sometimes panic and of course that’s normal.
It’s not often you meet people and connect on a deeper level than just lust and when you do it can be overwhelming, intense, and scary but at the same time it can be amazing.
