relationships are complicated to say the least. they take up time. sometimes they make us choose between others over a single person. they cost a lot of money. they require energy. they make us laugh. cry. frustrated. happy. angry. they blind us sometimes to the reality of how things really are. but sometimes living in that bubble of a relationship isn't that bad. we can often be sheltered from the insecurities of singleness. we can feel love and be able to love as well. but sometimes the bubble bursts leaving us feeling like we would have been better off without the protection. without all the high highs and low lows. then why do we do it? why do we enter relationships if they hurt us so deeply sometimes? for me? it's for those high highs. for how could we know what true happiness feels like without having experienced heartache and sadness. for me. the bubble could be a forever bubble. i mean no one enters the bubble with the idea that it's going to fail (or maybe some do but im assuming most dont). we all enter the bubble because we're betting on the idea that its that permanent bubble. and that's why we input all of the energy. money. time. emotions. and the like into relationships right? because this bubble could be the only bubble for me for the rest of my life. i'd rather put all of the things into the bubble now and see it pop as opposed to not putting anything in and realizing later that that bubble could have been a good one. no regrets.
what i'm trying to get at is. relationships are tricky. confusing. difficult. exhausting. tedious. and so much more. but we wouldn't be entering them and pouring ourselves into them if they weren't worth it right? i hope not. i hope the benefits of the bubble outweigh the costs of the bubble. haha ECON MAJOR FOR SURE.
