"...Life makes love look hard."

I never thought a Taylor Swift song would make so much sense but wow. I'm sure when life decides to hit us on all sides, we try to eliminate parts that we think we can do without. How stupid we are to think we can walk away from someone who makes us happy and offers us everything we've wanted and even the things we never knew we even needed. But that's the thing, life tricks us into thinking we can't be happy with someone and also deal with all of its shit. It doesn't tell us that the people who love us don't care if we get down on ourselves because of what it's throwing our way. The ones who love us don't even let the negative fade them. They just keep giving and supporting regardless of what life throw at them. Love creates a shield from all this. I'm not sure why life needs to teach us such hard lessons but I do know that life should know, I'm onto you. Stop scaring the man that wants to love me. Stop making him think he can't deal with you and have me too. That's not very nice of you, life. Because I have a feeling that your friend Fate isn't very happy with your decision to make this hard. Fate has been quite supportive lately with this, so you should come on board too. Please and thank you.
