LIFE LESSONS

“Why it is so easy for some to find love, while for others it takes ages or can’t find at all?”

People are just unlucky.

Sometimes people are unfortunate enough not to find the love of their lives because they don’t live in the same country. They certainly tried to make things work with the people they’ve met so far, but in the end, they still ended up unhappy.

Unfortunately, love doesn’t happen to everyone. That’s the kind of world we live in. And it doesn’t choose between who’s been a good person and who’s been trash because fairness isn’t something this world often practices.

There are also those who are afraid to try again after failing in their relationships. And there are also those that have terrible personalities, basically shooting themselves in the foot with their efforts.

But it’s not gloom and doom all the time. Older people that are thinking outside the box find themselves in a loving relationship with their soulmates because they chose to do something about it. It’s a hit or miss with some of them but if you don’t try to fix your lonely situation, then how else will things change?

If you think you can’t find love right where you are right now, then look for it somewhere else. This era is driven by the power of the internet. Communication is leagues better today than it was years ago. You can just as easily talk to a foreign man or a foreign woman now.

If your problem is your unwillingness to open up to new people because of trauma, then I’m sorry, but you have to at least try to fix yourself. Therapy works. Talking to friends helps. If you really want to change, then make an effort. This goes for those who realized they’re the ones with toxic behaviors.

Remember. Nothing will change if you don’t do anything about it.
