It’s amazing isn’t what you can make yourself believe when you really want to. The things you can hear and process and think, yes that is great, blows my mind. People are unbelievably gullible when they are needy aren’t they? They will find a way to see past all of the lies, the hidden truths and treachery and only see and hear what they are needing at the moment. Oh and of course there is the pain that soon follows this. We all fall victim to this when it comes to love I guess, yes myself included as much as I hate to admit that.
People can be quite manipulative and shady when it comes to matters of the heart. People want to protect themselves so in turn they hurt others. They want to make sure that no one can hurt them so they keep many people around who are interested in them, telling each one how much they want to be with them. They tell each one the same thing and each one will believe they are the only one. It’s simple really, give the person what they are looking for . . . Love and the fact that someone wants them . . . And in return you get the security of knowing that all of these people have chosen to be with you. The problem arises when the people you are juggling meet one another on some level.
You will be hurting as soon as these people discover one another. People don’t enjoy having their hearts and minds toyed with. You will be lucky to get off with a simple tongue lashing by time the experiment is complete. You may have one person that is so needy and desperate that they will stick around, but what good does only one person do you? You need to have many only one will never do. So, rather than enjoy the one who really cares and chose to forget and move forward with you, you chose to go forth and play the game again. You never once realize the game is a no win situation where everyone gets hurt in the end, yes even you.
Love is no longer about love anymore to most people, it’s about ego. It’s about lets see how many people I can get to like me, how many I can get to want to be with me, how many I can get to want to give up everything for me. It’s sad when people view something as beautiful as love this way. If you can take love and the heart of another for granted and cause such pain and misery then what kind of life do you really have? Maybe before you start trying to pull person after person into your life you should analyze why you need to be needed as well.
