I red a quote that once stated, ” Some people don’t know how to fall in love, like not knowing how to swim. They panic first when they jump in. Then they figure it out.” Having the thought of not knowing how to love is scary. You start to build up anxiety and might even convince yourself that you won’t meet someone special. But, the fact is- everyone is scared to fall in love. It’s not that you don’t know how not to love, it’s the idea of love that scares people. Love can be dangerous yet it can be an amazing and joyful feeling.

In my own experience and opinion, i believe that everyone can fall in love it just takes a certain amount of time. Most young people, such as myself- have a long time to find that “special someone.” A variety of people think that they “need” to be in a relationship- but why do they “need” to be in a relationship? Like for example- they need to marry someone and they need to start a family. I keep asking myself, “But why?” You shouldn’t rush into any type of relationship just because you believe that you have to force yourself into something that you know deep down that you aren’t ready for. Is that really love? I don’t understand why people do that. Love is a difficult emotion and feeling, i personally have a hard time with feeling things and it sucks because i never really know what my heart is telling me or i don’t know what to do if i do feel something. It’s confusing believe me i know. It’s hard to not know how to feel, even if it doesn’t have anything to do with love.
