I said I don’t want to date.
He said, “why not?”
I said I don’t think I can handle it.
He said, “what’s love without pain?”
I said why should love have pain?
He said “because no one is perfect”
I said the painful thing is being hurt intentionally
He said “that is not always the case”
I said but temptations are mostly the cases.
He said “guys are not all the same”
I said funny how you all say the same.
He said, “so you will never date?”
I said I adore love so I will just not now
He said, “pain will always be there you know”
I said have you ever imagined life without pain?
He said, “we would be weak as f.”
I said we wouldn’t because there wouldn’t be pain to detect how strong or weak we are.
He said, “but imagine the memories you would create with your boyfriend. Memories of your love”
I said you mean the ones I will one day cry myself to sleep for?
He said, “but you will have more experience in love”
I said is that what people date for these days, for experience?
He said “mostly… Guys go for girls who boost their egos and girls go for guys with money”
I said I don’t want that.
He said, “me either… but it is what it is”
