this post is gonna be kinda inspired/related to one of mckinley's posts and it's that when you think of love, what pops into your head is generally romance. whatever happened to the thought of just caring so deeply for someone? who said it was forbidden to go further than that? love does not only have to obtain to two people being happy and dandy in a relationship. love doesn't have to compute to marriage. because marriage always starts off with some sort of friendship. some friendships are just meant to be, and it all matters on how much you're committed to that person. i guess you could say i throw around the word love carelessly and recklessly, but those times, i don't mean it. when it comes to those whom i am faithful towards, that's when you know how much i love them. the reason why i wanted to pick up on this topic of interest was because when i told one of my guy friends i loved him (like a friend) he thought i meant as in a crush type of way. and that just boggled my mind. the conclusions boys jump to! here's another example. so me and my best guy friend would text and whenever he had to go, he would leave a heart at the end. one day he sent a text like that accidentally to his girlfriend and his girlfriend got suspicious and thought he liked me. all because he put a heart. i find it sad how people don't expose themselves to the different depths of love. but anyway the ending to that is that me and him stopped sending hearts. i honestly only did it to return the favor, and because i do in all honesty care about him and love him. he feels the same way. i know this because he has expressed it before. but love, it's gotta be the most intricate feeling ever. love leads to depression. love leads to experience. love leads to heartbreak. love leads to lifelong friendships, and sometimes that's all you really need.
