I want to fall in love and be in a relationship

A very weird place to do this, but I’m pretty aware that a lot of people in this community are hopeless romantics like I am. And I don’t have reddit nor do i intend to make one—I just want to get this off my chest. And so.. here it goes

It feels weird to live in this generation.

I want a romance or a relationship that takes its proper steps. Getting to know each other, being courted, and then getting into a relationship. But somehow everyone keeps blurring the lines.

I don’t want to do relationship things when we’re not in a relationship. If I’m to be courted, i want to feel courted. Not obligated to respond and immediately identify if I’m capable of reciprocating feelings I don’t have yet.

And I’m not sorry that I haven’t been in a relationship yet—I simply yearn for it. And unlike what my family believes in, I don’t feel pressured to be in a relationship. I simply do not appreciate knowing that love exists and for some reason—it keeps evading me (I’m from a separated and somehow toxic family).

It’s not that I hate and don’t understand how many people intend to function and proceed with their relationships. I just appreciate the peace and my principles in appreciating the process that I want to be emulsified in.

AND FOR GOODNESS SAKE.

MEN. LEARN. TO. COMMUNICATE. Women aren’t the only who is good at playing the vague game nowadays. But dense or not, if you don’t verbalize your intentions? Your plans? I’d be left thinking that you’re just flirting with me, getting to know me, and be kept guessing if you’re serious enough with me to commit to me. Because I always say this to the men I talked to, “if I’m talking to you and you can feel my utmost attention on you, then you’re the only one that I’m focused to.” Now that is my go signal that I’m willing to learn about you. NOT BE IN A RELATIONSHIP—Let’s get that cleared up. Learn how to properly communicate yours.

Somebody start a discussion. I want to hear your opinions and talk about it—i’d probably end up talking back, but let’s keep it healthy ( ̄∇ ̄")
