I don’t believe in love anymore.
It’s funny, it’s cliche, it’s stupid - but it’s true. I don’t believe in love anymore.
Romance, it won’t work for me anymore, I believe. Not now when I know deep down that I’m so scared of falling in love one more time. I don’t want to feel all those things - the excitement, the butterflies, the happiness - only to be deprived of it again after a while. I’m sorry to the next person that would want to be with me, but I can’t bring myself to think of myself in a relationship again anytime soon.
I want to be alone.
I met my college friends the other day (and I would’ve posted a photo of that instead of this one but they haven’t posted yet) and I was really surprised that some of them thought I looked good now (Look at the photo above and you’ll understand what I mean).
Seriously, I’m not sure if they told me that because they just missed me or what, but I really did appreciate it. I am happy now. Sometimes I can’t even believe that I’m this happy despite everything that I’ve been through since the start of this year. It’s true, what they say, time really heals all wounds.
I can’t really explain it without being overly dramatic or conceited but all I can say is I feel lighter, like I am not burdened by anything at all. Sure, some days I feel like crap and I drown myself in self-pity, but most of the time I feel optimistic. I remember the past but I no longer dwell in it like I used to.
Okay, I’ll be honest. Maybe the reason why I am ‘blooming’ is because I am in love again.
I am in love with my work, my friends, my family and most of all, I am head over heels in love with myself.
And I realize now as I am writing this, loving myself is one of the best things that I have ever decided to do.

Effects of Kissing:
- Long kisses are beneficial to our circulatory system. When kissing, our pulse rate is quickening up to 110 beats per minute. This is a great training for our cardiovascular system.
- After kissing, the lungs work harder, resulting in 60 inhales per minute compared to regular 20 inhales. Such “ventilation” is a good preventive measure against lung diseases.
- Some dentists believe that kissing is a preventive measure against dental caries. Indeed, kissing stimulates the flow of saliva that eliminates acid coat on the teeth.
- Kisses that last more than three minutes help us fight stress and its effects. Long kisses trigger the chain of biochemical reactions, which destroys stress hormones.
- Those who kiss their partner goodbye each morning live five years longer than those who don’t.
- Kissing is great for self-esteem. It makes you feel appreciated and helps your state of mind.
- Kissing burns calories, 2-3 calories a minute and can double your metabolic rate. Research claims that three passionate kisses a day (at least lasting 20 seconds each) will cause you to loose an entire extra pound.
- Kissing is a known stress-reliever. Passionate kissing relieves tension, reduces negative energy and produces a sense of well being, lowering your cortisol ‘stress’ hormone.
- Kissing uses 30 facial muscles and it helps keep the facial muscles tight, preventing baggy cheeks! The tension in the muscles caused by a passionate kiss helps smooth the skin and increases the circulation.
- Kissing is good for the heart, as it creates an adrenaline which causes your heart to pump more blood around your body. Frequent kissing has scientifically been proven to stabilize cardiovascular activity, decrease blood pressure and cholesterol.
- Those who kiss quite frequently are less likely to suffer from stomach, bladder and blood infections.
- During a kiss, natural antibiotics are secreted in the saliva. Also, the saliva contains a type of anesthetic that helps relieve pain.
- Kissing reduces anxiety and stops the ‘noise’ in your mind. It increases the levels of oxytocin, an extremely calming hormone that produces a feeling of peace.

I can still see you everywhere.
Why is it that whenever I feel like I am completely over you,
a fraction of my memory proves me otherwise?

“I don’t love you anymore.” It’s one of the worst sentences anyone can hear, especially when it comes out of the blue in the midst of what you thought was a good relationship. You don’t have screaming or horrible fights. There’s no abuse of any kind. You thought things were moving along nicely and suddenly he/she hits you with the revelation that he/she’s not that into you anymore.
- They fall out of love because they are bored. One major reason why he/she falls out of love is boredom. When you’re in a long-term, committed relationship, it’s easy to start taking things for granted and slipping into a routine that is comfortable and boring.
- They fall out of love because you neglected him/her. You may think that you’re doing enough to make your special someone feel appreciated and loved, but unfortunately they may be feeling differently.
- They fall out of love because they met someone else. Sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what makes a them fall out of love with her partner, but in the case of The Other Man/The Other Woman, the reason is clear.
- They fall out of love because you two grew apart. We all change as time goes by. Sometimes the person you got together with becomes someone you don’t recognize after. It’s possible that the reason they’re falling out of love is simply that their needs, priorities and goals are different than they were when you started the relationship.
Occasionally, relationships just end for no particular reason. The love just isn’t there anymore. This can be frustrating and confusing, since there’s no obvious cause for the two of you drifting apart. You may not be fighting constantly, but if one or both of you are not happy, you have to put in the effort to fix things — or walk away.
