We are young and reckless. These two things that happen to be two of the biggest faults in us as relationship partners, especially. What do you think of when you hear or come across "perfect love". Happiness, empathy and commitment? Ring a bell now? Being young, you would feel invisible. Like you can do anything - anything can happen. As if you can make anything work...

Real life however does not always portray this. Just because something work out in theory, it does not mean that it will work in practice. it is just that we were able to find each other at an inconvenient place. Sometimes, you simply meet the right person, but at the wrong time.

Devastation does not begin to describe what one can feel after a breakup. In my opinion, I realised that to blame its denouement on his youth and foolishness was, well young and foolish to me. Maturity however, is a byproduct of having experienced the world. both of us have much more to learn, much more to see. Young love can be doomed before it even begins, sadly.
