INTRO
Ten days. Ten days was all it took. Ten days for me to fall in, and ten days for him to fall out. Two hundred hours, fourteen thousand four hundred minutes, eight hundred sixty four thousand seconds, ten days. I've never been the kind of person to believe in love. I've seen love trashed one too many times. I think people get a false sense of security with the 'true love will come' crap that every little girl's mother tells them. Its not true though, love is work. Both parties have to put forth some type of effort to make it work, but most of the time someone backs out.
I've seen first hand the pitfalls of love, its horrible really, it sucks you in with its warm fuzzy feelings, the butterflies in your stomach, the pretense that no one will ever hurt you. But you know the truth about love? It ends, every time. For some people its easy, they wake up one morning and are free of the burden of love. And for some it stays, eating away every emotion you could possibly feel. That's how it is for me. Its my own fault. I let myself become vulnerable and become addicted to the drug of love. I took note of how cute he was, and all the little funny things he did. I let the epidemic of love sneak up and infect me. Now it was slowly eating away my insides until I died a slow and painful death.
If you cant tell by now, my story is one of love. Don't get me wrong, I hate love stories as much as the next person, but this is most defiantly not your average love story. There is no happy ending, no finale kiss that seals the deal, no extravagant wedding, no proposal, just ten days. The ten days that taught me never to trust your heart. I'll never forgive those ten days, the ones that turned me from a fighter into a lover.
This is just an introduction, I have the whole story finished, if people like it, then I'll post it!
