equivocal

sometimes i think i will never fall in love.

---

to preface that statement, I got coffee/studied with a friend today. And we got to talking about parents and relationships and such. Who played what role, who took care of the kids and house, who made the decisions, who was the last voice in the decisions, who loved the other person more.

What a trick question - do you think you love your significant other more than he/she loves you?

Do you believe in this statement: Whoever loves the least controls the relationship.

What an ugly, cynical saying.

But the extremely pragmatic side of me thinks that it is very close to truth.
Loving too much makes you vulnerable.

And I always try to make myself invulnerable. It is an ingrained habit of mine by now.
If you hold yourself too closely, will you ever fall in love?
