11 Tattoo Ideas For Hopeless Romantics Who've Loved And Lost
And want the ink to prove it.
getty Falling in love means putting your heart on the line.
When the chemistry starts, that's when the mind gets bossy and goes through a series of logical, reasonable, rational thoughts.
It wants to know if now is the right time to get romantically involved with someone, or is this relationship going to be a big waste of time.
Your heart and mind go into a discussion:
Is this the right time for romance? Is this the right person?
If s/he's the right person, is this the right relationship? Or is this relationship wrong for me?
Logic says, "Love the good guy or girl." "Love the person that's predictable." Pick safe.
The heart says to love big.
But no matter how much logic prevails, your heart decides who you love.
The moment your soul opens up and falls in love, the pain of regret and not knowing "what if" for the rest of your life is too severe.
You don't want to miss out on a once and a lifetime experience. Maybe it won't work out — but what if it does ...
Like the hit song by Selena Gomez that says, "The heart wants what it wants," the ache of love, no matter how painful, has to be followed through.
It's what the human experience is all about. Romance sometimes can feel like a meeting with destiny.
Rather than live in regret for playing it safe, you decide to take the chance and hope for the best. What have you got to lose? It's heartbreak one way or another.
You jump in with both feet and give it all you've got. And sometimes when the time comes and it ends, it's no surprise.
