What i hate the most about our generation is, how we all pretend we don't care. We lie about how we feel, we wait to tell the person we love the most how we feel, because we're scared of rejection. we're scared that if we follow our heart, we're going to be crushed in the end, but if we look far enough back, our parents always told us to follow our heart, i'm a 17 year old girl, that got my heartbroken by a guy i am, and will always be madly in love with. Our generation hurts others, cause we've been hurt. We pick and choose who we want to fall in love with, we make a finsta on instagram about our love life, about how no one understands us, how we let ourselves get the the certain point of depression. We are weak souls. We don't know our worth, we think love is staying with someone who cheats because we are "down" for them. As much as we want to deny it, we are, this generation. We don't want to make ourselves official so we say we're "talking" we're "seeing" each other but gives us the total right to talk to whoever guy/girl we want. We make up a scenario on how we want our love life and puts ourselves up for heartbreak when we realize those are just dreams. I fell in love with someone who loved me occasionally I fell in love with someone who loves me in the mornings and at night but never afternoons. The feeling of love isn't what you need but you want it to the point you love, someone that can't love, that won't love. our generation, made up the thought that staying with someone who hurts you,brings you down is okay. we forgot about our worth. we forgot abt how we need to love ourselves before we love someone else. "i loved you even when i didn't love myself" isn't a excuse to settle and to be okay with the fact he doesn't love you. This generation wants to keep you, but don't want to commit to you. We don't date for the love anymore, we date just to date.We fall in love with the people we can't have, because we want the chase, we crave the feeling of sadness, We develop disorders we blame on everyone else, but ourselves. We believe in fairytales, we expect them to always come back. we expect happy endings. We believe no one is perfect so we make excuses on why it was okay for them to cheat on us, it was okay for them to hit me, people make mistakes, that's not it if someone loves you they will never, hurt you. they will be perfect, or close to perfect. everything we have been told, is a lie. this is the generation, who is losing the real meaning of love. Shakespeare wrote that "love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind", but this generation are looking with their eyes and forgetting about their minds.
