[MAKE DUOLOGY #2] When it comes to love, there are no boundaries. You can love your past back when you feel like it. Masama na bang magmahal ng iisang tao lang? Kung mahal mo siya, so what? Hindi tanga ang mga taong nagtatake risk para magbigay ng second chance kahit nasasaktan na. In fact, sila 'yung masasabi mong nagmamahal ng totoo dahil kahit natatakot ay nagawa nilang sumugal ulit.

Sabi nila everyone deserves to love and to be love, pero bakit nag eexist parin yung one sided love? Hindi ba pwedeng mahalin ka nalang rin ng taong mahal mo? Mahirap kase di mo naman pwedeng diktahan at sabihan ang puso nya na mahalin ka rin nya pabalik. Sabi rin nila masarap mag mahal pero bakit maraming nasasaktan dahil sa pag mamahal? Kase mag isa lang silang nag mamahal. Ang sakit isipin na yung taong mahal mo ay may mahal nang iba. Sana di nalang nabuo ang salitang one sided love para walang nasasaktan ng dahil sa pag ibig. Sana mahal ka nalang rin ng taong mahal mo pero mukhang imposible na yun.
