Unrequited Love

I'm a hopeless romantic. I love, love, honestly it is my favourite thing. I have for as long as I can remember. Could be star sign related, or could just be because I'm a loser. But, I love seeing people in love, I love watching love films, well, crying, at love films, hearing about love, and of course, being in love. I love the passion, thoughtfulness. It's indescribable; and I love it.

Unrequited love; the worst, most treacherous feeling in the world. Being desperately in love with someone who doesn't love you back. Nothing is worse than the complete agony of loving somebody who just sees you as another person. It could be that they don't want you in the way you want them, or the other person could be completely oblivious to the way you feel about them.

It's a feeling that I hate and somewhat love at the same time. I think the admiration is lovely but despise the way somebody can make you physically feel weak. It's crazy how a person can make my legs tremble and my whole body shake because of the burning passion I have towards them. I can't decide if I think the feeling of being so passionate about another person is beautiful or dangerous. I think everybody should have somebody who is completely and utterly obsessed with them.

''The exquisite pain of wanting someone so unattainable'' - Sex and the City. One of the greatest TV series in the history of all TV series. I've seen every episode countless times but no other part of the series has stuck out at me more than this quote. Because it is exquisite. Unrequited love is bitter sweet, although it tends to be painful I think the idea of admiring somebody with or without them acknowledging your feelings is pretty beautiful. There is nothing wrong with one sided love, because the feeling of love is so great in itself.

Just remember to ''Never apologize for how you feel. No one can control how they feel. The sun doesn’t apologize for being the sun. The rain doesn’t say sorry for falling. Feelings just are.''

Love is love.

Body Shaming | Part 1

What even is a 'perfect body'? Who decides what that is? Everybody has a different perception of perfection. What one person sees as unattractive, could be somebody else's ideal. I think my sister is perfect, I think certain shoes are perfect, some days to me are perfect, drinks, food but not everybody has the same opinions as me and could see what I see as perfect as complete shit, but that's irreverent to me because I think it's perfect. It doesn't matter what other people think about your physique, if you are happy with yourself, that's all that matters and if you're not, change it? I know for some people you can't physically/emotionally but then you need to learn to love yourself because you are more important than anything else. You do not need to change yourself for anybody ever.

It is so easy to judge people, say hateful things without even realising that your words could really put them down. People on the internet are always dragging people down, It is not OK, it will never be OK to publicly shame somebody for their appearance. The media are to blame for the amount of shaming there is. Comparing older celebrities who have had children to these young, fresh on the scene celebs is completely wrong. labeling somebody as 'fat' because she hasn't got a completely flat stomach, what is that? People tweeting celebrities saying how awful they look because they haven't got super thin legs, or whatever. People are people. Everybody is different but were all the same in the way that if somebody calls out on your insecurites it hurts.

Why is it that no matter what size you are, somebody has something to criticise you for? Everybody nowadays is so judgmental. I haven't a clue why but it should seriously stop. And it's not just guys shaming girls, it's girls against girls, girls shaming guys and then guys vs guys. Why is it anybodies place to say anything about YOUR body. Do people shame people because they aren't happy with their own appearance, so it's only right to make somebody feel  as bad as you do? It's not OK.

I have more to say about this topic and will write about it again in the near future.

Let me know what you think. Thanks for reading.
