On Giving Advice

I have this friend who has a love problem. He just confessed to girlie and now he's idk, distraught about the whole thing since they're good friends.

I made a whole tirade about confessing feelings and reciprocation.


See speech below:
mmmmm. when you say you love someone and then you tell them, that should just be it. you expressing that you love this person. not expecting anything back. because that's not what love is. if you didn't tell her, then you'll regret it because you let it pass and you'll never know what would happen. if you did, good for you for stepping up. you did a brave thing. BUT. there should be no expectation of reciprocation because as I said, that's not what love is. love simply is, simply does. you should be happy you told her. just keep at where you are and don't force her or the circumstances to be in your favor (where she feels the same, or you want her to). eventually, she may or may not be in love with you too. the important thing is, you took a step. idk if there is or if there should be a next step. but that's life. keep loving her since that's what you feel in your tiny heart. that's all there is to it, my friend. her happiness should make you happy if your feelings are true. if she's happy with how things are, then let them be. let tomorrow worry about itself. such is life. c'est la vie. cats meow meow
Funny how we always have ready advice for our dear friends in love and in war. But when we ourselves are faced with the same predicament, more often than not, we refuse to heed other people's advice and stubbornly stick to our own devices.

Idk, just a thought.

Felt like writing stuff tonight but as always, distractions here and there prevented that. Ugh, blame game blech. I guess at least I wrote something good tonight!

I know this should have been a more comprehensive and thought-provoking piece since the title begs for the post to be but I'm not in the zone tonight. Haven't been for the past few weeks actually. I needed this day.

Stay in love or looking, everyone. x
