Waking Up Every Morning

"When you wake up in the morning I'll be there, everytime."
-Connor Mead | Ghost of Girlfriends Past

Every girl's wish is to be able to wake up with the one you love beside you everyday. Although not everyone is as lucky as the next girl but girl can wish cant she?

Finding for that right person who deserves to be beside you is hard, especially in our generation today. Most (if not all) guys would just sleep with you  but not really sleep with you. They'll be gone the second they're done (the classic Barney Stinson move). But then again, there will always be that one person destined to sleep with you, stay with you through the night and wake up beside you  and watch that first ray of sun shine on your face (maybe even make you breakfast if you're really that lucky).

Those kind of guys are, unfortunately, in the brink of extinction. I think and maybe even believe that the reason for their extinction is us girls too. I mean, they wouldn't be afraid of commitment if no one made them believe otherwise. Just as the saying goes, "There's always a jerk behind every bitch and a bitch behind every jerk." So whoever is that first jerk/bitch that started this, well my middle finger salutes you. Because of that first jerk/bitch people  got hurt, they've experienced how painful it is to lose someone you love so much. They all end up thinking, I may have survived this heartache, now the next question is what about the next?

The reason why they (meaning men &women alike) don't come crashing into commitment is because they are afraid. Afraid of feeling all the pain they've felt before and thinking maybe this time I may not make it. And being afraid about the unknown makes you think too much. Thinking of thoughts like committing to one person who you don't even have the slightest idea if what they're telling you is true; thinking that what if this person will just end up hurting me like the last one, or what if this person will wake up one day and leave me. So what do they do now? They cut the relationship short, short enough not to let themselves be attached, and be hurt again.  Again the cycle of heartache.

But let me tell you this, love is a risk. It is a gamble, it is a game that will make you want to give everything you got for someone and something that’s very uncertain. If you will just walk away and not be brave enough to take a leap of faith and risk it all, then you'll just end up waking up everyday full of regrets, full of questions that will always be unanswered just because you did not take that risk. Love doesn’t mean that you're not going to get hurt, but the pain that you'll feel will never be equal to the amount of regret that you will  feel walking away from love.

But alas, there is hope, I think most of us are just holding onto that thin thread of hope that maybe we still have that chance find that person.  I believe (and always will) that there's that one person who is destined for us, someone who holds that other end of the thread. Someone that will make me believe that true and unconditional love is really true. Someone who would make you want to wake up every morning.
