Notes From a Non Believer

I've lost all hope in love. I used to believe in it... well, I still believe in some kind of 'love'. But it's not a magical thing anymore. I used to think that love was this amazing bond between two individuals, some sort of destiny or fate for us to fulfill. I was wrong. It's just a chemical reaction that makes you make all the wrong choices. It casts out your common sense. It makes you change; not in the good way. It takes you aways from yourself. It pushes you away from your family and friends. It makes you cold with everyone other than 'the love interest'. It summons up the worst of yourself. It makes you be the worst 'you' you can be.
I realized I lost hope in love when, while watching a movie, I couldn't empathize with the characters. Something that never happened to me before. I used to be this secretive romantic idiot that beleived things that happened in movies could happen in real life. Now I know that's not true. Movies are pure shit, and there's not such thing as 'true love' or 'soul-mates'... that's just rubbish your parents want you to believe when you're a kid. But I'm not a child anymore, I can think for myself, and make my own decisions. So I decided.
This is the first statement of a -very special- non believer: I don't believe in love; and I won't waste any more minutes of my life dreaming about it.
