Relationships take up your time,too much of it. Hours spent making promises of love and forever, watching inane movies.
Recall the ridiculous amounts spent on birthday, anniversary and Christmas gifts - and strip of your pride, like the times you called and called and called . . . and called bacause you desperately needed to talk to him, or the time you begged him, with tears streaming down your face, to take you back.
Relationships simply rob you of your control over your emotions. Remember the nights you spent sobbing into your faithful pillow and the embarrassing mornings when swollen eyes and tear-crusted cheeks greeted you in the mirror?
Love came in a whirlwind, left, and now it's just you picking up the broken shards.
