I believe that true love does happen. I believe that even if we haven’t found him/her yet, we still have to continue to believe that somewhere on this planet there is someone right for each one of us.
For a while now I’ve had a crush on this guy in my program. He’s pretty much everything I’ve ever wanted in a guy – we share the same beliefs (like down the whole vegetarian deal and all), cultures, origins, career paths, and ambitions. The nice part is that despite having so much in common, we still have a lot of new viewpoints and experiences to share. We get along really well and somehow destiny made it such that we both decided to take a year off med school this year and ended up not only in the same program, but also living in the same building, same floor, next-door neighbours.
When you bump into someone who you think is so perfectly right for you, sometimes it throws you back – like “Huh? You do exist after all – it wasn’t just something I was falsely reassuring myself of all these years. All the times I was trying to make other people seem right, there you were, miles away, leading your own life… and then one day you walked into mine.”
But in the real world there’s no such thing as perfect - and he was yet another reminder of that fact. He already has someone in his life. He met her four months ago and he’s crazy about her. I guess in spite of everything then, he wasn’t right for me after all. And so gradually I get over this silly crush and I let go of how right I thought he was.
Which takes me back to my initial point. That even if we haven’t found him/her yet, we still have to continue to believe that somewhere on this planet there is someone right for each one of us.
