Today, during my first class in summer school, my professor mentioned that having a memory ensures you don't make the same mistake twice. A 3 year old is more prone to accidents than a 5 year old because they would remember what had caused the accident in the first place. I wonder why this lesson is not applicable to relationships.
I've always heard of how people supposedly end up dating the same person over and over again. Same as in, same mannerisms, same personalitites, same problems, same fights, same routine etc. etc. When it comes to love, it seems that memories serve no purpose and lessons are never learned.
I know I'm one phone call, one text message, one glance away from falling back into the hole I don't think I've ever gotten out of. I remember the anger, the hurt, the tears and yet, those bad memories aren't strong enough to make me stop whatever it is that I've been feeling for the past year and a half. Finding out about the other girl, the deceit, the shadiness, and the lies are not even enough to slap me back to reality.
My wise professor also taught me that the most powerful leaders in history are not ruled by emotions, but by logic. So what's it going to take for me to stop letting my emotions overrule my head?
Love Always,
LL
