Two-ness

In every girls life there is (at least) one boy whose call she refuses to pick.
The reason is (nearly always) a variation of him being
-clingy
-desperate
- (or just plain) weird

In every boys life there is (at least?) one girl whose daydreams he has haunted. The only difference is he is, probably, completely oblivious to it.

So then is this the reason people are unhappy?
Does unrequited caring sum up the big mystery?
Are people sad (read lonely) because they don't have that ONE person who likes them back the way they would want them to?
I wonder if even getting that ONE person to care the same way would salvage anything. Wouldn’t they care at once if they were meant to?

I’m not particularly fond on dwelling on life’s little incomprehensible romantic goof ups but the thing is, eventually it rubs them in ones face. Through a movie, book, friends… or even a walk down memory lane. One would assume attraction to be a two way thing. Correction, one would Want attraction to be a two way thing.
How wonderful if one only liked that ONE person in life and felt only brotherly (sisterly) feelings for the other 2 million people they came into contact with.
As if only THE ONE… the SOULMATE could provoke great joy, immense sorrow and extreme vulnerability.
How easy to pin point then, you-are-the-one-I-will-be-with.
How easy then to not waste ones time.
How easy to let ones guard down.
How easy then to ‘go with the flow’ because you know that one day… both of you flowing in your very own separate water bodies will end up as one, joining hands before you sink into the bigger pool.
To know without the shadow of a doubt, that you will in fact, one day… delirious with joy and drunk on predestined romance… dive into the same turbulent waters.
How easy it would be to brush aside paranoia when you just KNOW that its all going to be okay and this joy you will is going to last the long trek, and the intensity won’t wane… to realize the real thing when it grasps your hand… to not suspect it to be an illusion.

Sigh. If only life could be that simple, that obvious. :)
God willing, one day it will be. :)

This was starting out as cynical and landed up being otherwise.
Go figure. :)
