relationships and anything close to it
terrify me

the chances of ending up in a loveless one
or just committing to someone
to break it off a few years later
and adding to the
ever growing over 50% divorce rate
is intimidating

it could work out
and make the two of you
very happy
and fulfilled
and whatever else
comes with love

but i think
with too much logic
and numbers leave a harder impression
than stories

so that might be why
i avoid telling guys
that i think they are cute

because in reality when you date someone
it will end either
by the promotion of marriage
or breaking up forever
and that terrifies me
