There is always a lot to say about the laws of attraction. Books, movies, songs, letters are written around it, helping us figure out if what we feel is true, valid or even remotely common to everyone else. It’s ugly. It’s a jungle. Of feelings and people and wants and likes and dislikes. It all goes back to datinggetting rejectedwanting people to likelove and cherish us. We all play games and we love it, the flirtation, the touching, the butterflies. I still have those. The 2009 movie He’s Just Not That Into You taught us something valuable – or at least to me – man are very simple in the way that, if they want something, they will go after it and, if they don’t, they won’t. As simple as that. And I’ve witnessed and was also a victim of chasing after someone who didn’t want me. It’s not rocket science and we seldom fall for someone who doesn’t reciprocate. If people would realize sooner that the other person is never going to be interested, we would be a lot more happier. I believe that when it’s right, you feel it and it works. I don’t believe, though, in soul mates but rather two people (or whatever number you’re comfortable with) organically being together and making it work, through all the adversities. We all thrive on the drama and live for it. The essence of it is to have fun, feel good, make mistakes and take chances. You’re going to feel like crap some days but then, you won’t. The bad days are just reminders of how awesome those good days are (cliché much?). We should never lose sight of what our and his/her intentions are and, most of all, be smart and sharp about what you do. You can always be on both sides, never forget how it feels on either.
