What is Love?

What is love?
Titling this 'What is Love?' was an interesting choice. It has a purpose, but almost always this mission is selfish. As a seventeen-year-old, who probably knows nothing of what love actually is, this writing will be a waste of ink. On the other and, as someone who loves with her whole heart, my purpose is to document my experience in hopes of taking my own advice in the future.
To start, I jumped into my first relationship with both feet. I had my first kiss, lover, and breakup. Generally, people may say that this would be rushing things, especially since the relationship only lasted two and a half months. To be fair, I need touch. This is just the person I am. For me, nothing was rushed. I regret nothing. I miss that touch now, but more importantly, I miss how much I could trust this person. This guy is a good person at heart, but made a huge mistake, by lying that he loved me when his emotions weren't clear. He is still in love with someone else...
When you fall in love, you fall out of love hard. My assumption right now is that the faster you fall in love, the harder you fall. And with that fall comes pain and memories. These memories will hopefully become sugar coated because with love comes happiness if done right. The pain apparently goes away eventually, and the hurt feeling will turn to feelings of indifference. As a wholehearted person, I hope to always care for the person because it is the right thing to do, not because I needed them at the time. I want to have the love for every good person who comes into my life, no matter the circumstances. My first piece of advice is to become friends when the time is right, but since the pain is so relevant it will take time. Take that time to heal, move on, and learn to love the same as you did before, but always be cautious of the truth because that is what you value the most. (As such a young person/version in your life right now, I am certain that the truth is your top priority.)
My second piece of advice is to move on. I know this will take time, but he probably is never going to want you back. Find someone new, and take chances because it doesn't get easier as you get older. Try and do things on your bucket list. Pursue your passion, and take time for yourself before others. Love yourself, you are a kind gentle soul. You deserve what you put into the world, so take the good and get what you deserve.
Love,
A Past You
