Last semester, in one of my sociology classes, we learned about a theory that states you can fall in love with anyone. If we didn’t narrow our dating options based on shallow qualities such as looks and clothing, if we allowed ourselves to look passed education levels, religious views, and income, if we let ourselves, if we looked deep into what made a person who they are, we could fall in love with just about anyone. If we could see what they do with the 3 minutes they have to wait for their microwave meal, if we could read their thoughts when they wake up from a dream at 4a.m., if we knew how long they spent just standing under the hot water in the shower, it would occur to us how beautiful a person can be in that vulnerable state when they think no one is looking. If we were able to sit back and watch every second of someone’s life like a movie, not just seeing the persona they bring to the surface when exposed to other people, the reality would set in of just how impactful every moment is to who someone truly is. This is alarming to me. I’m terrified of letting myself fall in love with the wrong person. Everyone is beautiful in their own way, and I know that if I let myself, I could fall deeply for someone with the ability to destroy me. Logically speaking, it’s not a matter of “soulmate” or “not meant to be”. Fairytales create this illusion that just because you feel something magical with someone, you’ll live happily ever after. In reality, you can be swept off your feet by anyone you allow yourself to get close to. That person could either have a personality and goals that fit yours perfectly or they could be completely toxic to your life. The scariest, most important part of a relationship is being able to tell the difference before it’s too late.
