Sex without love is like eating with being hungry.
It's so mechanical. You don't enjoy it.
Maybe others do, but not me.
I'm not like that.
I wonder what happened to romance. It doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Or maybe I just meet all the wrong people.
It doesn't matter, anyway. I'm most likely going to be alone. I'm used to it.
This happened a couple of months ago.
It's rare that I find someone's soul so beautiful. It's even weirder when the person is a complete stranger.
I was on the train...I won't say where I was going and why I was on it. Let's just say I made a silly decision. I chose a seat on the back. This guy was sitting next to me, and he seemed pretty nice. He was reading. I managed to get rid of my shyness and I started talking to him. I'm not sure how long we spoke, but it felt like we talked for hours. He was a lover of literature as well, and he was working on a thesis on John Milton and Orpheus. He was writing a book for his doctorate, which is pretty hard, obviously. I could tell that he loved literature as much as me. I found him so beautiful as we discussed literature together. I can't really explain why. I just felt that he was different than most people. And then he brought up his girlfriend, and for some reason I couldn't get over that. I don't know why I felt disappointed. I found myself being extremely jealous of her, envying this stranger that I never met. It was so weird, but at the same time very interesting. You never know the kind of people you'll meet...

You're so right about that, but what's even worse is when you discover the other person doesn't love you but has been misleading you the whole time.
