Wheels of Steel Life and

Wheels of Steel

Life and love is a funny thing.
As humans, we have this instinctive need to find love.
As adults we realize with love comes pain and some of us brave love anyway.
Fuck that.

Maybe I'm not human but I don't need to be loved nor liked.
I fell in love and got all soft n shit.
I won't be making THAT mistake again.

I've never understood people that just can't be alone. I do so well on my own. I prefer it that way. The idea of living with someone all the time is a little frightening. I love being able to watch whatever I want, or listen to music instead of TV, eating cereal for dinner, a PB&J at 2 am, or dinner leftovers for breakfast.
I love being able to leave my shoes in the middle of the floor, leaving a sink full of dishes for two days, stacking books and mail on the dining room table, sleeping until noon or not showering until the evening.

Oh I'm sure there are good things about living with someone but why put yourself through all the crap that comes with being in love? It's not guaranteed. Just because someone says they will love you forever doesn't mean it's true. You lower your guard for a moment to let that person in and then you get stabbed, not in the back but in the front, right in the heart.

Oscar Wilde once said "A true friend stabs you in the front."
So true...
