It was about two years ago, my sophomore year. Around that time I met this person at one of the footballs games, started talking and we just “clicked” instantly and he soon became one of my bestfriends and he became the person I cared about the most, we did everything together. The problem was that I became a little obsessed, I even went to the extent of pushing my other friends away. But that's all he was in my life, a friend, and I was happy/content with that, but it still hurt to watch him fall in love with another person who I used to be close with. It broke my heart and a part of me felt like I wasn't good enough, I didn't blame anyone but myself.
They assured us it was nothing we did, but completely their own choice. I stood next to my brother, who had tears streaming down his face. I felt like I had to stay strong for my brother's sake, so I could reassure him that everything would be okay. But deep down I was hurting just like he was. After meeting in the kitchen, my brother and I went to our rooms.
He was leaning against the wall, bent shoulders sagging as if under a heavy load. I went up to him, took his hand and kissed it. I felt a tear on my hand. Whose was it? Mine?

Nonetheless, I finally receive the courage to look back, my family is still standing in the same position with dismay eyes. I wave back to my lovely family, it is a hurtful
My dad’s best friend had saw me looking for my dad. He came over to me and he took me to the stairs along with a big group. He had told me, “go on, I will find your dad.” At that moment I wanted to go help him find my dad because he has done so much for me and I owe him.
Alan Watts once said, “Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.” (brainyquotes.com). Watts is saying that we can't just say that we love someone, we have to feel our heart swell with the love we have for that person. In William Shakespeare's, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet are not truly in love because they automatically fall ‘in love’ after seeing each other once, they decide to get married a few hours after they meet and they are too immature to actually know what love is . One reason Romeo and Juliet are not truly in love is that they fell in love right after they meet (lust at first sight).
My family lives very different in USA compared to Thailand. We have lived in the USA for ten years and many things have changed our life and there are many opportunities. My family life is getting much better and we live in living good place. We lived Thailand more than fifteen years, and I didn’t think about to reach my goal, and my life would be nothing there. Thailand is smaller country than USA.
but I was blinded by love. Luckily it ended because once I saw reality, I felt insane for wanting the spend the rest of my life with him. The love for a couple should be pure, trusting, selfless, and should take time to build into a strong foundation.
