A Personal Narrative Essay About Falling In Love

1595 Words7 Pages

I HAVE KNOWN
There’s always that one guy who gets a hold on you. I’m talking epic. That “can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t do your homework, can’t stop giggling, can’t remember anything but his smile” kind of hold.
Until suddenly you wake up one morning and realize the truth: that some boy, a boy you have known your whole life, a boy you never even dreamed is suddenly all you think about.
The problem is, for me, there is absolutely nothing fun about falling in love. Mostly it just makes you feel sick, crazy and anxious that it is going to end miserably and ruin your whole life.
Okay, yes, he smells amazing. Yes, you melt whenever he texts you saying sweet messages. Yes, he holds your hand on the way to the city. Yes, when he kisses you, the rest of the world disappears and your brain shuts off and all you feel are his lips and nothing else matters. And yes, the way he looks at you expresses that you are a drop dead gorgeous one, and definitely, you are.
Love is no game. Falling in love is pretty much the same as being eaten alive by a savage animal. Believe me because I know. Did I mention? It happened to me. No, I do not mean that I was eaten alive by a savage animal. The way I went was much, much worse.
………………
I am Sylvia Juliano. I almost had everything. I had the perfect family: Mom, Dad and Julian. I had the perfect best friends: Cangelle,Vanessa and Rogie Ann. And I had the perfect boyfriend, Tom Domingo.
I was happy.
But all of that changed on the night of May 04, 2016.

  • Romeo And Juliet Not In Love Analysis

    915 Words  | 4 Pages

    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).
