That's what I was called... 'A fearless lover'. True, when I commit to someone, I give it my all. Isn't that the way? Evidently, it is not always so. Now, I'm not saying either is 'better' or 'worse', it is just a matter of how you choose to play the game.
Love is always a risk, it is exactly like any other gamble: you can only lose as much as you bet, no more and no less. For some, it is smart to count their chips and carefully place them one by one; this way, you always know how much you may lose and can withdraw at any moment. Still, the problem is that no one plays this game on their own; there's always at least one more person with their money on the table (so to speak).
However, everybody bets as much as they wish to win - for some of us it is not whether we might 'lose' but knowing if the other is playing to win as well.
So far I have learnt that it is better to bet all, otherwise why play at all? If you're going into a relationship half-heartedly then you will most likely fail... And the process will not be half as enjoyable!
The fear of being heartbroken... Yeah, it's overwhelming sometimes. But, isn't heartbreak unavoidable anyway? Also, time heals a broken heart... But, the longer you wait, the less likely you'll be able to love fearlessly... The longer you stay in the safe zone, the harder it'll be to step out of it.
So, give it all! Love all the time! A heart that has been broken has known love and that is worth the pain... When you're in love with security and the safety of being within your defenses, there is very little room for anything else.
