Fatally disillusioned, the life long pursuit of finding a soul mate falters.
Now seemingly inconsequential, the notion of such devotion to a single purpose escapes me
Years dedicated to such an inane ideology resulted in a rather anticlimactic conclusion
The existence of true love eludes me, yielding only indifference and solemn resignation
Resigned not to solitude but realistic expectations of future love
Emotional maturity, intellectual stimulation, and commitment emerge as the new focal points.
A shift in paradigm that’s not solely led by the heart but by the mind as well.
A flutter in my stomach, a glimmer in his eyes, and an inexplicable attraction are no longer my prerequisites for love.
I no longer search for my soul mate, but for my life partner who understands and believes in forever.

This post, here, tells my story… It is amazing that you wrote my story!

Best post ever, right here… Your words reflect my own disillusionment… putting my whole life into one cause, one passion, and then finding it to be all an illusion. The disappointment, regret for time wasted, dreams sabotaged, and a life left hanging on the edge, unable to completely be set free from a lost flame that is nowhere to be found- if it ever even existed at all. And, now, where do I go? This dream was my everything, and the shattering of it has left me like an orphan, alone and utterly lost.
