Just Loving Someone Won’t Make Them Right For You

Love isn’t a magic wand that fixes everything wrong

Love doesn’t mend the broken pieces or erase the cracks that were there from the start. You can pour your heart out and fill every moment with affection, but it doesn’t turn a mismatch into a perfect fit.

Loving someone doesn’t mean they’re right for you, any more than wearing the wrong size shoes means they’ll never be comfortable. No matter how much you convince yourself that the blisters are just temporary, you’ll always feel the pinch. Love can be a beacon, a guide, but it doesn’t always light the path to a harmonious life.

When you love someone who doesn’t fit into your world, it’s like trying to dance with a partner who doesn’t know the steps. You might move together for a while, but the rhythm never quite aligns. You spin and twirl, hoping for a seamless performance, but all you get is a tangled mess of mismatched steps.

Love can’t fix what’s fundamentally misaligned. It’s not a tool for reconstruction; it’s a feeling. You might hold onto the hope that love will smooth out the rough edges, but sometimes, it just highlights the gaps. It’s like trying to patch up a worn-out coat with the most beautiful fabric – it might look good on the surface, but the wear and tear underneath remain.
