Why love just isn't worth all that pain.

In our current day and age,
everyone is obsessed with this idea of love,
that having a special someone to be there for you is everything.
So maybe when I was younger,
I loved watching people in love/matchmaking people.
But lately, I have been thinking
What is the big deal about love?
Why does it have to come from this guy/girl?
What's so special about that?
I've never been in love
and I can safely say I never want to,
I might daydream once in a while
but that doesn't change anything
cause those are just dreams
love makes you weak.
love gives someone else this ultimate power over you.
and yes,
while there are people who are going to start giving me advice after this,
understand this first,
would it be wonderful to fall in love with this guy who is your prince charming?
yes, i'm sure it would.
but the question is at what cost are people doing that now?
Movies,books, advestisments.
they are all about falling in love and being happy after that.
that's a fantasy.
a really sweet but still a fantasy. it's not real.
you know what's the problem,
love is so widely advestised that it's not special anymore
it's just a need to feed someone's ego.
and i'm tired of people who keep telling me
to just open that door,
because maybe you're willing to get hurt like that,
let someone rip your heart into a million pieces
let someone hurt you like nothing has ever before.
but i'm not okay with that
so yes maybe i'm just not meant to fall in love.
because to me,
that mountain is too high a jump,
that gap across cliffs too far.
that bridge too shaky.
I promise you,
after this,
I will not ask you when your getting married/a girlfriend/a boyfriend
cause i'm tired of love.
I'm growing up and leaving that part of me behind.
