one love.

so, I'm sitting here before bed, completely disgusted with our society, once again.

Here's the reason: sex.
When did everyone decide that it was okay to just go and sleep with anyone and everyone, to throw morals and judgment out the window?
Ok, so I may be a little old fashioned, but whats wrong with that? What happened to loving and giving yourself to one person, to committing to them solely? I hear stories of girls sleeping with this guy, then that guy, not giving a shit. But seriously, how can that not be degrading on yourself? I may not know from experience, but it just doesn't seem healthy to me. And why does everything have to be all about experience, about living a full life and "experiencing" everything that you can? It frustrates me so much when I hear this from people. If you have one person that you love and enjoy life with, why do you need to go out and see what else there is? Same goes if you're not in a relationship. I do not believe that just because you aren't committed to one person, you need to go out and sleep around to feel some sense of wanting. Maybe I am being completely naive here, but this is how I was raised. I am sick of hearing about who "got with" who, etc. Not everything is about sex!
No movie these days doesn't have some sort of love seen in it, and if there isn't one, it doesn't seem nearly as captivating or enthralling. Sex sells, and that is very sad. Some days I wish that I could just see right into a person's soul; to know their deepest desires and wishes, and to see the beautiful and brokenness. To me, this is what truly makes someone attractive.
I, for one, cannot wait for the day when I will meet and marry the person that I will spend the rest of my life with. To share myself with them and know them inside and out.

I feel that I am often alone in this view, so it is sometimes hard to talk about. This is my outward expressions, opinions and releases, so please, just listen.

  1. i definitely understand where you are coming from. there is nothing wrong with wanting that, or valuing it, and it is definitely refreshing.

    but just because someone doesn't live their life the way you do (or want to), doesn't make it wrong.

    i think it's more of finding someone with similar values and morals from the get-go. otherwise the relationship can be damaging on both sides!
