no body wants to admit the truth about love. the truth is that love is hell and when you're doing it right you're gonna experience some pain. we tolerate all sorts of crappy moods and bad decisions and we hand over the keys to our shame and our dirty secrets knowing that they're gonna get used eventually, at least by accident or in a moment of weakness because human beings are frail, you know? really fucking frail.

the other thing no one wants to admit is that sometimes love isn't enough to keep things together and anyone who says different is a liar or hasnt been in love yet. all relationships end. whether someone walks away or somebody dies, it's gonna be over one day. when you're face down in the dirt because you left someone or they left you and you're blaming God for not inventing some kind of temporary death so you can check out for a few months and avoid all that crazy pain and cursing your stupidity for losing everything you paid for in blood...well...that's when we realize we're...you know...just the most desperate we can be to believe that the love was real. right? because if you cant believe then you spend the rest of your life terrified that everything else is gonna be a lie too. if you cant believe it was all real, right there when you're pathetic and naked and in the gutter, you sure as hell dont wanna step up for another fist in the mouth. and that's what love is; it's a fist in the mouth and people spend their lives waiting for the chance at a knuckle sandwich.

listen, at the end of the day, every human being has to understand that the love they feel is real even when they're at the end of their rope and cant hang on anymore. i mean, come on! that's how love works man! you hang on and hang on because it is real and not some fucking anemic copy of love that disintegrated the first time you got angry at each other or hurt one another! see? because that's what human beings do - we hurt one another and we do a fucking good job of it. that doesnt mean it isnt love. as a matter of fact, it's probably the best indicator that it is. it really is. it really, really is.
