EXPIRY DATE!!!!

It is never easy to let go of your loved one, in this case I’m not referring to your parents or friends, but your Romeo or Juliet. We invest a lot in love with hope that it will last forever. We fight and argue with fear that our investment might go to waste. But just like most things in life be it a need or want, love has an expiry date, and we have been taught that when something has reached its expiry date, you throw it away and get a new one.

It is funny how we ignore and not pay attention to signs both verbal and nonverbal that our relationship is hitting rock bottom.  We seem to react on the last and final stage and start putting blame on several factors that might have played a role in breaking up process. Just like expired milk, you do not ignore the sour taste and drink it anyway, so why should we do the same for relationships. If there is something wrong between you and your partner, do not hesitate to leave your partner and get a new one, because something that has expired is sickening to your health.    

I’ve had my own fair share of break ups, and I must say there is no greater fulfilling feeling than that of letting go. I simply look back at the good times I had with my ex, and deep exhale the words “shoop it was fun while it lasted. Next better player” Some see me as promiscuous, but the truth is I’ve learned to adapt to every situation that I may come across in life this include letting go when the going gets tough. I’m not saying leave your partners when the going gets tough, but rather think about what are you holding on for? The best before bar-code of love expiry date is written in your heart. Only your heart can tell how much bulls#*t can it tolerate? And how long can it persevere an already dying love? This reminds me of Karyn White lyrics as she sang “I won’t be a fool, fool for love, because I know I’d rather be alone than being unhappy.”

Anyway it’s my opinion. What do you think?
