I know that we shouldn't be talking about our firsts love and heatbreaks when you're happily commited or whatever. Sabi nga nila mali pa ang lumingon sa nakaraan. Ayun o! But I know, deep down inside our heart and soul, iba talaga ang first love. Nandyan pa rin yan sa mga sulok sulok ng ventricles ng puso mo. It's not wrong, first love eh. Hindi naten maalis na epic talaga sila. :D
Out of many events in our life, one of these is the your first love. You may call them as puppy love, chuva love o kung ano mang love. What makes it important? It's the time when you actually don't understand the true meaning of love and then it became more important than anything else in your life.. at that time.
Eh ano nga ba ang basis ng first love? Theoretically, first love can happen in any age or not happen at all. But most of the 'normal' people, they fallen in love for the first time when they were teenagers. Eh yung excited ka pang magjowa at maramdaman lahat ng napapanood mo at nababasa mo. In that age, we mostly enjoys ourselves and study those new emotions in our fragile heart.
Well, yes. I, myself, very much experienced this kind of teeny bopper love. Hindi naman masyadong bata, sa edad na 13 years old ay naramdaman ko na to. First year high school. But most of the girls I knew, regret their first loves/boyfriends. Maybe it's a little tragic or too childish for them to admit that they fallen in love with someone at a very young age. Tragic or its a dream come true, cherish it. First love never dies, as they say.
I have never ever regret the first guy who I fell in love with. Seriously. I think. :) Feeling ko, he's one of the factors that's why I never have a short-period relationship until now. In fact, grateful ako na sya ang first love ko. Great guy. Never in our 6-month relationship that we encounter HUGE fight. Actually, we never fought at all. As in never. (sa pagkakatanda ko. haha!) He never gave me that 'trauma factor' when it comes to relationship.
So maybe the definition of first love lies in us. How you define and give meaning to the those 2 words is what makes those kilig and understated feeling your FIRST LOVE. :D
