Love and Hurt Go Side By Side

Why is it that when we are hurt by someone, we tend to just go right back. No 
matter how much pain we go through we just stay there trying to hold on to 
something that is not there. Year after year goes by but your still stuck in that one 
position and feel like your life is going nowhere. So after you have had enough, 
you move on and leave all those years of hurt behind you. And then one day 
happiness appears. Your skeptical at first but say what the hell, I might as well try 
and see what comes from this happiness. It feels really good to smile and be  
happy again. You start to gain weight from the happiness your heart is feeling. 
You start to think wow miracles really do happen. But then your happiness is 
ruined once mistakes keep happening. The more mistakes that happen the 
more you start to think of all the years of hurt that you try to put behind you. Does 
one really get over the past? Can one really trust someone new? Does one even 
trust their own shadow after being hurt so much? Do we tend to push away the 
one who really cares for you and loves you just because your scared that they are 
getting to close to you? Do the mistakes the one you love makes have you 
doubting if they are really the one? Do we compare the mistakes the one you love 
does to you to our past? Do you really think that the one you love and feel all of 
this happiness with is really worth your trust? These are all questions that are 
running through my mind right now. And I just wish I really knew all of the 
answers.
