Why Some People Can Get Over a Heartache Quickly

"Just because certain things come to you quicker, it doesn't always translate positively to quality." - Dan Scotti

As I was drinking my steaming cup of hot coffee, I happened to stumble upon this quotation from one of my to-go-to websites to entertain myself, and that is Elite daily.

The contents are astonishing, plethora of information about people's success, hopes, dreams, heartaches, and devastation. It is filled with stories about writer's lives.

Early morning as I was going through my daily reading routine, I read this line from one of the writer's article.

This left me thinking. "This is very true."

It always amazes me how someone can get over someone post heartbreak by diving into another relationship in a drop of a hat.

Yes. Rebound relationships.

No one really likes that. Well, for the one doing it, I guess its their way to alleviate and totally eliminate the source of pain by having someone heal it for you. I suppose there's nothing wrong with the fact that you wanted to be saved. No one really wants to feel grief and sadness eating you up alive as time flows.

I've seen multiple friends going for this option. Take one of my friends, for example. She is breathtakingly beautiful. A woman that can make any man's head turn with just her presence alone. She's loved by many. She's rich, powerful, and career driven. But when she and her boyfriend of 6 years broke up because of "circumstances" that left her crying, depressed, and pained to continue life.

So, she's in single life. For some who's fresh out from a break up, this doesn't sound like heaven to them. This is ultimate hell.

With vulnerability, this blinds one's emotions and rationality.

So the first person who shows you the slightest bit of attention, you welcome that person with open arms. Just to heal your broken soul, just to save you from the pits of darkness, and just to make you feel sane again.

I've seen tones of these and people like this can't seem to enjoy the life of being single.

They chose the quickest way to heal.

And that is, to find someone new, to heal their torn state. Sometimes, they settle. They tell me, "You'll learn to love someone eventually."

That is weak.

I have my fair share of break ups, and I've been left fragile and weak and that compelled to jump to the next guy who'll show me the least bit of attention.

However, I decided to never settle just to satiate myself. I need to remain strong. I need to love myself, to be comfortable to walk on the face of this earth alone, so I'll be stronger, impervious to pain. So company will never be a necessity, but a choice.
