Oh well.  Where do I start? There were just a lot of realizations on this just recently.  And now coming out from a break up, I felt wiser.  Here are the things that I learned:

1. Actions speak louder than words.  Same goes to no actions and silence.  It all says a lot as compared to words that had been said.  It all ties up together revealing to you what is truly happening.  

2. Follow your gut.  The heart is foolish.  But the gut knows.  Somehow it is connected to your destiny and to your true being.  And when the heart doesn't listen to the gut, that's when we make all the stupid decisions.  You know that tinnie winnie voice in you that tells you that there is and there could be a hope for this.  And so you hope and expect, and you find yourself frustrated and disappointed. 

3. Don't risk a lot on something or someone you're not even sure of.  Need I say more? 

4. Don't get into a relationship casually.  It's easy to get in it, but it could be hard to get out of it especially when there are already feelings involved.

5. When it comes to breaking up, walk out with pride and dignity.  Martyrdom scores high in love, but really seems pathetic. Drop all baggages and go. 

6. Best revenge is to live happier and be a better person.

7. Guys don't usually tell their feelings upfront.  So try to fish for it.

8. Listen with your ears and heart.

Oh well, this learnings on love will just go longer.  And I'm happy I did learn. I loved and lived. And will keep on loving and living.
