Maybe your first love is the one that sticks with you because it's the only person who will ever receive all of you. After that, you learn better. But, most of all, no matter what, a piece of you forever remains left behind in the heart of the one you loved - a piece no future lover could ever get, no mater what. That piece holds innocence - the belief that love really can last forever. It holds friendship and pain, trial and error, that one kiss you’ll never forget and that night under the stars you can never get back. It holds youth and everything you thought love would be. Everything that was proven wrong.

To put it another way, people are people and people fall in love with people. Some people have a narrow spectrum of who fits into their scope of potential mates and some people have a wider scope of possibilities. Again, it comes back to this: 'There is no accounting for attraction.' This is proven every time someone who fits into a category outside your usual scope of attraction (whether it be the gender, the hair color or the fact that he'd rather play football then read a book) knocks your socks off and you know he or she is not your 'type,' yet you can't stay away. In these situations, there is no need to fret. Just repeat after me: "I'm OK .' 'There's no accounting for attraction.' That's really the bottom line. You're going to feel whatever you are going to feel, and you can't place a judgement on it of good or bad or right or wrong or normal or weird. They're feelings. We don't have any control over them. So, feel whatever you feel, and then make thoughtful choices about what you do. The doing is the part you can control.

A healthy relationship keeps the doors and windows wide open. Plenty of air is circulating and no one feels trapped. Relationships thrive in this environment. Keep your doors and windows open. If the person is meant to be in your life, all the open doors and windows in the world, will not make them leave. Trust that truth.
