Emotional Rollercoaster

Sometimes we pour our hearts to the people we think we love, but when that person doesn't reciprocate those same feelings we get hurt. We began to shut down and we stop allowing people into our hearts. We stop allowing people into our comfort zones, because once that happens feelings get involved. And once feelings are involved, life immediately turns into an emotional rollercoaster. A rollercoaster that has its highs and lows and when we hit rock bottom, we want to get off and stay off. Once the rollercoaster is done we vow that we will never put ourselves through that again, but of course we just keep getting back on for more. We know that it makes us have terrible butterflies, makes us sick to our stomach, and makes us want to cry, but we just can't seem to get off and stay off. But what is it about this emotional rollercoaster that draws us? It's the way we feel at its peak. When all we can do is smile from ear to ear and think about how that feeling will always beat the feeling when we are on the floor balling our eyes out. We remember the glow we have while we are riding this emotional rollercoaster.
