Everyone is on a one-way trip through life. Whether you believe in reincarnation, it won’t happen until another lifetime. Love poems, love notes, lovers hugging, billboards reminding of love and romance, romantic TV series and movies; there sure is romance everywhere. But, why does it seem difficult to love me?…
