A short YouTube monologue by Derek Cole reflecting on three types of romantic love: the first youthful/innocent love that one later questions, the second painful/learning love marked by hurt and growth, and the third unexpected deep love that arrives unbidden and breaks down defenses. The piece is delivered as a single-speaker, poetic-personal reflection.
Did you know we fall in love with three people in life. Each one for a specific reason. The first love. This love often happens at an early age. You eventually grow apart or call it quits over silly things. When you get older, you may look back and think it wasn't love. But it was. It was love for what you knew loved to be. The second love, the hard one. You get hurt in this one. This love teaches us lessons and makes us stronger. Its love includes great pain, lies, betrayal, abuse, drama and damage. But this is the one where we grow. We realize what we love about love and what we don't love about love. Now we know the difference between good and bad and bad humans. Now is where we become closed. Careful, cautious and considerate. Now know exactly what we want and don't want. The third love. This one comes blindly. No warning. Creeps up on you silently. You don't go looking for this love. It comes to you. You can put up any wall you want and it will be broke down. Find yourself caring about that person without even trying. They look nothing like your usual crush types. But you get lost in.
