“Tis better to have love and lost than never to have loved at all.”

– Alfred Lord Tennyson, In Memoriam

Love. Since we were young we have always been obsessed with that. We all want love and to be loved. When we find it we don’t want to give it up. If we do then what do we have left?

I found my love at 18. I was a freshman in college and he was a 23 year old college graduate. I found my love while I was working my night shift as a front desk clerk at one of the residence halls on my college campus. I found my love through the notorious little app Grindr. I would of never thought that almost five years later I would have to bury my love and the person that I thought I was with him.
