In my class, there is a boy who sits in the last row, next the window. He seems always emerged in the book that he reads. He is the type of person who doesn't have many friends and he looks like a loner. Well that boy is me, and I cannot deny these descriptions, but I have my reason.
My name is Raise Parker and I am 16 years old. My way of spending my school life is a little different from the others, my motto is «Don’t do anything unnecessary», and I applied that in my way of living at school. That means that I need friends, but studying is more important, so I need to talk with them however learning takes the priority in class. How many vocabularies do you think I could learn during thirty minutes of break? But some people talk about something pointless during these precious time like "What do you want to do this week-end, or did you confess to him? Isn’t the chest of that girl really big?” I keep hearing these topics again and again in the classroom so sometimes I go outside, at my perfect spot, so I can read my book without interference. I can only relax there.
But these peaceful days ended two weeks ago and "LOVE" is at fault. It's not like I am completely uninterested in this topic, I just find it needless if you don't plan to marry the person. Let me explain, you confessed to a boy or a girl that you love and you go out together, so the goal is to become a married couple, isn't it? As for me, one day a girl confessed to me when I was a first years in high school, that surprised me because I am not that popular. After hearing her confession I lifted my hand towards my head in order to readjust my glass then titled my head a little and with a serious but not menacing face I told her:
«You said that you love me, and then marry me!”
I didn't intend to shock her or anything; i just wanted to know what she thinks about the topic.
"Hum...but aren't we too young for that...why don't we go out together for now?
The girl replied .Her face seemed confused, and her eyes were full of surprise.
At the end I rejected her. It's a shame, she was cute and that was the first confession that I ever received in my life, but I wanted to stay true to my principle.
I don't blame her, normal people will think about these things after they became a couple. But for me , as I already said I don't want to do something unnecessary , and a relationship who can't achieve its goal is unnecessary. Her reaction was normal, but it's imply that she never give a thought about it before or she thought that it was not necessary to think about it at the moment, so she never asked why did I brought up the topic, in other words she already considered the case that we might break up in the future . And that's the problem, breaking up , it's a term used too often when we talk about relationship between a boy and a girl , so that means that after breaking up they will go out with an another person and like that again and again , until they meet the certain person of their life. For a normal person that’s normal, as they said, it helps to gain experiences.

As for me I say: Are you kidding me, isn't that just a special training for divorce. If I knew that we will break up eventually, why do I need to involve myself in a pointless relationship like that?
I fully understand that you need to spend time together before getting married. Asking a girl in marriage is a big deal so you can't take it lightly. In my opinion you need to have at least a stable job before confessing to a girl in order to marry her, and the girl is someone that you know even a little, like about her true personality, how she treat her family, how she treat her friend when no one is watching, how she behave around the boys when you are not around, these are the basics for me.
I know that they can discover these things after becoming a couple. However, isn’t it too late if the concerned person shows a disappointing personality or they seem to be not in the same in the same wavelength? Then if problems like these cannot be resolved then they consider that breaking up is the only solution.
So in general the problem is incompatibility. For a couple even a married couple, this problem can destroy their bound like a paper suddenly soaked by water. In other word there is no guarantee that a relationship will last forever and that idea is completely against my principle, because I think that something pointless is unnecessary. So I came up with a solution, but what's I came up with is something seldom exists in this world or maybe inexistent and that's because the only solution is TRUE LOVE. The love which incite you to bear all things , believe all things, endure all things , hopes all things in consequent you can sacrifice your pride, your family , your personal interests and all for your partner . If you possess that type of love you can overcome the little or big incompatibility and that what is asked to that girl, by saying "marry me ", in other words I asked her if at that moment her love for me can overcome all the default that I might have without a second thought, bear all the responsibility from this choice and if she be is able to sacrifice many things to do so.
But unfortunately, at the time that girl ditched my question and responded with another question. I know that what I asked is something outrageous, and the chance for me to be in couple is not higher than the idea of the existence of alien. But even so, I hoped from the bottom of my heart that something like that exists. I know I am being childish and selfish, but everyone have their own principle of happiness and for me it’s my concept of TRUE LOVE in this depressing world.
Well, that's exactly what I thought, before a certain girl showed up.
