Forbidden love relationships take many forms.
Whatever the reason, no one likes having their love life under the careful watch of the people in their life yet we all discuss other people’s relationships and can’t stop from thinking what others think of ours.
One thing is for certain, falling in love isn’t something you choose to do. This is proven by the fact that we rarely fall in love with the people who are our best match.
Our heart or soul or our body’s chemistry (whichever is most believable to you) chooses for us.
