6 Things That Could Happen If You Choose To Become Anti Love

Being anti love sounds like the last resort for anyone who has ever experienced heartbreak. From that perspective, forgetting about love entirely sounds like the best way to move on and protect yourself. But is it really the right choice? Would you prefer to be anti love instead of remaining open to love in the future?

When you choose to become anti love, you are choosing to reject any form of romantic love that may come your way. You could stop pursuing it or prevent any opportunity for it to come into your life again. If you choose that path, this is what could happen:

# You won’t entertain any suitors or pursue any crushes

Isn’t that the point of being anti love? Preventing the cause of heartbreak before it even starts? That’s why you constantly hear people saying, “I will never date anybody again!” after they experience a particularly traumatic breakup.

# You will start to rely on the love of your friends and family alone

That can be a good thing, but it could also manifest in negative ways, like when you become too clingy or too involved in your friends’ and family’s lives. It’s okay to take comfort in your loved ones, but make sure that you’re not transferring your feelings of loss onto them.

# You won’t feel the same way you used to when you see other people in love

Before becoming anti love, you either appreciated other people’s relationships or harbored a healthy kind of envy for it. When you reject love, you won’t be able to see the good parts because all you’ll be able to focus on is everything that could go wrong. This could be harmful to your relationship with other couples. They may see you as a negative influence that they need to avoid in the future.

# You will actively avoid any chance to be in love

You will reject set-ups and blind dates, will refrain from online dating, and even avoid the guy or girl who has a crush on you at the office. You will put more effort into avoiding love than healing yourself from the pain you’ve experienced. The problem with this is that you’ll be putting so much work into something completely unnecessary, which will just drain you and make you feel even sadder and angrier.

# You could end up pushing people away

Being anti love could turn you against the people who want to show you love. You never know when someone special will come into your life, but you might end up blowing your chance at being with that special person who could change your mind about being anti love.

# You might not like being alone

And that is the final takeaway in all of this. By rejecting love, you may end up rejecting all sources of it and end up alone. Why? Because not being open to love means being closed off to any and all ways that it could touch your heart
