Falling in love is one of the most exciting experiences in life. The first time can be filled with anxiety and fear of whether you will live up to the person's expectations or whether you will stay in love with that person for the rest of your life.
However, irreconcilable differences can lead to a breakup and people opt to move on. Despite moving on, people never forget their first love.
Here are three reasons why we never forget our first love.
1. First loves show how it feels to be cared for by someone who isn’t family
It is always a great feeling to be able to have someone who you are not related to by blood yet they are very willing to help you in difficult times. The connection becomes so powerful to the point that you realise you care about them like you never did before.
2. First loves shows what love feels like
It does not matter how your first relationship ended. Having amazing emotions and feeling towards your first partner is unforgettable. The memories of getting your first kiss and the times you spent together will not be erased despite moving on with a different partner.
3. First loves teach us how to love again
Since people have different beliefs, opinions and perspectives towards life situations, your first love might work out well or not. In case it doesn't, you are able to check what you did or never did that could have contributed to the breakup and know how to handle future relationships better.
