New Week, New Beginnings?

It's 5:12am in the morning and I haven't slept a wink all through the night. Why was I up? Well I got caught up watching "Sex and the City" again and talking with two friends, a guy who's a very close and old friend; and a girl who's a new acquaintance but already very dear to my heart as she's a lot like me.
So let's call the guy 'Richard' and the girl 'Annabelle'. Richard is someone I can comfortably talk to about practically everything, he understands me even when I didn't want to be understood. He is one of those rare breed of friends you just click with and are very much free with and we had a history together. And Annabelle? She was a lot like me to be ignored. Her life story and pasts resonated with mine that it could have been my story. I was astonished when she first told me her story that I couldn't stop thinking to myself that she was my replica or twin from an alternate universe.
Richard was in love with me and so was I but I knew it could never amount to much so I had already brother zoned him before I could develop further feelings for him. He on the other hand didn't get the memo and was far too gone in that department that I was at a loss as to what to do in order to rectify the situation.
Annabelle for one was in love! When she told me, I was so happy it seemed I was the one in love. She proved to me that people like me were not totally lost causes, we can still find love. I guess you just have to keep searching if you really want it but I'd never know as I'm not searching. Am I?

What do you think? Can we still find love? Is love even real? And if it is, do you believe in it?
