What you're doing is not avoiding the hurt, but running away from the truth. Accept & have control over it - whatever it is that you feel - there must be a reason why Allah placed such feelings in your heart.
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
Often times, society has placed an underlying meaning to how things work in life.
For those who may seem innocent, kind, timid and religious are often referred to as someone who does no mistakes in life. Perhaps if any, one that is too little to be considered as a mistake.
On the contrary, those who may seem otherwise are regarded as the exact opposite.
Every little things done wrong are considered as humongous and unacceptable errors.
We forget that we are humans.
"To err is human."
It is in our nature. Perfection isn't a part of us. Never was and never will be.
So what does this exactly have anything to do with the quote at the beginning?
This is to point out that, even the one regarded as someone worth looking up to in the society, they too, make mistakes. Whether they may be unintentional or otherwise, only Allah knows.
We should always remember that no one on Earth is far from committing a sin. What's important is that we learn to reflect and seek for repentance from our Lord, Allah.
To have romantic feelings for someone else, that's "fitrah".
This, is in our nature. We're not supposed to push it away and deny it. The Qur'an was brought down for a reason. It is Allah's way of showing His Mercy; our guide to His straight path.
It's not wrong to fall for someone. To have control over those feelings, that remains the question.
Do not misunderstand a certain situation. Learn to look through things and not just jump to conclusions. *reminder to myself as well.
And to relate this as a whole, even the one regarded as "religious", they too fall in love. They too have feelings. They too are humans. There are no difference between us all as His servants. What may differ may be the way we show and prove our loyalty and love to Allah.
"La taqrabu zina." Those words brought down by Allah were for a reason.
Who knows us better than Our Lord Himself?
Do not mislead yourself into thinking that they (as referred above) do not have feelings. They too want to experience love like everybody else on this world. Just that they chose to do it in the way that Allah pleases.
Not driven by lust, but driven truly by love.
One of my favourite quotes,
"Kalau benar cinta, mahu bersamanya ke syurga. Apa-apa yang membawa ke neraka, itu bukan cinta namanya." - Hilal Asyraf.
"If it is truly love, then you choose to be with your spouse to Jannah. Whatever it is that brings to His Fire, that would not be called as love."
Well it sounds better in Malay ^-^
So for those who have felt pain and disappointment, do not lose hope.
What's vital is that we realize that to Allah is where we place our hopes, wishes & prayers.
Change for the sake of Allah, do it step by step, towards loving Him, His Messenger and yourself.
You'll come to realize that all this would be enough.
And when the time is right, He'll present you with the best. Have faith, for Allah is the best of those who plot :)

There's more than what meets the eyes.
A servant of Allah ♥
The world is full of fallacy and yet we often fall for it. "Keep on believing; never lose hope in Allah's rahmah for He has knowledge of things that you have no knowledge of."
"Death is an unexpected and unpredictable thing. Allah SWT had mentioned in the Quran that every soul shall taste death. When every next moment could be our last, what have we done today that could guarantee our entrance to Jannah in the Akhira?"
"When it may seem like no one understands, believe.
When it may seem like it's too hard to bear, believe.
When you feel as though you're all alone, believe.
Believe, because no one understands you better than the Almighty Creator. Believe, because Allah will provide you strength and does not tests you unless He knows that you could bear it. Believe, because Allah has always been there with you, every step of the way. So don't ever give up hope, don't ever give in to the dunya, don't let anyone stop you from staying in the straight path because 'Innallaha ma'as sobireen.'
Keep on believing." ;]
Reminder
Whatever it is that you chose to do in your life, lead it where Allah pleases.
Dare to dream big.
Always have hope in Allah, He'll never disappoint you :)
May Allah always provide us with strength to strive for His Jannah in this world for an everlasting happiness in the akhira. Amiin.
