in love?

Have any of you ever been in love?

How would you descirbe it?

Someone once told me that if you have to ask yourself, "Am I in love with him/her?" then you are most likely not in love. If you are, you won't even have to question it. You'll just know.

I'm glad to say that I'm in love, and its indescribable. So to those of you who have fallen in love, when was your first time realizing it? How old were you? How many girlfriends/boyfriends did you have before you fell in love?

ahh, love..

love? I have fallen for it once and will never fall again.

maybe...

In love = infatuation

Loving someone = patience, compassion, respect

Being In Love with somone is usually what happens right out of the gate. It burns off like so much chaff, like so much membrane. Loving someone takes time, effort, and maintenence.

There may be this so called "love", but true love will be almost impossible to find.....

I guess you could say I'm cynical >__>

love doesnt exisit, its your brain telling you this feeling

Can't say that I've ever been in love. Been in good relationships, but never felt crazy about someone.

youre crazy : p

I think I have been once.

I've never been in love. I've been strongly attracted to someone, but that's not the same thing. I was only 15 at the time; raging hormones messed up my judgement.

Love continues to grow deeper with time, so even if being in love is just infatuation, cant infatuation turn into love?

I've been in love before... I've had that feeling. The hardest part is getting over the girl.
My best advice is to just live life and give it time. Love takes patience. When you give it time, maybe then you'll meet the right person.

I think it can. Just don't rush it, or don't let it be rushed upon you.

Of course. When someone is special to you (platonic or not) you just want to be good to them and for them to be happy, this is the basis of love. You can love a dog, a wife or even the whole world.

What I meant by dividing the two is because there is always a cooling-off period with a romantic relationship. There is that hump about 3-9 months into it when your mind's eye really sees the person. You have had enough time spent with that person to really understand who they are. Reality hits and you realize they do things you may not like or agree with; like slurp their soup, become critical of strangers or just don't clean up after themselves very well. This is when the patience comes into play.

In order to stay in love with someone you need to decide everyday and treat it like the first. Loving someone will come naturally right on it's heels.

I've only ever had crushes on girls in my life.

Don't take the person for granted. Treat it like the first day means look at the person like you've never seen em before. Encourage the things you guys did together to continue to happen, like nookie-sessions, just laying and staring with a smile, picnics - whatever. Hold hands frequently, talk about likes/dislikes, dreams, wishes or plans. Keep it new by "treating it like the first".

[QUOTE="Bioshockraptor"] So you're saying that you feel love at 14 years of age?AAllxxjjnn

I'm 16. and yeah I think you can feel love at 16..

Alright..

I'm in love right now !

:]

Read my current blog.

That is my explanation for love.

Love is like stalking, but without the travel

yeah id like to think so :P

No I guess I havn't. I've got over alot of the relationships and attractions I've had in the past which I then thought was love. Meh.

:lol: that sounds pretty true

I believe I was in love once. T'was unrequited though, and it wasnt in a creepy way. Just nothing came of it.

I don't think I have ever actually been IN LOVE with someone. On a side note, some people seem to think there is a "true love" out there somewhere, which I think is just bull crap.

I'm currently in love, but i didn't open up to her yet because whenever she's near i'm breathless and can't move most of the time. She is the most beautiful girl i've seen in my life, I'm in love with her for a very long time and I would do anything for her, just can't make the move yet.
