What's it like to be in love?

It's pure bliss when it's answered and really sucks when it's not. And when you realize that butterflies in your belly feeling isn't nonsense you know you're in love as well

 

The initial phase involves seeing purely how utterly amazing that person is. You feel invincible, beautiful, powerful. You live more fully than you would "normally". It's a massive secret between just the two of you. Gazing into eachothers eyes is the most magical sparkly feeling in the world. You share everything of eachother, you explore eachothers minds and bodies freely and openly and you feel like you've found your home. It's safe, it's exciting, it's everything to you.

A few months down the line the intense drug-like effect calms down and you know a lot more about eachother, you develop things that are needed to form a stable relationship like mutual respect and allowing eachother some space rather than it being constant full-on intensity, and you realise that the person has faults just like any other. They are human. This stage is even more exciting than the first one. It involves forming a close and durable bond rather than just being a great big whirlwind. It's more real.

After years, any problems which are major will have begun to show, and this is where the real work comes in. Being in love involves pain sometimes aswell as that bubbly joy, and you have to accept that at this point. You still get the wonderful little things like yearning to hold hands when you're apart, feeling incredible when you're close etc. Really, the whole thing is pretty awesome.

 

love is the stuff that makes all the other mundane boring shit we have to live through worthwhile :sunny:

 

love evol ........... backwards
live evil ............ backwards
devil lived ........ backwards

now happiness is like a warm gun
you see you would understand that when you spent a week in bed
with a warm gun ...

love is akin to happiness
but better, its like happiness on wingo
love is ecstatic not plastic
[sometimes happines can be plastic but its not like love the real thing]
now love is not sexxx ... its better than sex
because you actually like the person youre having sex with

but now this is just the erolove
i assume you speak of ROMEantic love ... right Juliette ?
Because there are other kinds of love
like the guy with the balls of his dog
like princesses kissing frogs
Now ROMEantic love shouldnt be confused with the things they do in Rome
............ especially the Vatican
now the ecstatic part of love is like a drug
some say this feeling is better with drugs
but you dont need the drugs to have it
some drugs and booze an make you loose it
its already WIRED into your brain
where your heART lies on the right side of your brain
not the WRONG side of your brain

i hope this cleared up any CONfusion
if not take the INfusion
the magic potion that desolves any notion
that love is what you think it is
love potion number 9
you will know love in time

dont get supersticious
that love is repiticious
or anything you think it is
love is easy-going free-flowing
overflowing and always growing
love is just knowing
and will always keep you going

love is who you are
be-you-T-full brilliat shining star

 

It feels horrible. Though I've only ever experienced one-sided love...

 

what if the answer's "no?"

 

It feels nice, quiet, calm. It takes away tension. Being with him makes me feel complete and still and in the moment. I like just being in the moment with him, doing things for him, those reminders of how he feels about me by virtue of what he says or does. I feel at home with his body. I know his intentions and his spirit.

We can talk about the future and no one's scared or awkward. We plan things three, five, seven years out, and it's easy and okay and no one panics. I don't want to be with anyone else. There's no "what if."

 

it's like going to the toilet:

- you're desperate for it
- you try and get comfortable
- you put everything you got into it
- you get little out
- you linger for a while
- try and clean up the mess
- put your pants on
- and feel relief that it's over.

 

like the old saying goes...which I'm going to alter a bit..

Being in love is like peeing your pants...everyone can see it but only you can feel the warmth.

 

How poetic given the fact that love has brought down nations and great civilizations for countless millennia


Hotwater

 

And we (humans) have seen it...but only the victims have felt the warmth

 

It's a friendship which grows everyday, from puppy love where you never fight and are always happy to see each other and rip each others clothes off, to pure love where you argue like badgers, but you honestly feel like the other person is a part of you.

And after the little arguments and them learning all your weird habits, you'll come to let them truly know you. When you feel complete comfort and inquenchable passion for someone, that's love.

Even when her cookings terrible, so you cook everyday because you don't want to tell her.

 

Well, it's really quite simple. It's kind of like...Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight, gonna grab some afternoon delight. My motto's always been "when it's right, it's right", why wait
until the middle of a cold dark night?

When everything's a little lighter in the light of day. And, we know the night is always gonna be there anyway!

Thinkin of ya's workin' up my appetite, looking forward to a little
afternoon delight. Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks
ignite and the thought of lovin' you is gettin' so exciting, sky rockets
in flight. Afternoon Delight.

AAAAAFternoono delight!

 

It also very exciting and leads you to make irrational decisions.

Love is like cocaine.

 

being in love is being able to have rukus, sweaty sex after playing a giant nerd fest chess session and that not be weird at all.

 

Being in love is magical. To love and be loved in return is the best feeling in the world.

When you're not loved in return, that's the worst feeling in the world. It fucking hurts like hell.

 

hmmm ... and for ppl who havent used cocaine ?
definition ?

cocaine doesnt last very long
is love like that ?

 

Definitely. I really wasn't prepared for the high level of emotional pain that unrequited love causes. I've endured many mentally scarring things in my time, but I can definitely say the pain I felt from loving someone with all my heart who then threw that back in my face created the most painful feelings I've ever felt.

 

I don't think it's ever possible to be prepared for such a thing.

 

yep. if you're not in love, after-chess sex is typically bone-dry.
