I think you can be infatuated, in lust, enjoyment, have a crush - and many other ways of enjoying others company. First love however is an emotion in itself. It overpowers, imprints your soul. The first surge of what is your bodies most profound chemical overload. You never forget.
I remember: The first girl I said I love you to-it was a foolish, disrespectful ploy to get in her pants after a week of dating. dumb! I remember the first girl I thought I loved-never said it because I actually felt it. In retrospect, I wasn't really in love and neither was she. After four years, I am still with the one i first loved-It took a while to realize that it was more than other girlfriends. It is the first time that I've been willing to sacrifice my self for someone other than my blood family.
i remember her till this day!! how kan someone i loved treat me so bad and make me kry for so long, yup my furst love cheated on me but i tryed to ignore it kuz she took the time to make up lies and try to make me feel better! ever since her, ive only dated cheaters!!!
1st true love is sooooo incredible. God I wish I could synthesize that feeling and sell it. I would be so rich. I hope that each and every one gets to experience it. It may break you heart, it make break your spirit, it may break you, - but OH MY GOD, what a mind blowing experience. I have had to deal with my for 42 years - 36 of them married to another I love. But not my first love.
Yea i remember him, he was 14, i was 15, i can still remember his face, he meant everything to me, till i grew up...
the first time i fell in love was with my dads friend, omg he was hot, and i was jailbait back then , but i couldnt stop thinking of him and was always around when he came over, and then on my 16th birthday he kissed me on my head i was in heaven. i must have masturbated to his image in my head hundreds of times , lol.
About four years ago I decided if I couldn't experience love I was going to kill myself, even set a date. The whole idea that there was some great entity that was called love out there that I had never experienced made me feel incomplete as a person, I had sex once in a while, and very strong emotions for some of the women I was with, which were usually not returned. But I decided to give it the "ol' college try" first. Herman Hesse in his book Siddhartha said that if a person turns their whole self towards a goal, and commits themselves totally towards it, they cannot fail. So I did. I researched everything from "relationships for dummies", to "three questions that will make her your sex slave". I worked out, and, man, that day when one of the waitresses at work said,"hey!, have you been working out?", was a damn good day. When I felt I was ready I started trying to push some of the friendly relationships I had with women in a romantic direction, epic FAIL. Then I tried plentyoffish, and amongst the turds there was a gem, we exchanged mail, met, dated, and when I told her I loved her and she told me she loved me too that was a moment better than any I had ever experienced before. Drugs don't touch it, nothing touches it. The relationship was good for about 6 months, edgy for 6 months, then really great for another 6 months, then slowly died, we were the right kind of people to fall in love with each other, just not the kind to to spend the rest of our lives together. Sad. But, now I know love, that piece of the puzzle that is my life has been fitted into the whole. I will never set a "date" again, and my view of myself as someone who was somehow dysfunctional because I couldn't love is gone. Now I seek, but not too hard. C/O
Yeah you don't forget your first love - mine got taken away by parents, it was years ago. We found each other again and it was just like old times (except for being separated by 5 states) we might still get together...
I thought I was in love for several years, but I realized I was just a kid and I let him do some awful things because I was infatuated. Now that I am in love, I realize it's a totally different feeling. It does hurt to look back on what I went through, but I'm lucky now to have such a wonderful person who is perfect for me in my life.
I feel this way right now, I've fallen in love with a friend from Germany who will be returning home soon, and has a 'girlfriend'(If you could even call her a girlfriend) there awaiting his return. I've been trying to stop feeling this way, because I know it will hurt me in the long run, but I can't seem to make it go away, nor do I think I really want it to. We both try to push away from eachother, but it only brings us closer in the end... Such a confusing, wonderful thing love is...
No because love is the majority of the time at my age a byproduct of immaturity, and stupid decisions. Just recently I decided I'm saying fuck it to wanting a relationship with a good girl. Because it's kind of just plain stupid...it wouldn't be a good choice for me unless I am so thoroughly impressed by someone.. I had a "first love" but I really really hardly, pretty much 0%, have lasting feelings of love for them. It was a fucking mess, and not something I can appreciate
Just because the person is different? I'd like to know how the attachment is any different. It doesn't mean it's a bad thing, but make a choice, are you in love (infatuated) or not.... Too many a time do women try to distinguish between love and infatuation, like as some kind of key for finding the right guy. It's all the same. And it's a lot different than having love for someone.
:2thumbsup: same deal here. i dont think i was IN love, i think i just loved him but he screwed me over so i dont think it'll happen soon that was 4 years ago!!
I think probably you had first lust, or first infatuation, or first crush. When you feel first love, I think you'll see the totality, the depth, the "mind warp of it." First love never dies, it settles in the recesses of your soul and invokes eternal longing. This does not denigrate true love, eternal love - but simple establishes a base, a foundation for eternal love. But it is special - and it is intense. After 63 years I still feel it though first love physically departed 40 years ago. Be thankful for it. Get down on your knees and thank your God for it. The only true joy in life is love - - and ohhhhh that 1st love. Sooooo cool.
I remember my first infatuation: a high school teacher. He was cute and just my type, I think. For the 3 years since he came to my high school, my stomach dropped everytime I saw him. My day was complete seeing him. Despite the amazing feeling, I knew it wasn't going to happen. He was married, with kids, and much older than I was. I was mature for my age, but not that mature. I moved on, but I know if I saw him again, I'd still get those goosebumps and my stomach would drop to the floor. I haven't seen him in awhile... Despite all those feelings, they don't compare to my first love. So much more amazing when you can actually hold the person your with and get to know them. It still bothers me that it didn't work out, despite it ending almost a year ago. We just wanted different things I guess, and a relationship can't last if only one person wants to be in it I'm looking forward to a new relationship. I think it'll be awhile until I meet someone I really like. After having experienced what I have, a mediocre relationship just won't do. I know I can love passionately, all I need is someone to return it
