Real love

Have ever REALLY loved someone? So that you loved her/him more than you love yourself? And you were thinking of her/him 24/7? And you felt weak in knees when you saw her/him? And you found it hard to breathe?

 

Aye ...

 

yes i have.

 

yup indeedy

 

Yup-a-roni.

 

i still do i just havent been introduced to her yet!

 

Yes.And even better then that,it was/is true love.The first and only time in my 53 years on earth.It is the most sublime feeling I have ever experienced.

 

Do you guys agree with William S. Burroughs idea of what's love between a man and a woman is. That he thinks that it's just a mixture of sentimentality and lust.

 

If love is all you need, then I'm screwed.

 

Well.. This feeling of 'Love' is just a sensation of euphoira induced by the release of various chemicals (endorphins) in the brain, I am not sure if I have ever felt strongly enough about somebody to honestly say i was in love.

 

Oh woops!
I didn't know I was signed in on Wikis (8footsativa_chik) account. SHe came over to my house yesterday and I guess she signed in then. This is Vin (Osiry).

 

I don't know if thats totally true or not.I have been in the same state of "love" for almost 14 years with the same woman.If anything,my love for her has grown beyond measure.It came as I least expected it,and wasn't looking for it.
It's a beautiful thing.

 

I don't think science can really explain love. I think that not only is love the most powerful force in the universe it is also indescribable, I can not even describe what I feel when i think I am in love (you know those really strong crushes)

 

Yes I am afraid i have, it is such a sick overwhelming feeling, i think i understand it then I realize , i know nothing at all , I wish only my knees went out! When I think of her the world stops ( not many things really matter) but yet the things happening around me are a blur as if they were speeding by at super light speed. When I am with her(just in her company) I am untouchable I am unmoved by any nonsense or any faultered time. like a super virus it spreads on a daily basis getting worse and worse, the addiction is so worse than any i ever have experienced. Oh my gawd I love her dearly

 

i think love is a bit like an addiction. i have felt butterflys before meeting him and gotten the warm and fuzzy feeling when i think of him. now i just feel this need to see him, be around him, doesnt matter what we are doing i just feel a want, to be near to him. i definately love him, my heart is full. i wonder if he loves me too

 

Yes and I still do

 

I first felt love of any sort other than my mothers love, when I was 12.


I was at a commune in Vermont, and walking down the road and as I came around a curve, there stood a man a bit older than me.
He had long beautiful black hair, a black beard and mustache and a most beautiful smile.
He was talking to a woman, but as he looked over her shoulder and our eyes met and he smiled..
My first thought was"what is he doing with her, he's supposed to be with me?"
I didn't know where that thought came from as I had never met him before and he was quite older than me.
As I walked by we said hello, and I kept going but I couldn't get him out of my mind.
I learned his name was Larry and that it was his girlfriend he was talking to and he was 25.
A few weeks later I left the commune and did a bit of traveling ending up in California the next Spring, I still could not forget him. I felt that I just had to be with him.
On May 5th I left CA and thumbed back to Vermont and found him there building a house, I also found out he had taken his girl back to Ohio and broke up with her.
I went right up to him and told him that I had come back because I needed to talk with him.
We stayed in his tipi until the house was finished and he taught me about my soul, he taught me about karma and realizing.
He taught me what it meant to "be here now".
I loved him.
But alas, the weather grew cold and in the fall of my 14th year, we went our seperate ways.
I knew he didn't need a young girl going back to Ohio with him, and I didn't want him to feel obligated.
Some of the last words he said to me were "if we are meant to be together, we will be someday".

I went back to Virginia, and back into the foster care system, I was sent to reform school then to a private boarding school, we wrote but soon our letters couldn't catch up to our moving around, and we lost touch.
I never forgot him, and I kept his last letter in my wallet for years, until that wallet was stolen.

I had 2 children and a few relationships along the way but I would often think about him.
I guaged every other person I was with by how I still felt about him..often asking myself.."if Larry showed up right now, would I go with him?" and the answer was always "yes".
My heart was always with him.

27 years after I last saw Larry we found each other again.
That is another long story in itself.
When he called me, my legs buckled and I almost fainted at the sound of his voice.
5 months after he called we were together making plans to live our dream in the woods.
Soon after I came to Ohio, we were sitting at the table and he was cleaning out his old guitar case, there were old flyers in there for bands, and some old papers, he took it all out and had a pile on the table he was going through, I glanced over and I saw some writing that looked familiar....I picked up a piece of paper and ralized it was my last letter to him from all those years before, he had saved it.

So yes I believe in true love.
I believe in love on many different levels.

Without a doubt, and I'm married to him. After 9 years, he's still making me weak in the knees.

Hugs...
