Why do people fear love? I understand that a lot of us have been betrayed and heartbroken and don't want it to happen again, but what about those of us that weren't heartbroken? And why fear something that generally feels so good to us? Society seems to fear this little 4-letter word immensely. I find that I LOVE tons of people, but I'm not IN LOVE with anyone...however, that may be because I've never truly let myself feel it or I haven't found anyone I can feel it with. However, I think I could easily fall in love with someone. My father once told me that I'll know when I find that special person because I'll WANT TO tell them how I feel and I'll WANT TO put in extra effort. Do you think this is true? Have you found this?
i think ur dads right, i once told a lad i loved him coz he said it to me, and the words just wernt right. when i told my hubby i loved him for the first time it felt completley right to say it, and now i tell him about a million times a day so he will never forget. i always thought i wud never fall in love, i never wanted to either. but now i couldnt imagine not being in love and that actually scares me a hell of a lot more. the idea of falling out of love would leave me completley empty inside, coz love kinda takes over everything. it sure makes ur life very different. but i did used to be scared to fall in love, coz as soon as u tell someone u love them, you are allowing them basically to see u at your most vunerable and trusting them not to break your heart now they have it.
don't worry about finding love your still young, am sure you will find it-loose it-find it and so on, as we all do, unless your one of the lucky ones, who finds that one special person, which lasts a life time.
I totally agree with your dad. I met someone and I told her about my feelings for her and she also told me that she loved me.lol
