Do you believe in love?
This is a good question.
I believe in wanting someone so badly that it makes it hard for you to live without even thinking about him or her. I believe in feeling good just by having her or him next to you. I believe in being in love more then i believed in myself and that’s probably what keeps me going.
But then again what is love, do we even know love or is it just the idea of love. Could we even recognize love if it wasn’t from what we’ve heard read saw, if it wasn’t for other’s ways of telling/showing us how “love” is supposed to be would we know it. Isn’t it because of this that we bring our self down when we can’t find love but in reality we aren’t seeking our love we’re seeking the love of a great promise of a fantasy. How can one find love if he/she doesn’t even know what is it for himself and as only for examples others.
Scratch all that, I would believe in love, if one day i get to experience it for myself, to feel it ways that only i would know about, I would believe in love when i get to experience it from my point of view not from others. I might die trying and i might never see my love come true but I believe I want to believe in a greater love out there then the love we know the love we share read about in book and see in tv, a love not explore or even one that as been explore more then once, I’m searching for that love, that unexplained love because once it can’t be explain it’s when i, truly believe it’s been reach.

I don’t know what love is. In tennis it means ‘zero’. “He was down two sets to love”
I have found that the stronger I feel attachment to someone the break up is going to be a killer. The break up will push you almost over the edge. There is always…always…the break up. That’s just the way it goes.
So, I don’t search for love. I don’t even want love. No one, not a soul on this planet can possibly be everything for another. Maybe for a while, a year, two, ten years, but eventually all that gushy stuff fades and you’re left seeing all the pimples, dirt, emotional pain and insanity of another human. Dogs are better. Get a good dog.
WHY ONE, man i would plenty of dog lol.
Ha brilliant tennis metaphor… I wonder who called it that in the first place. I’ve also noticed that “love” is “evil” spelled backwards, only you’re too stupid to spell it right.
But yes, I surround myself with dogs so I know that love exists. That’s no joke. And I’m not just talking about the love they give, but the love they invoke in us… it’s unconditional and absolutely pure.
As for person-to-person love… it would be easy to dismiss it as an impossibility due to the complex social & emotional barriers we put up (unlike with dogs whom we’re not afraid to show our true ugly selves to, because we know they’ll love us anyway), but I think it can happen. I was in love once. And that’s a big statement coming from a terminally cynical & hateful swamp creature like myself.
I think the key to experiencing love is that you have to believe it’s possible. It’s like they say about hypnosis: some people can be hypnotized while others will not allow their minds to let go, so they can’t be. cant.fixme, it sounds like you believe in love, so I really think you’re going to find it. Even if it only lasts a short while. Or maybe you’ll hit the jackpot and find one that lasts a lifetime 🙂 Still, it never hurts to have a few dogs…
Salt, the more posts of yours I read, the more I become convinced of what a wonderful and brilliant person you are !
I remember you telling me about your past love.
If anyone out there deserves love, it’s you, my brother. As I always say, I would cut my throat to make that happen for you.
Give those doggies a little extra love for me 🙂
haha nop it never hut. thanks that was amazing.
Yes, love is possible. It just takes courage to throw away all the petty rationalizations we surround ourselves with, the reasons NOT to go for it…just toss them aside
Love is whatever you want it to be. It’s not possible for me so I don’t believe in it.
I believe in love. I do not believe in love in my life, though.
