Heh, yeah, i'd kill for my boy, but sometimes i want to kill HIM too! Egging/taunting me to punch him doesn't help... -_- ...And yet, i wouldn't have him any other way. I like the fire, and i think most people in such relationships are the same, thriving on it and in some ways, feeding it. Of course, it's only nice when you're both burning, it is decidedly unpleasant when one is constantly fighting it and trying to cool things down.
If both of you are on fire for slightly different things, and for each other too, it's rough. Sometimes the flames start feeding on each other, and then a blaze goes out of control ... or else one burns out and leaves the other cold and angry.
very true! I think there needs to be a balance. Blazing fires all the time would be hell. That can also lead falling OUT of love very quickly. Kind of like how they say the more you fall in love, the closer you get to falling out of it.
I think both are possible. I know several people in both situations and it's all a matter of how each of them define love.
I've been in that situation. We loved each other uncontrollably, but she needed to leave me for some reason. We broke up pretty mutually in the end, but we did really love each other. And I mean a deep, I-could've-been-with-you-forever, ideal romantic love. It's something everyone should have, but you can't always hold on to it.
