    I wonder this. I just can't explain what I feel for my boy. Everytime the thought of us having our life together pops into my head I just get so happy, it's like I'm dreaming.

    when i go to meet him after work, i feel like there's no one else, but us. when he holds me in his arms, it's like time stops and there's nothing to worry about.

    knowing that he loves me as much as i do makes me happy, makes me want to scream at the top of my lungs that his love has comforted my broken heart and has helped me find happiness. he's what i always wanted, he's everything.

    Am i in love??? LOL!!!! have you ever felt like this? :p

    Hey! I know I commented about the same guy on a different post but I just wanted to say how beautiful and amazing that kind of contentment truly is. I remember laying with my ex-girlfriend on our Futon in our apartment in the middle of winter on our 20 pillows and cushion and we'd finally throw them all on the floor and go to sleep holding each other and spooning each other and all of the doubts and insecurities and fear and anger and uncertainty just fade. There is so much profundity contained in those supremely loving moments of just holding or carressing that silence can be better than any words and there is no other place on the earth that you would rather be. Just YOU and THEM and the complete knowing to your core of pure acceptance and harmony. It makes everything seem optomistic. Just don't stay attached to the future! I used to think of my time with my ex-girlfriend as "Our holy now." Our holy time together which could have ended at any moment for so many reasons petty or not; so I cherished each second as if time stopped. Each second was so rich and wonderful. She is a blessed human being. I finally got to hang out with her again after 8 and a half months. It sounds so beautiful. Just keep sharing the love! Peace~

    Love is the strangest emotion, impossible to understand, intangible to hold and yet it's the one constant in life outside of death itself.

    When you finally realise that it is love, it might surprise you, true love is such a subtle thing but therein lies it's real beauty, it goes deep, deeper than many often realise or can even perceive and thus it can often lie hidden until something good or bad happens to bring forth it's splendour, majesty, or sadly, brutal honesty.

    This is why it is better to have loved and lost to never have loved at all, because love pertains to all that is good and bad in life, and to never have experienced it in it's truest, purest form, is to never have truly lived.

    I guess all any of us can do is pray that we have the insight and courage to understand love for what it truly is when we have it, and not to only understand love for what it truly is when we have lost it, forever. Love is like this. It will either save you or destroy you but whatever it's course it will take you to the extremes of all human emotion whether good or bad, and that is life, and thus love is life.

    Every time I think I have found true love, it leaves. I can't honestly say that I know what love feels like any more, I have been hurt by those feelings very badly. I always thought that love was one thing, and being in love is another. Love to me is simple. It is when you just feel a certain way, that may different for every person. It is a chemical attraction between two bodies, and a mental tendency toward one another. Being in love though, is when you fully devote yourself to someone, and will do anything to make them happy, do anything to keep you together, get through the hard times the good times, and always do it no matter what. Being in love to me is trusting someone to always be there for me when I need and want them, and them trusting me to do the same, and me doing just that. When I am in love I wake up every morning thinking about that special someone, what I could do for them that day, what the day might bring. I incorpaorate that person into every thought, hope, and dream, and do all I can to make my dreams come to fruition. And never doubt anything about what I have with that person.
