curious (good thing I'm not a cat huh? lol) but isn't falling in love for the wrong reasons, still falling in love? Yes.. There are also levels of love.. You can love someone and not be "in love"... very true. I love my ex husband but not in love with him |

Relationships are filled with positives and negatives. Sometimes all you see are the positives because that's all you want to see. Later on sometimes the negatives you do see outweigh the positives you thought you saw.

You can love someone and not be "in love"... very true. I love my ex husband but not in love with him Well, I'm speaking of those who thought they were actually "IN LOVE"...to find out later that they weren't. I just didn't think that emotions could be that flexible is all ![]() |

Just to add my $.02
People who make this claim are not in love. They are simply attracted to a person. Attraction is instantaneous. You may like a person's looks, mind, humor, charm, wit, whatever....it's all attraction, and you will even experience some emotional attachment as a result. The problem is that most people think this is love and will claim a relationship, only to find out later on down the line that you don't have a lot in common, you don't share the same beliefs, one may have a five-year plan, the other doesn't, etc. You then claim that Oh I thought I was in love, but I found out I wasn't. Please. Love is a state of being and it takes time to develop. SERIOUS time. To be in love comes from knowing someone inside and out. Finding out that you have the same interests, goals, dreams, desires, etc. You find that you cannot be apart from this person for extended periods of time. You will put their needs and wants ahead of yours. You don't lose out because if they are in love with you, they will put you ahead of them. The beauty of love is that is defies emotions. If you stop loving a person because they made you mad, or because of any emotional reason, you were never in love. Two people in love will face any situation, good or bad, through thick and thin, as long as they are together. No outside circumstance can break the bond that two people in love share. I have witnessed homeless couples that sleep on the street together, but they are in love and don't even consider separating. That's all. PS Hi cutie! |

only been in love once.....it has escaped me ever since. never thought i was and wasn't! I think some never have been so they try and create it!

I don't know if they try to creat it Ronny... I think some don't know what love is and think they're in it for a lot of the reasons Fenway mentioned... It's an emotion and some emotions are hard to define so some I think get confused by the emotions they are feelings...

..I found out later on that I WASN'T" ![]() I've heard this from people that I know in RL ![]() So... How exactly does that work to THINK that you are in love and not know it for sure until later on into the relationship? ![]() |

It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow It must have been love, but it's over now >From the moment we touched till the time had run out It must have been love, but it's over now It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without It must have been love, but it's over now It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows |
