General

I do not believe in mutual love. Everyone loves differently, in their own ways.

There is no such thing as true or fake love

no and im not really sure if i'm capable of it.

I would say that I "love" my crush but I'm not dating her so I don't think it's true love or anything yet. Plus I don't know if she loves me...
I'll wait it out.

Being in love is hard. It's really about putting someone else's feelings and needs above what you want. It's taking time out of your day to check in on them and to be with them when they're going through hell and back. It means knowing how to tell the other person when they've hurt you and understanding why they hurt you when they did. It's really a full on responsibility, but it's also the most amazing feeling ever. Because, for once in your life, you can know you have someone who is going to be by your side in this crazy, cold thing that we call life.

yeah true love is fresh ding dong bakery nam say like

yeah, it was great. to this day, i'm still not sure if it was romantic or just platonic love, but it was powerful just the same. you always had someone to talk to and comfort you, and you actually felt full and warm and wanted and just... loved even despite all your nasty flaws. haha, we actually made a vow to accept each other no matter what we had hidden inside of us and always be there for each other.

but it's honestly not worth the emptiness it leaves behind when it inevitably ends. moving closer to the fire means the cold will feel twice as bitter when it goes out.

No, no I have not.
I don't know if I will in this lifetime.

[quote=renaflor]Can't say that I have. The closest thing to being in love I've ever gotten was all just infatuation, and for shallow reasons, like looks.
Then again, I've only ever legitimately [b]liked[/b] ONE guy in my entire life, but it ended badly and now we hate each other.
Hopefully someday I'll find someone that actually likes me. [/quote]

wow this is basically my life.
guys just refer to this reply to get the lowdown on my previous love history :o

No.

One of the things I still find difficult to emotionally (not theoretically) fathom is the concept of "true love".

I don't understand why people are so willing to looking past the faults of another person by way of arbitrarily misplaced value. That of which, often leads to such impractical positions in one's life, even to the point of destroying it.

Compensating for Asperger's via external mimicry and theoretical understandings only takes me so far.

makes you feel like you have a meaning in life

[quote=iDrinkOJ]Idk. I've only loved in a obsessive way, an infatuation way.
Think about her all the time.
Want to spend every every min of the day and night with her.
Want her attention 24/7.
Thinking she is perfect in every imagineable way.
Want to spend the rest of my life with her.
Miss her when she isn't around.
Influence by everything she is and does.
Feeling hurt if she does little things that get me jealous.
Extremely happy when we talk, spend time with each other, always making each other laugh, love the attention she gives me.
Feeling loved when she tells me how she feels and things about her life.

I've only ever loved one person and I didn't know how much I love her until she left.[/quote]

-tear drop

I want to say yes.
I'd simply describe it as just wanting the best for someone even if it's not you. Not in an angsty way, but just worrying about someone and willing to be angry for them and at them.
Hating someone yet still loving them.

I wanna say I have been, but she didn't feel the same way.

When I did truly love someone, then yeah, I have been in true love. But b/c I'm single rn w/ forgotten memories, I dunno if they were tru or naw.

- Happy to be around them
- Wanting the best for them, sharing their successes and failures
- Wanting to become a better person, work on my flaws like impatience
- Feeling like I can do anything
- Having a more optimistic view of the world and life because of their optimism
- Whenever you see something and immediately thinking "he would like that" and sharing it with them
- Whenever something big happens, they're the first person you share it with and they celebrate with you or give you a shoulder to cry on
- You don't see them everyday because you each have your own busy lives and things to do, but when you do see them you're super excited and never run out things to talk about

Amazing and undiscribeable.
Never feeling alone, always having some one to talk to, having a person who cares.
When you lose it you'd rather wish you never had it in the first place just so you would not miss the feeling so much.

I thought I was and she told me she was (after knowing her for 7 years, you'd think we'd be able to decide), but as it turned out, she wasn't. It was such a blast being with her, but it ended sourly.

yes... most entirely. it was the best and the worst.

now i don't care anymore about him. but it's hard for me to connect to people. it's once in a blue moon when i like someone.

no, i have too many personal issues.

It's weird because i'm aware of all my problems yet I don't try to fix them

Thinking about her every day.
Thinking about how much better she is than you.
Thinking about how much better she can do than you.
Never saying no to her.
Thinking she'll always come back to you no matter what.
Always having a feeling that she'll randomly text you after months of not talking.

There will never be anyone better than her.

No I hate everyone >.<
