Chitchat Concerning Love . . .

[CrazyNotChaotic]

Love is . . .complicated, and messy. It's unique, and defined by the people involved. It's scary and big and really fragile sometimes. I know all of this, but still, I don't know what love is. When I think of love I want rich memories, beautiful feelings, I want something that will last, none of that fluffy high school stuff, but if I don't have that, will I be able to have what I want? Do I have to start with something weak to aim for something strong? Will I have to submit myself to a casual thing, that I know won't last, to bother building something that will not only last but exist for an eternity. I want love that shines so strong people look at us and just feel the connection between us. I don't want it to be something annoying, too much PDA and cuddling in public. I want just to be able to walk side by side, shoulders barely touching, just talking and laughing like any person would with another, yet when people look at us, they sense a strong love. They sense something unique, something private, something beautiful. Can I have this? It's a scary thought, to have to start little and go big, of course I don't want to jump in headfirst and proclaim my undying love, I want simple beginnings that grow and strengthen into something stronger. I want the falling in love slowly, steadily. I guess all I'm doing here is writing down my fears about love, because what if I can't find that small beginning that grows, because I won't settle or even start to look at anything that looks fluffy and immature. What if I'm just not open to love?


(Ugh, well, sorry ^^", please don't mind my . . . well whatever this is. If you have any thoughts or want to talk about this sort of thingy, that'd be nice. I'm in a thinking mood, so yeah. Anyway, thanks!)

As the great Ted Mosby once said...


Kids, I’ve been telling you the story of how I met your mother, and while there’s many things to learn from this story, this may be the biggest. The great moments of your life won’t necessarily be the...


It'll come, you just have to wait a little bit

Well...I've had the experience of having feelings for someone, but it's not mutual.


The biggest thing that keeps me away is the fear of rejection. I'm one of those people that doesn't make a move because I'm stubborn. You'll eventually find who we are looking for, it's just gonna take some time.

<p>People are generally afraid of the thought of rejection; of becoming so vulnerable to someone only to not live up to that person's expectations. Other people are emotionally occupied in other ways, concerning themselves with education or work. It's not too uncommon to not desire a relationship with someone. </p>

Maybe you're not ready or mature enough to become that intimate with another. That's perfectly fine. You have all the time in the world. Not everyone is involved with someone else. Don't push yourself into something you will regret. </p>


<p>


That being said, I've found out that if people just keep living their lives, the right person will cross their path. Another thing: don't put expectations in place before you experience it. Saying you want a specific type of love before you even know what it is? That could hurt you. How do you know that is what you want?</p>
