Love

Is that a reincarnation belief? I don't believe in reincarnation but I guess you could have always loved someone though.
 
There can be an attraction at first sight (doesn't have to be physical or dirty or anything, just...an attraction, an interest). But love would have to grow over time I think.
This is it. You can't just love someone from the get go. Any "love" you feel when you see someone is nothing more than an infatuation. Love needs more time than a moment or two.
 
I think you can love someone from the get go. It only took us 2 days before we decided to move out of state to see each other and he lives about 120 miles away. I'm going to his apartment on Monday. Which is only like 4 days after we met. I believe that's love.
 
I've never seen that happen in my life. Popular girls don't date unpopular boys...
Why?
Because it's not love at first sight, they don't have the body.

Watch those popular girls, when high school ends their popularity goes out the window...welcome to the real world/college now girls...nobody cares if you were the drama queen in high school...

Personally i think that love is not a feeling...its an ability that two people from the opposite gender possess. Its really hard to find a person that you know you can really trust on, not to mention that we live in a crazy generation nowadays heh, and its funny how the term 'I love you' is used today also because to me that word is overrated.
My girlfriend understands that but just maybe someday I'll tell her that word but in a different way because of how overrated it is.

I agree with chibi but i feel bad for those guys who have trouble asking girls out.
 
Are you saying that as a homophobic saying or that men and women can have love?
 
I believe that someone can be attracted to someone at first sight, but I don't think someone can fall in love with said person without getting to know them after a while.
 
I don't know. I just know that I'm going to see him. I'm going to travel 240 miles round trip, which is 120 miles to his apartment and an other 120 miles back home. I believe that to be love especially with the gas prices. I don't care what you or anyone else says I'm making the trip. I'll only be there for 5 hours at the most, and yes I'll have fun;). You can call it lust, attraction or what ever but I'm going to see him. Like I said I only met him 2 days ago and on day 4 I'm making the trip.
 
There is a saying "only fools rush in" y'know. I'm not trying to be rude, but like, four days? You honestly think you love someone after four days? You can't truely love someone until you've created a relationship that's deeper than just physical attraction, because as most people said here, it's infatuation. I don't think you can know much about anyone after four days, that makes them an aquaintance at most >:

Well that being said, I obviously don't believe in love at first sight. Love is something that has to build over time and after getting to know someone and liking them for more than just their looks.
 
Why am I making that trip then? Just for action? No, and yes I think I can.
 
Get to know the person a little better. I mean i dont want you to take this the wrong way but you never know how he is when you meet the person for the first time in real life. Sure the person may talk sweet and say nice things, but you dont know the background that person has.

Everyone has their thoughts and I don't have the power to stop anybody from making their choice, sometimes its better to find out for yourself.
Best of luck on that trip.
 
Unfortunately your right about that but you have to take risks before you can get rewards. I feel he's really the right one for me and I'm willing to take the risk for a shot on true love. Thanks for your concern and I hope for the best too.
 
I think it's amazing that you feel so strongly about this, and you're willing to act on your emotions in such a way. However, I do think you should be careful. Love is a dangerous word, as corny as that sounds. Don't set yourself up for something you can't control. What if he's not everything you dreamed he'd be? All your hopes and wishes will come crashing down, and there's nothing you can do about it. It's better to discover the unexpected than expect the undiscovered.

But it's good that you're actually taking the time and effort to see him. As long as you try to do everything in your power to make it work, you shouldn't have any regrets if it doesn't. Good luck!
 
I really do get what you mean and something in the pass has happen but I think I'm a lot smarter now, I just find it unfortunate that we aren't tought this at school. I hope it doesn't come crashing down too but I feel I'm open to change. I know your right and I hope for the best.
 
Real love is built through spending time together and working through struggles. It lasts through the good and the bad.

If this guy suddenly developed a debilitating disease, would you stay by his side until the end or would you start pursuing other options? I don't mean to be blunt, but it's a good gauge. You may be attracted now, but I don't think I would call it "love" by any means.
 
I really didn't want to say this but he is taking median for his heart.

I assume you mean medicine? I wouldn't really correlate needing medicine with having a debilitating disease, as there are plenty of people with prescriptions that can function more or less normally. I don't know the extremity of his condition, granted, but if it isn't crippling or, God-forbid, deadly, then that's not really what I meant.
 
True, so very true but I take the good with the bad. You can always trust me to come through no matter what. I'm not saying you're gay but if you were then a boy like me would be prefect, sure I'm not the sharpest knive in the droll but I'm loyal to those I'm close to and I got what I they want too if you know what I mean but that's what I got to say.
 
Is that a reincarnation belief? I don't believe in reincarnation but I guess you could have always loved someone though.

I never really made the connection between that an reincarnation, but I do believe in reincarnation as well. XD; I don't know, it's just my belief. I think if you have lived long enough to know the difference between love and lust and what comes in between, then you know if you have fallen in love at first sight.
 
To be blunt, love at first sight only lives in fairy tales and re-runs of Family Matters.

You gotta let the love blossom, ove a month, year, a decade or even life. No matter what it takes.

Now why did I think of "L-O-V-E" by Ashley Simpson just now?

I don't know. Love is a strange thing at times so you don't really know.

I think if you have lived long enough to know the difference between love and lust and what comes in between, then you know if you have fallen in love at first sight.

You were talking about love at first sight and that once you love someone, you have always loved them which makes it sound that if you love someone 100 years ago and you always love them and when your born again you still love the person even if you don't know it. I don't see how someone couldn't make that connection, sure you never said that you believe in reincarnation but it was pretty obvious.
