What's Your Take On Love?... Which one of these quotes best matches how you view love and being in love?
"Maybe I could have loved you better. Maybe you should have loved me more. Maybe our hearts were just next in line. Maybe everything breaks sometime." "When you smiled you had my undivided attention. When you laughed you had my urge to laugh with you. When you cried you had my urge to hold you. When you said you loved me, you had my heart forever. For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." "Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They did something dumb one day, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love." "Deep in my heart, I'm concealing things that I'm longing to say. Scared to confess how I'm feeling. Frightened you'll slip away." "I try to talk to you, but I don't know what to say. I am afraid you don't want me to say anything. So I don't. But inside of me there are words waiting to come out and tell you how I feel - like how I miss you. And how I love you despite my broken heart. And how I need you in my life. And especially how much I want you. But those words may forver stay in my heart, locked inside. Sometimes I wonder if there are words locked inside you too... but I'll never know." | |

I want you to know one thing
You know how this is If I look at the crystal moon At the red branch of the slow autumn at my window If I touch near the fire the impalpable ash Or the wrinkled body of the log Everything carries me to you As if everything that exists - aromas, light, metals Were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me Well, now If little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you Little by little If suddenly you forget me Do not look for me For I shall already have forgotten you If you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes through my life And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots Remember That on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms And my roots will set off to seek another land But, if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for me With implacable sweetness If each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me Ahh my love, ahh my own, in me all that fire is repeated In me nothing is extinguished or forgotten My love feeds on your love, beloved And as long as you live, it will be in your arms without leaving mine | |

I usually feel the 4th, for someone who is not my current boyfriend.
But I easily change my mind, even if I don't change my luv for HIM. Because it looks more like a dream than reality, I tell myself true love can wait and that I'll meet him once. And If not, I'm sure we are going to be together one day, because our souls belong one to each other. Being alone in the meantime is stupid. I try to do my best to show love anyway. I love my boyfriend, but I feel "connected" to someone else, who is often in my dreams. There's nothing I can do about it. I am only 31 now, and I want to raise a new family. I am not sure to ever meet him and I want to enjoy eveytime in my life, as soon as the feeling I got is just unbelievable. | |

Just beautiful!!!!! I agree and that's the way I feel with my man. He's got my heart. | |

The second one, and since I'm listening to Foreigner....
I gotta take a little time A little time to think things over I better read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older Now this mountain I must climb Feels like a world upon my shoulders I through the clouds I see love shine It keeps me warm as life grows colder In my life there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me I'm gonna take a little time A little time to look around me I've got nowhere left to hide It looks like love has finally found me In my life there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again I can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me I wanna know what love is I want you to show me And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is And I know, I know you can show me Let's talk about love I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside I want you to show me, and I'm feeling so much love I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide I know you can show me, yeah I wanna know what love is, let's talk about love I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too And I know and I know, I know you can show me Show me love is real, yeah I wanna know what love is... | |

Right now:
"When you smiled you had my undivided attention. When you laughed you had my urge to laugh with you. When you cried you had my urge to hold you. When you said you loved me, you had my heart forever. For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." A couple years ago: "Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They did something dumb one day, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love." | |

Mostly that one, but sometimes... "Deep in my heart, I'm concealing things that I'm longing to say. Scared to confess how I'm feeling. Frightened you'll slip away."
...I feel like that one, and that I really need to express how I feel and love about my hubby-type. I have no problem saying "I love you" and meaning it, but expressing exactly why I love is difficult. Even discussing a beautiful song that makes me think of my loving relationship with my boyfriend is somehow difficult. | |
