well what is it?

It isn't a space, it's an evil hag who kidnaps you and drags you, kicking and screaming, over to the other side.

brownsugar said:

Who is your evil hag then?

retina said:

somebody who has been successful so far at hiding the usual abnormalities that would give me an excuse to leave his ass alone.

well i'd rather stay in that space. its nice inbetween. decision free.

brownsugar said:

is it like that gap between one's shirt and one's pants????

XxAxX said:

if only it was that simple my friend.

brownsugar said:

Like objecting against your farting?

brownsugar said:

Just stay awake!

She hits you over the head when you're sleeping...

retina said:

brownsugar said:

I think it's really cool that you don't care when I do that in your face...

It's the same as the space between "Hello" and " I do."

jbchavez said:

see but what is THAT space?

brownsugar said:

Insanity

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

o crap then no wonder its comfy

brownsugar said:

It's a crossroads, and also a kind of limbo. Comfortable because you haven't invested any intense emotion but also frustrating becasue you want to but cannot decide whether to.

perhaps.

brownsugar said:

you know, wearing a belt can fix that right up!

LleeLlee said:

okay that makes sense. thats how i feel

XxAxX said:

these work just as well

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

or i love when your ass sounds like a deck of cards

brownsugar said:

I've been in that space, we all have, and sometimes you take that risk of loving somebody and no matter what happens it was worth it.

I hope it all works out for you brownsugar.

suspenders! such a turn on. and the hidden advantage of suspenders is that IF that space between like and love goes abruptly sour, the suspenders themselves can be used as a slingshot to hurl projectiles of not-like and not-love at the other party

LleeLlee said:

i'm still in limbo. i hope it works out to.

Technically, it's called the "emotional taint".

It's at the moments the pronouns change.

I becomes We and Mine becomes our.

Life is thought of in terms of another. At this moment, your are able to think less of yourself and more about another. Your dreams are no longer centered around what it is that you want. At this moment you realize that life with this person becomes more exciting and fulfilling. You do not want to go back to a time when this person was not in your life. At this moment, you are willing to write a fairy tale.

For me personally, I've never been in a place where I couldn't define it emotionally. "Like" is enjoying that person's presence without having any desire to turn it into something emotionally, romantically and sexually intimate. "Love" is an undeniable connection on an emotional, spiritual and sexual level, and there's no other desire than to make it reality between you both.

All the stuff in between is infactuation, lust, attraction...sugar-fueled versions of "Like", and watered-down versions of "Love".
