I doubt it. If I did that, I would just be sweeping it under the rug. But who knows, maybe the new love crushed the old one. Or maybe you just have a really big rug. smile


lol or maybe I didn't really have very strong feelings for him in the first place? It all happened in a very short time.

so when you sweep it under the rug, do you mean that later on, when you are lonely, you think about that person and feel regret and longing?


Yeah. Usually I just keep walking on the rug until one day - WOOOSH! - I step on the wrong spot and it all comes flying out from underneath. So I usually try to keep the floor under the rug clean instead.

yeah. i've been infatuated with people before, but i knew that the situation would be really uneven if i took the risk of letting myself indulge in those feelings any more than just enjoying a crush on someone i find dreamy. other times, when i've felt signals coming back at me, i run 'em over like a mack truck. biggrin

I think some people can do it. They sort of stop themselves in the middle of the process and rein in their feelings somehow. I've never figured out how to do it though.

it really helps if you DON'T tell the other person how you feel about them. Like I know this guy told me when he looked at me he got butterflies and I was thinking "oh SHIT!!!!!" cause I felt the same, but he really wasn't right for me, so I told him I didn't feel the same way, which was a complete lie, but I think it helped.


Booooo!!!!! Liar. no no no!

Did you ever manage it? How?

First of all, your story brought back memories of an Australian I met in Glasgow many years ago (if the girl who sang Crowded House songs with me on the way back to the youth hostel's out there, holla!). But anyhoo...

I do it all the time. How? I don't believe in the concept. shrug

It's not my fault. There is not much to choose from here. Toronto's quality of women is pretty bleak.

the concept of fallinluv ?
maybe you never fell in love yet? To really do it you need to be pretty open to it and want it. If you don't want it, maybe you never let it happen?

I thought I was "in love" lots of times when I was younger.

I don't believe in "romantic love" now that I'm older. It's a good campaign, though. Moves a lot of product. nod Lets people impose meaning on our meaningless existence...opiates the masses... The dudes who invented that and religion should get lifetime achievement Clios. razz

OK, I mean he has never let it happen because on some level he doesn't want it to. Which is kind of the answer to this whole question - HOW DO YOU DO THAT!

You just said that someone who could go without loving someone for that long was a sociopath.

i ssssorta agree with you (not that it matters, i know) - i believe in the practicalities of finding a lifetime partner, and if that person happens to be someone you have an affinity for and with whom you can engage in some interests and hopefully on some occasions have sex with, then you can call it 'love' or 'aunt mabel' for all i care. it's a good thing to have. but i know what you mean. fuck zales.

If you are in love, you know it. You don't look back on it and THINK you might have been in love.

don't you think you are a bit cynical though in the business you're in? - you are selling the product all right lol

so "romantic love" is when you really like each other and want to be together forever? as opposed to I love my mother?

I'm so confused!!!
