[Discussion] In love with love?


Recommended Posts

Can you just be in love with love?

A week into the relationship do you see yourself marrying her/him? Are you just in love with the idea of marriage or that company?

 

I asked a bunch of people what they thought what it means to be in love with love.

 

Euphoria. Lovesick. Stupidity. Obsession of Bliss. Optimism. Pathetic. Being Romantic. Confusion.

 

Can you just be in love with love?

I think so. I wouldn't say that I picture marrying someone after two weeks but I definitely dream of that one perfect love. I know I am naive for thinking that because rationally it probably doesn't exist. However, I guess the hopeless romantic part of me keeps a little hope alive.

Yes, very possible and there's more people who are in love with the idea/s of love more than the person they're "in love with"/"loving".

 

Unfortunately, IMO that leads to people lowering their standards and self-respect in order to maintain or find that love they're in love with

Some people get addicted to the highs they experience when in a relationship, so in a way it can become like a drug. And those same people are the ones misssmith talked about, they don't care where they get the "drug" as long as they get it. I don't think that's fair to the other person in the relationship, though.

From this article:

 

 

 

 

Were you/Are you pre-occupied with the notions of love as expressed in music, movies and fiction?

Have you used the words "soul mate" in reference to how love should be?

Are you able to take the time necessary to heal and do a thorough post mortem on a failed relationship before running out to find a new "friend" which quickly becomes a rebound lover?
