being...



If I am unable to "fall" in love with you, I fear I am doomed to never find true love.

Have you ever felt like this?

Honestly? No - I haven't. I'm kind of glad, too.
Absolutely yes. I was 44 before I trusted enough to get married.

what's "true love"?!

this has never been my problem. my problem is unrequited love, or worse: loving, trusting, opening up, being vulnerable and then watching it fall apart.

the irony of this for me is that i am loved and know it. my fear is that a certain person, a certain feeling, is gone and all the good parts of that may never be filled inside me again. that makes me so damn sad.

stacey girl, you ask deep questions. i'm surprised i answer them.

Only in my teens. I fell in love too easily.

Hugs!!

Yes, and it was a feeling of tense desperation.

Yes, just like green-eyed monster only in my teens. I got married at 20 after falling in love after setting eyes on my husband for the first time when I was 17

I think we all feel like this sometimes. "I'm not worthy of love. How can he love me." :(

I think I fell often more like; "If I am unable to "fall" OUT OF LOVE with you, I fear I am doomed to never find true love."

Yes, I have. But don't feel desperate. I've learned that what causes us such intense feelings of negativity and desperation and downness is usually not what's best for us. Though we may not see it, there is always something better right around the corner.

I think there are many emotions we lump together as "love." It seems like you are talking about different mixes of them.

Only when I was young, now, I know better.

Stacey it sounds like you feel under the clock. Like if I don't jump now, I never will.

It is easy to feel like that.

Love Renee xoxox
Stacey, this is a great statement. Wow. Falling in love IS such a fearful thing when one has been incredibly hurt. (Like myself and you). But as I mentioned to someone earlier today....to love is to take a chance. When I love...I love fully and unconditionally. I do not ever want to regret NOT jumping in and falling in love if I feel I have found that perfect someone.

Many hugs!
Very true Stacey. When one can't fall in love, the person is doomed.

There is true love everywhere, and not solely in the shape of a partner. Fortunately, I have never felt that way :-)
