Love is the best feeling in the world! I love feeling love! The great thing about love, is it is the great motivator, and it makes anything possible. We become who we are truly meant to be through our love, and his love that inspires us to be courageous. It is easy to do the simple thing, to never challenge yourself, to be content with yourself. Is something entirely new to open yourself up to being vulnerable, in realizing that you have room to be better, to realize that there is more to you that is only for someone else to discover. It is worthwhile to fall in love, and to be in love. It hurts, and it makes you scared. It can feel difficult to communicate. But the reality is, you are better for loving.

Love always, and love deeply. Love in a way that makes you stupid. Love in a way that makes you do things that are outrageous and scandalous to others. Your feelings are important, and feeling them is truly incredible. Emotion is the real ride, everything else is just dressing. Choosing to feel, and feel strongly, even if it hurts, the pain is absolutely sublime compared to the feeling of feeling nothing.

LOVE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO LOVE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD LOVE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE LOVE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. LOVE. LOVE.

what's the difference, really

Depression isn't feeling sad, it is feeling nothing and wanting to feel nothing. I can be happy, because I allow myself to be happy, to be sad, hurt myself, to let other people hurt me, to do good for others, to let others do good for me.

Nah it would be because I felt the metaphor was too sad. He's mean though, and there was never a good reason to love him.

Being verbally assaulted, being seen and treated as lesser, not a man, a child. Just look at food court bailiffs replies to me. I sicken him and people like him. Even though it was in relation to not asking women out rather than doing it in a wrong way it still is, at its core, enforcement of male social norms.

I also fear being ostracized.

Being ostracized is actually kind of nice though, like do it on your own terms and then you get to be "wild" and then people's expectations fail to map to you and you become sort of invincible. It's weird but it does work.

i read one self help book that stated, even if you are largely attracted to a type, you have to concede qualities that are beneficial in the long run. in the case of the self help book, it was saying even if you want to gently caress bad boys, even if you love bad boys, you know you cant be with them. because you get in this lovely cycle of destruction, and you know it. (an example)


not enough people give credit to "not head over heels". some people actually argue that if they're not crazy about a person, then its not love. but i think love is less in your face. love is that willingness to be vulnerable and to accept another persons vulnerable ness. but idk. honestly all male relationships i have i have let burn and i never know if im spraying a douchebag pheromone, or if im attracted to people who i know will never get too close to me.

id like to discuss attraction vs love, is what im saying. or the places between.

yeah but at least you know a bad boy will let you down, it sucks when a good boy lets you down.

If I don't change I'm fine, it's not like I haven't been proposed to before. It doesn't even necessitate dating, actually! Though you whinge when you try to ask a girl out, try asking her to marry you without even jumping through the "casual dating" hoop first, yowza!
