I've dated a handful of people, only told one of them I loved them (my first girlfriend, but lol that was teenage hormones saying ~i love you~).

I dunno what love feels like, or what the definition is. I assume its some sort of feeling that makes you want to stay with the person even after the honeymoon phase is over and despite you knowing what their farts smell like. Or maybe its a form of acceptance for who they are, warts and imperfections included, and not the ideal version of them you've made in your head.

Yeah OP you got me beat, I reckon I haven't? Anyone who's dated me quickly learns about the Russia.jpg threads, goatse, keyboard goop, and the mentally ill cooking man masaokis.

Lots

Super serious love
3 maybe 4
3 guys asked me to marry them, all 3 were wrong, tho the last one was one of the major loves. He ended up destroying me anyway. :shrug:

The man I loved most of all didn't love me the same way. Its a hard lesson to learn at 24- that someone can be the right person for you, while simultaneously you are not the right person for them.

if the relationships.txt thread has taught me anything is that everyone has a vastly different idea of what love and is willing to tolerate abhorrent abuse chasing after a fleeting image of it that only exists in their heads.

and sometimes you find someone who isn't a monster, but this is rare.

You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

It's incredible and I was really depressed and suicidal before my son was born and now I just can't imagine reaching that level of sadness again , not to mention now I have people who rely on me being alive to also live and they love me too I think so it's really great. I love my daughter a ton too but all she does is crawl around and poo poo her pants so far

I don't have or want children but almost everyone I've ever met had a terrible (biological) father who was incapable of love, so it's good to see dads who give a poo poo about their kids.

This is honestly a very fair conclusion to reach. I don't think most people are happy or healthy alone but that doesn't mean it's universal - I've known some people who are much happier now that they're by themselves.

I don't believe in love at first sight per se, but I met my wife when I was 19, and we have been together ever since (we are 36 now, having our 10th wedding anniversary this summer). Something just clicked.

Sure we have had ups and downs like any normal relationship but we have never given up. After all this time we are still in love. We still prioritize dating, hold hands and tell each other "I love you" daily. We still bang line rabbits.

I was afraid to have kids because I thought it would drive us apart, which is what I thought happened to all parents. We now have an amazing daughter and a son due this summer. Having kids has made our bond stronger some how. I'm absurdly lucky.

I hope this post gives hope to other akward goons out there that things can work out.
