and nothing could be sweeter than having both and being both

Well its impossible to tell the difference between been "in Love" or lust unless you
are practiced in the art of self abuse in conjunction with timing.
Timing
+Activity
= love or lust

Example:

Girl and guy are switch on talking on the phone and she says; "I want you to come over right now" she is driving me wild..erm wilder and I think I Love her.

Instead of rushing over and engaging in intercourse, a self abuse session must take place first.
(This will avoid very awkward and hurtful situations)
If I just discovered I don't love her I will wait until she calls back despite telling her I would be on my way.If infact my self exam proves positive (I still want her even know nobody is better than me..weird = in love) then I just call her and tell her I'm not going to make it tonight....hey I'm not 18...lol In just pulling 'your' legs...or somthing j/k ...(Positive means) I drive a little slower and will be a little frigid for the first 20 min.

Two things hold true in my life ; This method NEVER FAILS and I've never failed to please myself.

Sorry I can't answer the question. I have never been in love. I relies I made a mistake and chose to love because of the commitment I had made to him.
When I am if I do I will let you know.

I have no idea.......I thought I knew, but apparently it wasn't love.......

^^^This...

Fine, but that doesn't explain the feeling. Please elaborate.

When I'm in love the sun shines brighter, food tastes better, my mind is sharper, I sleep sounder, flowers smell better, people seem kinder, the snow is whiter, rain is soothing, music sounds better and multiples are a given....To love! ... *clink*

Love with the ex felt dead and I was more upset when the cat and dog died than I did when I left. I didn't cry I was relieved. When the divorced papers came I kissed the deliver and opened the wine. That was a great night.
Lust not game enough to go there. Want something more real.

And I feel happy.

When u r in love u keep on checking ur mobile for any texts or calls. U smile when u think about your love. The eagerness to meet them or to hear their voice increases day by day!!!

Soo true
Like v r in different world completely!!!

My last post was as an addition to Leigh's description.

that is soooo true,

That's sounds like something out of a romance book. Mills and Boons but I am a life long learner. Lol or I will laugh so hard.

When you watch her sleeping for a second or two, and she still looks beautiful.

Is it my fault if i m hot :) :p

The sex gets kinkier and kinkier.

Mothers tend to know their kids better than the kids want to admit.


Doesn't really matter what you call it if in practical terms they lead to the same outcome.


Great! You've just diagnosed yourself.
You KNOW the problem.
There's a ton of people that can help you figure out if it's something that can be overcome or not.


It's a process:
1. I listen to my mother.
2. I especially listen to the person with whom I'm part of a relationship.
3. I listen to others that know me or are close to me.
4. I don't look for shortcuts that are independent from everyone and based solely on my biased interpretation of my biased emotions inside my own head.
5. I pay attention to what all those things are telling me and more.

How do you know something invisible exists? Pay attention to your emotions about the thought that it might exist? Or look for how it effects things?
If you're in love, you behave differently, mostly without realizing it.
But if you change behavior, and it becomes consistent, you can be sure that other people notice.

When I'm in love I pledge my existence to her. I fear to draw a breath lest I should upset the delicate balance of the universe and cause me to lose her love. I love so, that my heart aches and my soul is then enveloped by pain. The pain within my heart is the very pleasure that gives me strength to brave any danger to self to be with her. A slight by anyone visited upon her is enough to drive me mad with rage, as the madness which is driven by my passion of desire for her. As I would give her my life if she would have it, I would as well take mine own life and thereby show that I could love no more intensely.
And if I've fallen in love I would love her even more.
