I have fallen to quick when I was younger but after some failed long term relationships I tend to be more careful of the ones I am with....doesn't mean you can't be in love early but best to make sure that person is deserving of the attention and love you have to offer.....at least in my experiences.

I fall hard and fast. It has only proved to get me a broken heart in the end though.

I try to take things slower, sometimes I have to hold feelings back. I just want to make sure my feelings are for real and not an at the moment lust crazy feeling.

I generally fall hard...and fast

well, i dont usually fall for anyone... i am very guarded. but recently i have started to fall... though i have some pretty deep feelings, we will still be taking things slowly.

oh me too puffins - and holy cr@p when it is mutual -
omg

i have a tendency to fall hard sometimes, but i am realistic and i wont act on it until the time is right.

wow.... again I guess I have never thrown around the word love... I dont really think you can fall in love that fast.. fall in lust... really like someone yeah... I generally have found if you dont take your time ( moving in together before 3 months) you get into a routine and used to each other rather than a love for each other... in ht elong run the relationship ends up with alot of resentment toward one another... OK just my view and have a great day all

I agree with you Soldier!

I tend to fall in LIKE with people readily enough.. sometimes it continues to build slowly over time BUT there are other times it just fizzles quickly.. depends on the persons attitude..

over a period of weeks I started falling for a guy that I was NOT initially physically attracted to... but because there was the KIND of 'connection' I was looking FOR.. after aWHILE his LOOKS weren't even an issue

Zero, I so know that feeling. Falling in like is fun. Especially when you don't confuse it with love.

Falling in love? Every time that it was real was different. However, as said before, it is amazing when the falling in love is mutual and real and honest.

you're statement ""it is amazing when the falling in love is mutual and real and honest. "" is SOOO true Michele.. problem I'm finding is that no one is SERIOUS about 'getting OUT there and actually MEETING' specially with 'internet dating'....

it's just easier I guess to sit home and DREAM of something real happening.. not only over the phone or net.. but.. life IS turning more 'impersonal' so.. why shud DATING be different huh
it SUCKS but.. that's jmo!

i fall hard and fast.. but doing my best to take it slow and easy to avoid having my heart ripped to shreds again..

good girl wego

nope..not wanting to have to pick up broken heart pieces.. want EVERYone to be HAPPY !!

you've been picking up my broken pieces for awhile sis.. thank you for gluing my heart back together so many times

agree with Zero.....fall in like fast enough...then ....watch my back.........

lust and infatuation can be fast--

love --i take slowly..too dangerous

i truly wear my heart on my sleeve
but i believe some gitrls dont deserve my true love so i now take it slow and just see how tha relationship can really go
<3

I'm like TX. Fast on the lust and like SLOW on the love.Probably to slow for most.

I agree Zero... it's great to have that connection on the internet/phone, but why not see if it exists in person. That's why with the last guy I met I took the bull by the horns. It wasn't like we hadn't seen each other before though. I used to go into the pharmacy where he works all the time, but haven't been in there in about 10 years. Well I came across his profile on myspace at the end of October. We emailed each other a few times, then exchanged numbers. We talked for a few days. When I say talk, we talked for hours. Once for 10 hours straight. Finally, one day I texted him if he was busy at work and he said no, so I just showed up. Not like me at all, but sometimes you just go for it. So far, things have been great. It's been weird this weekend, because he's been hunting with a friend. Luckily, he'll be back in a few more hours.

My advice... you only live once. Be cautious but not overly cautious. Trust your own heart and things will work out!
