I love You used to be these three magical words..but lately I
find that it has been cheapened by people who used it even when
they don't mean it or when they are not even sure of what they are
feeling. I have always restrained my usage of the word "love"
whenever I feel strongly about someone because I don't want to use
it until I am really sure it is love.
Being attracted to someone after a few days of seeing that person
is not love, no matter what you want to believe in. I read
somewhere that love is friendship caught on fire and for me, love
cannot be without friendship as its strong foundation. I know some
of you out there might disagree with me on this one, esp those who
advocate love at the first sight, that you can meet your soulmate
just as you look at him/her for the first time. That would be
atrraction, lust, whatever you want to call it, but for me, it is
definitely not love.
Before I can truly say I love someone, I should not only be able to
list all the good things about him, I must also be able to list out
all the flaws and be convinced that i can accept them.
I do not use the word "love" often. But when I say it, you will
know I really mean it. I haven't said it to anyone yet so far
actually, I did tell my ex crush I like him but I never used the
word "love". I guess it will be reserved for someone
special...
