i'm really not sure.
i hear that when you're in love, you just know it. but i wonder--is love something that you feel with such passion that it consumes your entire soul, or is it something that creeps up on you?
in the relationships i've found most impassioned, i've later come to realize that it was the level of insanity (there's no other word) that held us together, and that looking back on those strange, irrational relationships, i'm really glad i got out of them, even though i was sad when they ended.
is the love we see in movies and read about in books really just an illusion? maybe part of growing up is realizing that love is in fact a conscious effort by two people to stick it out through thick and thin, with the knowledge that each is very far from perfect. maybe love isn't always passionate, because people aren't always passionate.
he treats me the way i've always dreamt of being treated, and really, what more can i ask from a guy?
i guess the question i keep asking myself is: am i staying because i'm scared of searching, or am i stupid for wishing the impossible?
