Hurts So Good
There is nothing like the emotions you go through when you are falling for someone. I liken it to what I think falling out of an airplane would feel, but I haven’t skydived yet so I am speculating. You are taking a calculated risk. You have your parachute and your tandem partner that you trust completely.
You take the leap and you have an initial feeling of utter bliss and joy. The moment you fall out feels surreal and unbelievable. Then perhaps you look at exactly how high you are and maybe start to panic a bit. You hope that your rip cord works and that you and your partner won’t fall too badly because you know it will hurt if your parachute doesn’t open.
I know this makes falling in love sound terrifying and exhilarating all at once. That’s kind of the point, really. It can be the best feeling in the world when it’s good. When it’s bad? Ouch. It doesn’t matter how scary it is, most of us won’t stop chasing that feeling of being in love.
Have you ever been in love? How would you describe the emotions? How did you know that it was love and not lust? What about that infatuation phase? Is it a dangerous thing to mistake infatuation for love or is that a natural part of it?
What do men think when they feel that first surge of strong emotions about a woman? What if they aren’t prepared for it and it catches them by surprise?
Recently, singer Alicia Keys asked an interesting love question on Twitter: “In love is it better to go for the choice that is smart or the choice that has spark?”
I am not sure if the smart choice would be without spark, wouldn’t that make it the settling choice? What are your thoughts?

Love is when you refrain from reaching thru the phone and chopping him in his throat when he calls to say he forgot to pickup the clothes from the cleaners and needs me to do it instead.

Prof – I personally like a little screaming and yelling.. I dont bother me.. I like it when She gettin it and gettin it good and she acknowledges that.. It kills me when women will bite a hole in their lip and run all over the bed rather than let it out.. Babe look I can feel when I touch the bottom..

Dreamin I was smiling until I saw that HIM…I guess between using my bathroom and mopping the floors I am doomed to enjoy tender-freaky-squeaky–pow-wow moments of slow brewing speaking in tongues clap-out moments of bliss.

One of Hank Stewart’s FB status messages today said, “When you love someone you would give up everything for them, but if they love you back, they would never ask you to.”
