i understand where you're coming from with the "incomplete" thing.

it's probably something we all experience, but perceive it differently.
it's a hard sensation to quantify, or explain.

if you don't feel it, then maybe you've never truly been in love ?

I said that when a person is in love, they feel incomplete when the other is away. Not because the other person is perfect, but because they are loved that much, that you want to spend every moment with them.

I agree. Once you've been in love, lost that love, and fall in love again, you know.

You just....know. Your body reacts for you when your mind tries to do something else.

You know that feeling you get when you are leaning back in your chair and you catch yourself just before you fall...it feels like that. There are times I feel like that all day long and I'm not even in love.

Love bites.

To talk about such nonsense is trivial, and same with relationships, totally trivial. Only a girl would think otherwise. I've never sat around with my guy friends talking about that. It would be pretty lame.
Millions of people have children every day....incredibly common, right? But the parent feels each hurt and joy more than the child does. A parent frequently talks too proudly and too often. A parent WOULD step in front of a bullet for his child.
That's love.
You won't ever meet a person you can love like this...until you are mature enough to see what you can give to a relationship, and not what you can get.

Coolhand68 there are times when I feel like this as well. Some of my days feel extremely colored even though it's just another day (as in it's no different environment, still alone, things are still not going right). Yet even some of these days just feel so beautiful and colored. I have no idea why. It's as if God or somebody just picked a few of my days of my life and said "Hey, you are going to feel unbounded joy on these particular days no matter how miserable you normally are." I have no idea why this happens to me at such arbitrary, unexplicable times.

Is this what you were referring to?

Heh, this is funny. I was thinking about love today.

As humans, I believe we have an innate desire in us to be loved. Call it the human condition, if you wish. We crave companionship and friendships. Some things we cannot get from ourselves. The first example that comes to mind is a hug. A simple hug from the right person does amazing things. It comforts. It reassures. It uplifts. It encourages. It congratulates. It consoles. We're humans and we are not meant to be alone.

That said, I think pure and true love is something to be treasured. It is the ultimate human gift. Can you imagine a world and society without love?

Should I be laughing at this? Probably not. Am I? Definitely.
