Some confuse love with lust or infatuation. They're not the same.

Being in love is following a girl everywhere she goes, from a distance; and obsessing over her with too much fear to actually talk to her.

Makes me think of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. I'm sorry you lost your wife and lost a love like that; I think we are lucky to have a love like that once in our lives, if at all. Glad you did.

And it also reminds me of my brother and his wife. I learned a lot from my brother who was 8 years older than me. He was so totally in love with his girlfriend/later wife. Even after they had been married several years and had three kids, she sat next to him in the car (before seatbelt laws), and they always held hands. I remember my other brother saying something bad about the the girlfriend when my brother was in high school and he had nothing to do with him after that. He did not allow anyone saying anything about his girlfriend/wife. He died when he was in his 30s of cancer, but I have no doubt if he were alive today in his 60s they would still be holding hands. She felt the same way about him. I have never seen another love like that and I'm glad I got to watch it from a kid sister's perspective. He truly loved and respected her. He wasn't after her for sex; he loved her. Wish the world were more like that today, more pure.

A lot of 60s songs make me think of my brother because they were songs he liked and also because I think he considered those songs to be an expression of feelings for his girlfriend/wife - Hang On Sloopy, Groovy Kind of Love, What a Day for a Daydream, And I Love Her, Happy Together, Do Wah Diddy, My Girl, Windy, Spooky, All I Have To Do is Dream, Michelle Ma Belle, Do You Want To Know a Secret

How it feels to be in love kind of depends on how the other person feels about you.

Comfortable, no surprises, can talk/do anything without feeling self conscience, just feels right.


It just flows..I can't explain it otherwise

This one is good as well. It's "safe" and you can completely trust the other person. Again very rare I think. You know when you have it and you know when you don't. Most probably don't.
