Love

[ciaraciara]

Myself and my mate are writing a book in an attempt to find out what we really want in life.... As part of it we're looking at love and whether it could be the solution to our problems.... Just looking for people to give us an account of their situations please...
Have you been in love??
Are you in love??
How does it feel??
How do you know when you've found love??
Have you had your heart broken/ broken someone's heart??
How does this feel??
Do you believe love lasts forever or can withstand all obstacles??
Do you think that everyone can find "the one?"

Describe what love means to you.. :)

Thank you :)

Yes
Not anymore
Warm fuzzy and comfortable
You feel a bond
My heart was broken
Like it was ripped out and stamped on,like fighting to breathe.
Love can last forever but never take it for granted
I think there is someone for everyone out there
Trust,warmth,companionship,happiness.

No problem :-)

Have you been in love? Yes
Are you in love? Yes but she does not know.
How does it feel? Good when I see her. Must make a move.
How do you know when you've found love? It's the way you look at each other. You also think about each other when apart.
Have you had your heart broken/ broken someone's heart? Yes. Not sure about the other way round though.
How does this feel? Got over my heartbreak quickly in most cases. Very few occasions though it has taken years.
Do you believe love lasts forever or can withstand all obstacles? Yes
Do you think that everyone can find "the one?" Yes

Describe what love means to you. I have to feel it in some way every day whether it's close family, friends, someone I meet briefly.

What a load of twonk! I'm sorry but no, love is not the solution to all problems... If you have problems then you sort them and/or yourself out until you are in a place where actually you can have a relationship on an equal level to another human being, love is not a quick fix to what irks you! It takes time, patience and work to be in and stay in love with someone but if they're worth it you do it and it takes no effort.

And your questions are silly, naive and entirely subjective, can love withstand all obsticals? Of course not! Some things happen that are just entirely too difficult for two people to deal with and sometimes life just changes. As I said, love doesn't fix a problem and in fact can sometimes make things more complicated.

Being in love will feel different to different people, some will get giddy, some will feel secure and warm and others will feel anxious... It depends on the person.

And as to 'the one'... I don't even know where to begin with that... I a world with literally billions of people, I find it hard to believe that people still believe in the concept that there is 'one' out there for you.... You're basically damn screwed if you're in England and your 'one' is waiting for you in the blooming arctic! I'd say it's as many as 1 in 5 people you could meet that if you're both in the right place, with the right mind set and enough attraction, you'd be able to form a meaningful, loving and caring relationship with.

Sorry to sound so negative but I was really struck by the twaddle.... Although it's safe to say, I'm not a natural romantic! ;0)

Well to be honest China Doll, I do not entirely think that these questions are silly.. It is research for a book... These questions are posed to ask the wider audience what do they feel about the whole situation about being in love...It is your opinion on them that we want... Thank you for your answer.. It was very honest! :D
