Love Actually?

Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
Robert Frost (1874 - 1963)

I wouldnt call what i have experienced so far as LOVE, well, maybe once... but thats a story for another time.

What is it about the opposite sex that renders one un-intelligent, naive, and so caught up in the illusion of lust and love that we often forget NOT to have any expectations cause generally our expectations will never be met. It is like going into a movie thinking and hoping it will be great only to leave the cinema feeling like you just wasted a good portion of your day of life dedicating it to utter rubbish.

hahaha

now please understand that i am not talking about LOVE per se, but the illusion of it; some of us may think.... or usually in my case, I think too much and often get caught up as i mentioned above in the illusion or expectataion that i am loved when the sad, awful truth sometimes is that i am not.

I believe love is primarily a choice and only sometimes a feeling. If you want to feel love, choose to love and be patient.

That is the problem, when it comes to matters of the heart one can either fuck it up or NOT fuck it up, occasioanally we get the middle ground where sometimes it just works. Patirence plays an important factor i think, or does it? I mean, one can pursue it quickly and make it work.... or u can either ruin it. the same thing when we wait, if we wait too long..sometimes it works.. sometimes that love just fades away....

I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end.
Margaret Thatcher (1925 - ), in Observer April 4, 1989

But then how do we know when its the right time?

I guess we just do.....

"Kuch Kuch Hota Hai" loosely translated means "that feeling in the heart" and this pretty much explains the above question, i guess no matter what, if u think u have that feeling, we shouldnt dilly dally but just go for it, as they say "what is it do we have to lose?"

Absoultely Nothing.
