It's a feeling for me too, one that happens and that I know will be static no matter what I do. Relationships are all about reciprocity for me, but love is just love. It drops on me like a ton of bricks. I don't think I experience normal stages of infatuation and love like other people. I just go from not knowing someone to recognizing their soul from somewhere else. It's the kind of love that lasts even if they do something terrible and/or we have to distance ourselves.

Sometimes I'm surprised by the strength of it.

There was one time when I thought I was in love but wasn't. I just had a giant crush. I was 16. I fell in love for the first time the next year and knew the difference from then on.

What was the difference?

It's hard to describe. It's a different feeling than a crush. It's only happened 4 times in 40 years, so it's pretty memorable when it does.

There's love and there's true love 🙂

i think when i cannot take them out of my mind, and i want to text all the times (im reluctant to texting generally speaking or even talking that much) - i want them to be around me, i get attached to their smell, im comfortable being vulnerable with them, i wanna make them the happiest and would do anything for them. Also when I wanna share things with them, thoughts, have deep conversation with them

When you started to sacrifice.

Really, its that simple. See, I do many things to the people I'm in love with. I sacrificed my ego, my tears (cried for girls), my time, everything.

I believe that when you're in love, sacrifice is an important factor because it shows that you care for that person and you would go out of your way to care for them.

As someone once said, love involves 60/40 from both parties, with both parties thinking that they are giving 60 into the relationship. That's love. You don't calculate whether the relationship's fair at all, it just is without thinking.

Capricorn sun, Sag venus. I might edit this post later when my mind is more calm and tranquil as it is not atm.
