Love #1

Saw this from my friend's blog, just too good to pass it off as mere reading. Shall propagate these thoughts, which so happen to coincide with mine... 100%.

I think it’s critical for two people to understand each other’s heart and learn to accommodate each other’s differences rather than simply turning a blind eye or deaf ear ‘because I love him and that’s all that matters’. Because if two people are too different in the way they think, behave or live.. I reckon it will become a huge problem when the infatuation bubble bursts.


The soul aspect is when you start to see and want to share the rest of your life with this one other. And not in a clingy “I can’t live without you” way, but in a way that I can still live my life without you as I have before I met you, but now that you’ve come to exist in my life, I see the possibility of a life with you and now I actually want to make decisions and live a life, continuing to create more moments and memories together with you.

There's a fine line between clingy and loving / intimate. There are times where one should be "clingy" as this demonstrates this collapse of a physical barrier between the couple. This shows the want to be together and the importance one place on the other, since when you are clingy you actually "sacrifice" your own personal time and space to be with the person, it's akin offering yourself to the other person (minus the sexual connotations). Of course this should not be too much when it suffocates the other party and robs him/her of his/her own personal life.

One note to myself: You are loving the person, doesn't mean you own the person (contrary to what the popular statement of: You're mine).
