Thoughts on being in love with someone so much you cry...

[ms_ann_thrope]

Some relationships are utilitarian, better than being alone. Infatuations come and go.

I was in love once, long ago. The kind of love that brings euphoria one moment and dysphoria the next. It died a tragic death.

I appreciate having had the experience. God can be benevolent.

God has seen fit to bring me love, possibly one last time. Unexpectedly. Maybe it is a gift for having lived so long and managing not to stab anyone in the eye socket. A word, or a smile, or a picture can set me off and tears will run down my cheeks. It's wonderful and terrible.

Or it could be a heavenly banana peel on the path to salvation.

heavenly banana peel? my morning giggle.

I am experiencing that right now, but the tears are because circumstances won't allow us to be together.

Who do you think I am?

Your mother?

The only people I've ever loved so much as to bring tears are my children.
The banana peel analogy however... resonates

I only cry over dead dogs and children. Everything else is easily replaced.

 

[satindesire]

I've been there. I've noticed that people that inspire that level of emotion in me are the ones I love the most and the longest and the ones I fight the hardest for to make it work. You really can't put a price on a relationship with someone that gets to you like that.

You have a nose like a bluetick coonhound.

For once we agree on something. No one is worth that much pain over.



Perhaps that is why I am still alone, huh?

Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.

You are so right but the positive out weights the pain. Those that will hate you for a moment will pull you out of of of disaster of your own making the next day

A few are, but the other 99% aren't. If there was a way to sort them out!

I do think, tho, that the more needy your partner is, the more likely it is they'll break your heart.

memories that never go away

I had a gf when I was in my early 20's that I cannot forget. I think about her everyday. That was in Cali and long time ago. I don't cry about it but I feel sad about it. About 7 months of the most passion I ever felt in my life, the whole thing crashed and burned and I left Cali and have never been back.

A song by the 88's called "You belong to me" is a sad song. Or maybe melacholy. "Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me" by the Smiths is about the saddest song ever written.

My Jennifer is the only person, other then my best friend, who I would cry over.



Look at me, talking all big, one day God is going to smite me.

If you're going to get smited, it might as well be by the best.

I only cry for Argentina.

I thought that you might be Madonna.

... Maybe it is a gift for having lived so long...
