ITT Super Dude over reacts about the dangers of the internet, we beat the dead horse about something that happened days ago, we chat, and we definitely do not keep the thread on topic.

What's his pseudo account?
His Facebook account. He's given himself the fake name "Bob Doe". He was probably trying to go for "Bob Dole" but failed.

QUESTION

What's the difference between "love" as in "I love you"

and

"In love" as in "I'm in love with you"?

You can be "in love" with one person.
You can love everyone.

I asked this question back several months ago. Everyone has their own definition of love. But usually, "I love you" is more of a...friendship sort of thing, I suppose? It isn't in the deep sense where you would do anything for this person, and they are the most important thing in the world.

Being in love, is exactly that. This person is by far the most important person in your life, you put them up on a pedestal, and you will do whatever you possibly can to make sure that pedestal stays nice and tidy.

Others might and will disagree with that I'm sure, but that's always how I've looked at it.

Side note: As discovered from recent events, being in love is a two way street. One can feel they are deeply in love, while the other just loves them as a friend and doesn't want to see them get hurt. That shit sucks when it doesn't work out properly. Be careful when it comes to expressing love towards someone.

Also this. Definitely.

Being in love with someone consumes every fiber of your being. You feel it non stop, and it will never relent. Your whole life revolves around pleasing that person.





Its a fucking curse

^^^I think that goes by a different name.

Yeah, I agreed with you there up until the part where you said it was a curse.  It's only a curse if it's non-reciprocal.  But otherwise, yeah, limerence (a.k.a infatuation) can be a real bitch.  I'm going to therapy for a limerence incident that I believed I'd gotten over almost five years ago.

True Death of Life

That sucks, SD.

I can see where you're coming from PLM, but I mostly just agree with the first part.

I am just amazed that my parent's marriage has worked and stuff, you know? They're polar opposites, but have been married for 22 years.

Do you think they are still "in love" or do they just "love" each other now?

I know what infatuation is, because I've gone through it. This is different. For over a year I've felt this way, and no matter what I do to try and get over her, I can't. It's almost destroyed me this year

I saw Hot Tub Time Machine with Ms. Goon over the weekend.

Um, I think that is the best statement I have read on this forum.  Very well said.
