mrdreamjeansI'm in a bit of a contemplative mood. Pondering feelings; undecided on answers, interested in opinions. Here's a couple of the concepts which I'm mulling/find amusing and I'd like to know how others feel.
1) Have you ever had a moment of pure joy? If you have an example, please share. I'd like to hear it and read about it.
2) The statement - "You can never love someone too much." I believe this to be true and would add, "or too well". Do you agree or disagree?
3) Do you believe in the concept of having a "best" friend? If you do, tell me what your best friend means to you.
4) Do you believe in love at first sight?
When I have really been in love, I felt an instant, unexplainable connection to the other person that transcended simple desire; the chemistry was immediate. It just felt right from the get-go.
I've never taken things slowly, knowing someone for some time before discovering I was in love. I've heard this described as "dreary, rather like buying a car and not having to make payments on it for a year or two." I have a tendency to agree, but then I'm a hopeful romantic. If I did take things slowly, no matter how honorable my intentions, you can bet I was biding my time till the right person came along:)
Is this romantic hogwash to you or do you believe in love at first sight?
Just wondering.........

Re: questions, questions, questions
Date: 2004-07-16 04:49 pm (UTC)I never know how much I will be attracted to someone until I speak with them. I can look across a crowded room and appreciate the external package, but until I hear them speak and look into their eyes, I can't read the chemistry.
As to attraction in general - I don't always know my yesses, but I most certainly know my no's:) The handsomest house with no one at home can stay on the market if I'm doing the viewing; I want my house occupied, ready to be at home with me:)
