Love is something for which we always strive for. Even if it is something we know we can never have. It builds us up and then tears us apart. We would give our lives if only to experience the moment of complete bliss and happiness that is being in love. The ability to hold someone close and never let go. The ability to see yourself spending the rest of your life with them. You spend every minute thinking of them and yearning for the time when you'll be together again. You’d do anything to protect them. To keep them happy is what you live for. When they cry, you cry. When they laugh, it is the most beautiful sound in the world. Love is a deep yearning. A sense of longing, that grows stronger and stronger the more time you spend away from those you truly care for.
In some cases you wish you could hide away, to not have to experience these feelings because you know that in the end you might get hurt. But you keep falling in love because you know that one day, one day soon, you will find someone who will never leave you. Someone who will stay by your side no matter what happens. They will do their best to shelter you and comfort you. To hold you in their arms until all your troubles melt away. You can't wait to come home to them and see their smiling face again.
Love is a scary thing. It signifies complete devotion to someone else. You always wonder what will happen when it ends. You’re shattered when it does, and you feel like there's no reason to go on. You feel like you can't trust anyone, but then you find someone else. At first you don't want to be open with them, for fear of being hurt again, but then you realize that they'll love you no matter what. The thing is, if you really love someone, you should be able to tell them anything. If you're afraid they may hate you for telling them, then they don't love you.
It’s a feeling that consumes your entire body and soul. It sets you on fire. A feeling to strong for words. When you find it you want to grab hold of it and never let go. Then you realize there’s nothing you can do to hold on. You realize that one day you won’t be with the one you love. It is only a fleeting moment in your life. One that you’ll remember with great joy, but you’ll never be able to spend your life with them. Love’s cruel trick, you live and die for the person, even when you know it will end. The one thing you will remember is you have experienced what true love is, which is the greatest thing in the world. One day it may end, but enjoy it while you can and if it does, no matter what happens, there will always be someone better.

i really liked the ending to this... it was kind of oddly uplifting. i thought the whole thing would be sooooo emo but i like it.
When you're in love, what makes it so great and meaningful is that it is the best experience someone could have with a person. By saying that there is always someone better implies that what you called love wasn't really the real thing. Love is special and unique. The whole point is that once you've found love there is no one better.
Otherwise I agree with what you said.
You know all my views on love changed in a moment this weekend. So I can't even really reply to this... I don't even know what I would say.
I liked the begining, but the ending was depressing and oddly offensive to me.
why do you act so jilted all the time if you feel this way about love?!
Shaun, you will be published with this stuff I do believe. I will be walking through a book store and see a book with Fabio on the cover in a sweet embrace with some blonde woman and the byline will read

Jilted fo' LIFE
I think you've covered every possible cheesy aspect of love and it's slings and arrows. Poor guy, I just hope you find someone to share all your joy and sorrow so the rest of us can be spared....
Shaun, I'll be the first guy.
Love is an abstract idea that defined by chemicals in the brain that stimulate a certain synaptic response.
Well sometimes, what we want, we can never have.
Everyone goes through this with a first love, maybe a second or third. If you hide from love and you aren't open about things, you could really miss out. You have to take the risk of getting hurt, because if you don't then you could lose your true love. You shouldn't just assume that it won't work out, and everything will end just because it has happened to you before. I like all of this except for the last sentence..because sometimes you can't find a better person, if you lost the one that you should be with. When two people are honest, loyal, faithful and are inseparable, and would die for each other and could never imagine loving someone else. That's when you should know it's real.
