a love too strong: where does it go wrong

can you love too hard?

its amazing is it not? Love. you meet someone and you instantly connect. you've only known each other for a lil' while and you're already finishing each others' sentences. you know how he/she will respond. you already have a well developed body language code to send signals to each other in the presence of people, you even know what that look means. you know the look, the slight peering over a raised coffee mug in starbucks that says im gonna head to the bathroom, i'll give you 45 secs, and then you follow. yeah that look. the one that says baby I love you and baby i want you in a way that no words can describe. the one that says yes, i will have your babies right now.

could a love too strong, make you see the rest of your life with that one person? make you change your entire out look. from not wanting kids to happily saying, 'with you if it happens, it happens'. make you start thinking bout family cars instead of that hot two seater that bmw just brought out. make you think about houses with playing grounds out in the 'burbs than your mid town bachelor/ bachelorette pad thats close to all the hottest haunts in town. make you pause for a moment and actually thinking bout passing up on that offer to the new club opening where the who's who of showbiz would be to just kicking back with your man/woman at home.

the thing is, if your love starts off like this....and for many it has, how do you sustain it? surely theres a time when the euphoria will fade, when some form of normalcy will set in, right? how do our best relationships turn into our worst relationships?

do we love to a degree of naiveness that we are almost aloof of our partners drawback and flaws. couple this with the former, wont our best relationships soon turn to our worst? wont our saintly patience soon turn in to unpredictable episodes similar in angst to roid rage?

makes you wonder and makes you think........

i personally believe that a lasting relationship can still have all the passion and fieriness it had in the begining, if, the people involved in it are totally honest with their feelings about eachother and respectful and mindful of eachother as individuals and never expect or take eachother for granted.......

or i am just being naive.......

will keep you posted

U describe a love stronger than the words of Shakespeare & the Songs of Solomon combined. A love that most people only ever dream off. As someone has already indicated, the depth of emotion is so deep, it's almost palatable.

Moving words indeed!!
