For instance, you meet a girl or guy that enjoys being around you. You aren't usually into blondes, but hey, they like you. A month later you all of a sudden love blondes. You find out they don't go to church very often. You don't approve of this, but in a month or two, you don't mind. All of this is a chain reaction. You begin to like every thing about the person based on the fundamental fact of them liking you to begin with. Once you get so engrossed in the person, you begin to evolve your thoughts of them. You begin to REALLY like them, or "love" them. You can't spend your life without them. Expect maybe if you met someone else who liked you.

In some cases i'm sure that's true, but i'm inclined to disagree. Firstly, it takes the magic away from being in love i mean, if you wanna look at it another way, you could say that you love something or someone because of chemical changes in your head created by your genes or certain connections in your brain. But does that sound human? nah, not really. The idea of love is more than complicated and if it were as easy as summing it up in a paragraph or two, then why are there so few people who have mastered or even truly found it? I choose to look at it this way: There are probably many people out in the world that you could be happy with and make a lasting and meaningful relationship with, but if you're lucky you meet one.
I've been with my girlfriend for almost 2 years now, and we've been past the stage of puppy love, we've been sick of eachother and now we can see the differences in eachother more than ever. Do i love her? Yes, with all my heart and I wouldn't give her up for the world. I'm sure there are other people in the world I could be with, but I honestly don't give a shit because in that respect she is the only one for me. There's a lot more to love than interests and the buzz of someone actually liking you. Anyone in a real and lasting relationship already knows that.
