It happens all the fucking times. One cannot count the number of older German sex tourists that fell in love with a Thai whore and married her against all common sense. There's a reason the premoderns considered love as nearly some kind of disease.

I've only ever fallen in love when I was in school, and during those times I enjoyed school immensely and got good grades. I wish some equivalent to that would happen now. I never got with those girls btw, and in hind sight they probably would of accepted if I asked them out.

>Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

>2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

>3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

>4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

>5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

>6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

>7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

>8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

>9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

>10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

>11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

>12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

>13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.


As it pertains to romantic love, I disagree. However, translating "agape" as charity is apt. Whereas lust is binding an object in shackles and having your way, love is shackling oneself and asking to be spanked. I think Gibran called love freedom but those in love are a slave to their object of desire.

I fall in love with a new girl almost every day; I see her and know who she is, not as she is, but in a reality of my own. This one might appear cold and abrasive but is enflamed with secret passion when we're alone. She loves all things that are dear to me. Her slight nose, the curl of her lip coquettish in a way only I can perceive, her volcanic eyes. she clutches me tighter, tighter, drawing me into an enchanted grasp. That night, I find her on Tinder and discover that she "loves doggos" and "binge watching 'The Office'"

Yeah, honestly. I've been brainwashed by literature into expecting a woman to love me as truly and strongly as I do her. But every time I get destroyed when she leaves me because she's suddenly bored with the relationship, cheats on me, feels like she needs more independence, etc. The fact is that women aren't capable of romantic love like men are, and they will leave you the moment they feel you aren't providing for entirely all of their needs.

I really want to know what the feeling of loving someone is like, and not in the way one loves his brother or his mother and cares for them but when one is deeply attracted to a soulmate. I have read about love but some of the most romantic passages for me were in Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human, i want to feel that way about girls or guys and sometimes i think i do but the feeling passes as quickly as it comes. There is a girl i've known for 3 years that i have kept contact with and every other month she pops back up, talking to me, getting my attention, and i give it, but my attention never lasts. My sister asked why i do that to girls who keep coming back but i don't know why. How can i fall in love, what do i need to do?

Women can love aspects of you, or more generally an "idea" of you. I don't think men can love either, not in the way that he means. We can nurture an abstraction of romantic love better than women can, but that's it.

>Do you regret falling in love?

yes

"love" is a temporary biological compulsion. romance is nature's hoodwink; it is all smoke and mirrors.

"falling in love" is such an apt term, because cupid's arrow fells the thinking mind

the only real and abiding love is God
