It depends on how the person makes you feel, wanting money isn't love...that is just use... Being lonely isn't a good reason to think that you're in love with someone, it's all in the feelings.

Because he saved my life. Twice.
Because he can make me laugh.
He makes me feel so much better when I´m down.
Because I know the "real" him under his tough shell.
Because I´m still with him,even we have changed so much.
Because the way we met was so strange and unforgettable.
Because of the endless discussions we have had, and all the secrets we share with eachother.
Because he loves me,despite how difficult I can be, despite my stupid mistakes, despite my dark secrets....

...mysterious....^-^

You´re right, Haivart. ....but I think a lot of people don´t know what "LOVE" is, so they think they are fallen in love....

if two people keep that feeling same time same way, they would be great together as bf/gf and the best friends...
I guess... What about when people change, have new hobbies, interests etc. That´s what´s happening to me and my boyfriend, and I actually don´t know if the reasons we fell in love count anymore.Does anyone else have experiences of the same kind?

I don´t know if we´re together just because we´re used to beeing so, and because we´re remembering the wonderful times we´ve had before. We have totally different goals etc.He´s so into wrestling, sports etc, and it takes so much of his time...and I can´t stand it...And, I´m in love with Japan, and that´s something he doesn´t understand.
Ín a way I´m afraid to make an end to our relationship, because somehow I´m afraid for him...I don´t want to see him ending up alone...I´m so twisted ? ..:)

Sorry for this "psychological pouring", but I´d like to hear some opinions..

beeing a bit different is good...beeing too different will probably not last for a long time... and I know, the worst is when someone can´t understand your interests.... @ Chipi

Hey chelo!
==> look in his eyes and you´ll know the answer...
-If you want a relationship, if you want him to be your boyfriend, tell it to him and ask for it... GO FOR IT!!! http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/great.gif
(...but this is always a risk, because you could destroy the company you´ve had...decide what you want.... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/confused.gif.)

hmmm right now i dont love someone as a partner. but ive few friends and some of them mean really a lot of me. most of them are good 10 years older (somehow i get along better with people who are older then me). we dont see each other daily but we know each other well. we phone often, visit at times, watch movies, she cooks mostly then and likes giving me lots of stuff for the flat me and friends live in (like tea and cooking-plates and whatever)... its just a relaxed and nice friendship.
but its not a material-based friendship, its jus that we know each other very well and like helping each other.
ah well... and i love my dog... but my dog lives at my family and i see it only once every half year and it seems to age far too fast. its now getting blind of age... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/sad.gif

Your're not corny, Elisakim. Some people don't fall in love as early as others. I know what you mean--I've been there.

@elisakim ==> You´ll fine the one... and if there is a chance... ======>>>>TAKE IT!!!!!!!!! ^^

wow... seems that you are right, elisakim, but it´s hard that you´ve never been in love with someone. I hope, and I´m sure that you will find your one!

I've liked people before but never got into a relationship, eh maybe I'm just picky..http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/poh.gif

konnichiwa!
I have a constant companion, he makes me smile, we shop together, we watch movies together and he even calls me everyday. I love him because he's always there for me, we even say i love you to each other but still he's not my boyfriend and i'm not sure if he already has a girlfriend.

My dilemma: Do we really love each other or we just enjoy each other's company.

magirawashii ne?

i had many crushes in my life but never had a boyfriend. i want a guy who would make me feel good and have the time 4 me.

I never really like the right guy. I end up liking the person who is my guy friend at the time. And right now the person I love is one of my guy friends. He's great. He's always there for me and actually cares. The only probelm is the major thing that I'm looking for isn't there. He's not religious. Although that may not sound important, religion is the most important thing in my life. I want someone I can serve God with and I want God in my marriage. Sorry, I think I am just ranting. I am really too young to think about this anyhow.

Thanxx, elisakim, that´s nice of you!
=>Yes... in MANGA/Animes, the characters are always cool or pretty... but that´s just fiction... so we have to seek our luck in reality... that´s often hard ´cause we can´t always get what we want.... but: - THAT`S LIVE
(Live is cruel and sometimes wonderful ^-^ )

I love this "somebody" because he could express love better than I do. He was able to express his love by kissing, fondling and making love to me.

I lost him five years ago, but I still love him very much till this very day. I'm currently looking for him. Wish me luck!

I love everybody b/c everybody is innocent. Like my dog or my little brother.
http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/confused.gif But love-love, I wouldn't know b/c I'm a 20 year old virgin who has never been in love.
I do know that love is very often mistaken for attachment.
I think you love someone for the way they make you feel inside, that special eternal feeling. ;)
I know I'm corny... http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/m-tabako.gif

If I went into why....I would end up w/ a rant. I once wrote why and wrote a page and 1/4 - 1/2 of reasons. But simply put, he's my best friend and has always been there for me in the short time I have known him. If I really need it, he will hug me. That may seem like a weird reason, but what I mean by that is...he knows me well and even tho he is not a huggy person..he will at the right give hugs. It's unrequited I think, but even so...he's a good friend, so it doesn't matter because...he's still my friend. Can't ask for more than that. lol I think I did a mini rant.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/blush2.gif ;)

;) Oh..Thanks Himura. Your so sweet.
Though I do wish I could just hop into an anime and grab a really cool pretty boy to be my boyfriend!! Heehee...http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/poh.gif
