Something I read from my lil bro's post..that he found about my man John. haha. I thought I should share it with you guys too.

John Mayer... said:

"...when you first meet somebody, you find out they like you first of all.. firend of a friend of theirs says he or she really really likes you and it kills you, floors you, sends you to the ground... you gotta pick yourself off the ground. Then you get their phone number and call them up, right?

And then you say, "Yeah!... that was a great phone conversation!.. Can i see ya sometime?"

And then they say this... they say, "I'd like that." ....

"i'd like that" makes you fall on the floor again... your hearts about to stop because of.... "i'd like that".... nothing feels better than............. "i'd like that"...

... so now, you're blood pressure's going, you're six feet off the ground, you can't sleep because of "i'd like that..." So then you hang out for a while... and you call and talk on the phone all the time, and then you drop the bomb.. what feels like the bomb..
and you say "you know what?.. i've been thinking about ya a lot..."

and she goes...[*siiggghhhh*], -

and you go, "what happened?",

and she goes, "i'm sorry, i'm sorry... i jus... i just.. i just been thinking about you too..."

BAM! Higher into the sky... but now, "i'd like that," - Done. Now you're up to, "I'm thinking about you.."...

.... Then however number of months pass, that makes you feel comfortable saying it...

you say, "i gotta tell you something..."

they go, "What?"...

you go, "i'm in love with you..."

and nothing in the world sounds better than, "i'm in love with you...." and maybe she starts crying and maybe you're like... [*gasp for air*]...

... but now.. what doesn't work? "i'd like that.." and "I've been thinking about ya..." now were at "I'm in love with you.." Then maybe someday you move up to "I love you..." Fast Foward. Now you're like, "I love you a lot - i love you more than anything in life..." and now "I love you.." doesn't work. It's a threshold and it keeps moving up...

... Fast Foward, six moths - six weeks, whatever the case may be... and now you're on like, "I wanna marry you!"... "I wanna impregnate you with my love!"... "I wanna- wanna just send my love to you - dammit words don't work anymore....!"... and then you say this line..

"I just wished they put a new word in the dictionary bigger than love, cause love just doesn't describe what i feel!"....

... and so now, he or she starts asking, "do ya love me??" and then you start saying, "of course i love you!"... "Well, say it!?!!" And then it becomes, "Say it twice!" and then "Say it three times!" AND THEN you cross a really interesting point... where all of a sudden it becomes....

... "i hate you." ..... "i hate you..." and then you go, "Oh my god, she hates me!?" And now its like, "I hate you more than anything!" and then its like, "We're over!" and then they go, "NO! we're not!" and you go, "Yes we are!"

Now the words completely do not work at all... you're left with nothing.. .you're throwing punches underwater... you're done.

You know what the moral of that story is? if there is one?

NEVER - EVER - EVER underestimate the power of.....

".....I'd Like That...."
