So a long time ago, I posted about how I didn't believe in the concept of love (entry here) and I still don't, really.  I don't know why.  I don't mean to sound like Summer from 500 Days of Summer (Oh my God.  I hate that movie), but I don't believe in love.  I used to when I was younger and a bit more naive, but after hearing so many stories of ( Read more... )

"to adore someone despite their quirks and failings, when you want to spend every waking moment of your time with somebody,"

Definitely that. I also have a very monogamous definition that includes something to the tune of only wanting to be with that person even if other attractive possibilities pop up.

I never really thought about the feelings involved in being in love. It's just something that's never been explainable for me and I never really questioned it as "oh well I just think I'm in love" or anything like that.

It's interesting to actually define it; I like you definition, though.

As much as I try to pretend I'm not, deep down I'm the biggest hopeless romantic. Albeit, I find some things to be romantic while others find it to be obscure, but I'm a huge sucker for that kind of stuff. I also think that soul-mates aren't necessarily lovers (although lovers can be soul-mates) and whenever I find myself "lonely," I think more in terms of soul-mate and not as in I want a relationship.

I do believe in soul-mates! And I think your idea of soulmates fits mine as well.

I used to be a huge hopeless romantic (and who wouldn't be after watching a bajillion Disney movies), but after a while, I feel like I might have grown out of it. Or you know, one too many heartbreaks in high school made me this pessimistic bitter thing. HAHA! I wish I could grow back into it though.

I think the fact that I've only been in one "relationship" (just recently and I used quotations because it ended in under a month) keeps the romantic in me alive. I also kind of think I'm in love right now... but am in half-hearted denial.

EEE! That must be wondrous though.

I'm in very strong like with my boyfriend, but we both found that we're not believers in love. :( I wish he was, so he could convince me though.

I still don't believe in it and I'm incredibly weird about my definition and don't whole heartedly think it's right. I don't know. I'm a very strange girl who doesn't know what she's thinking most of the time.
