...ooo u just made me regret not doing something...<br /><br />I agree with the love being diff from what we all imagine it to be. For most of my life I was practical, ruthless in relationships with almost everyone and understood love as necessary, deep and protective. For me love didn't mean nurturing/inspiring until I met J. I don't think it means the same for everyone. But I thoroughly enjoy the cocoon I get to live/love in bcos of J. So yes, living it is diff from imagining it. <br /><br />This reminds me of how a lot of women imagine their marriage...they stop at visualizing a wonderful dreamy wedding and then have no clue how to get past their first argument over closet space! haha. Its a process of self-discovery.Riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049252702914488290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12934803.post-12295613947755308042009-04-16T17:08:00.000-07:002009-04-16T17:08:00.000-07:00@ Anamika
Interesting observation. And quite true...@ Anamika<br /><br />Interesting observation. And quite true. The sense of security that encompasses the relation now makes me feel stronger. <br /><br />When we started talking, I don't think I imagined a romance would have been possible. The distance was frustrating. In fact, he went on a date with a Polish girl once when he was talking to me. He had asked me before going. I felt a pang of jealousy - quite surprisingly. He says he talked to her about things he talked to me. And there was never a second date. <br /><br />It is hard to point out one single thing that made it happen. I believed myself to be a romantic and I thought I knew how love should be. But it is so different when I am living it. It is so much more than I could have possibly imagined.

You are us...Very interesting post coming from you. You are usually liberal with your "to be shared" emotions, but guarded about things where u were especially vulnerable. That's why the part about interesting post. Which also leads me to believe u have reached a pt of security in how you view this relationship. Just an observation...in case u start taking me too seriously. <br /><br />I am not a huge romantic about relationships even tho my fantasies about a romantic life are unending. But I have to say here one of your conclusions is dead on. It is very important to relax and accept if u want relationships to move ahead. Too high expectations for flowers every Sunday morning are difficult to meet no matter what century u r living in. That being said, u seriously talked about "existentialism" in the beginning of your relationship with ur guy??? :) Wouldn't mind a post about all those ideas you have floating around inside ur head.Riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049252702914488290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12934803.post-18816570958530960662009-04-12T08:36:00.000-07:002009-04-12T08:36:00.000-07:00Strangely enough, while reading this post I was re...Strangely enough, while reading this post I was reminded of Lara's theme, from Dr. Zhivago!!
