Let's talk about "Love"

Doesn't it always seem when you see a couple getting together, you suddenly start to see EVERYONE getting together?

and of course the same applies fo the opposite situation.

Ever wonder if there is a pattern there?
Doesn't it bother you how when you just heard one get-together story then you hear another. You hear one break up story then you hear another and another. They all happen during the same period.

It's like when one thing that you really really wish didn't happen HAPPENED then all the shit comes crashing down. It all comes in strings.

But anyways, the thing is I like listening to stories. Some people think being in a relationship is about finding a missing part of your heart, some people think it's about a whole lot of physical, some think it's about finding your best friend. Now, that's all fine and dandy but I think all those can be classified as a relationship, no? They are all relationships.

A friend pointed out in a comment he made that even though a couple may not be doing all the physical stuff, it still doesn't mean that feelings of love were not present. I like that argument. However, it brings me to the next point about what love is about?

Is love suppose to be difficult? Is it suppose to just fall into place?

Why does one friend of mine have so many arguments and comprimises in the relationship but yet it works out and somehow everything is fine and dandy? Why does another friend remember having everything being great in the relationship? Why does someone else believe that no matter the feelings of love, one still has to live in the real world and face the facts that obstacles are standing in the way of the relationship?

Is there really a formulae of how everything should work out in a game of love? Obviously not. But then, what should one expect? How should one feel before deciding to make a move? When should someone take the risk on their feelings despite all the rational arguments against it?

I don't know about everyone else but I have come to believe that everything should fall into place with lovc (if there really is such a feeling). Though I wonder whether it will all just subtly mash together like how clapping your hands together is only natural when impressed with an outstanding performance or how the wings of the butterfly go in sync despite the wind. Despite all that, everything still only comes together because of the initiation of something. So, I guess there's nothing really in life that drops to your feet just like that. No. Not even love.
