Love is just a feeling?

Love is just a feeling in the beginning and after that it becomes an attitude and by accepting it, a relationship tends to last longer???? Is that really it? Maybe i am too romantic for my own good, but this sounds really tragic... i never said love is easy, it takes effort from both parties to work.. but to let it sink and become an attitude... does it take the romance out of it? Does it take the excitement and the slight heart pumping feeling.. butterflies in the stomach.. or the safe and warm feeling of seeing the one you love away when it sinks to a level of just an attitude?

This is really the first time i i have come across this idea of it becoming an attitude...is it the same as obligation? Or does it just sounds better than obligation? And what about it being habit? Afterall human beings are creatures of habit and having the person around could just become habit and when you actually lose the romance.. does love slowly fade away too? Till you don't even realise it and when you do, could it be you have gone to the stage where there is no turning back and that is when the obligation part comes it... Tragedy!!! Taking effort to maintain that love is worth it right? Wouldn't everyone want to have that head over heels feeling of love?

That feeling of being in love, knowing you love and being loved, the safe and warm fuzziness in the heart and everything looks much better.. haha or am i just being too naive? Is it just that love does not exist long term? Is this really one of those harsh realities and fact of life? Does everyone agree? Or does somebody out there believe that it exists for life and is possible?

mm... late nights are fun.. because there is alot of peace and quietness.. and i love the idea of it being so quiet and peaceful i can hear myself think.. even though i can hear the sound of traffic.. but it feels strangely serene and safe to hear it... oh the deep fried half chicken at a certain place in holland village is not really that nice.... mm... kind of dry.. but the salad that came with it was quite nice...even though i did not finish my two glasses of asahi, i think its good deal.. $10 for 2 glasses.. :)

oooops, didn't realise i was going to start a tidal wave of cynicism. romance is great, the feelings that comes with it, the excitement, the 'butterflies-in-the-stomach'... i barely remember how that feels. haha! ending up with the right person is not as important as he wanting to make it work out. your 'knight-in-shining-armour' will not be able to withstand your scrutiny, the tarnishes will be obvious the more you look. you need love/lust to get it started... and a whole lot of tolerance and acceptance to keep it going. hopefully he's not an absolute bastard in the 1st place... if he is then don't bother of course. don't waste your time on losers... or married men.

haha no no, its not you.. its something that i've always thought of and felt about.. so i guess its true when they say love is blind? At first all the not so perfection is hardly felt but as time goes by, it become intolerable? haha.. but..i guess there isn't really a right person is there? People change all the time...and then of course there is neither perfection..so learning to love the person you are with is it right?

whatever it is, growing to love, learning to love or just plain tolerating each other... it all can't be planned and anticipated. no guarantees even if the next guy you meet happens to be a takeshi-lookalike and is attracted to death to your personality and looks... just gotta give it a shot rite?
