It seams as though as long as a person is nice enough and has a lot going for them, that people will give people a chance; as long as they are attracted to them, and really like the person.

 

... But I have this thing, where I think that there has to be "something" special. You know, a particular " feeling" you get. Nevertheless, I see people who meet, like each other a lot, and are attracted. So they go for it and develop feelings. But are these the feelings of the most deapest love? Or is it just a love that has been built through shared experiences, sexual attraction, lots of fun times together, and mutual respect.

 

For example, you meet an attractive person, are attracted to the way they look, and they are a great person and all, so you start going out. I think a LOT of people must overlook any special feeling that is lacking, and just go for it because they like the person a lot and are sexually attracted to them..

 

...But what about waiting for a special feeling about someone? Does anyone around here place any value on that? Or am I just living in a fairy tale?

It sounds to be like this feeling is the difference between being in love, vs just loving a person a great deal; that special feeling you have with a person who may be less attractive and fabulous, than that super hot girl who is great and you have so much fun with, but who you just do not have that " special feeling" for.

I think what you are referring to is "chemistry", and it is amazing when you can experience it with someone.

 

Having chemistry is really intense.

 

That being, it lessens with time, and you end up in the same place that you would with someone to whom you are attracted to and like.

 

However, if you don't have chemistry, you might be left wondering:"Could there be more?"

It sounds like you're talking about being in love vs just liking someone. A strong long lasting relationship requires that "something special" you're talking about, it requires truly loving that person for who they are.
