It's so sad, but I've never dated a girl that I've truly loved. But just having someone and being in a relationship makes my life so much better even when I'm not into them. It's hard to imagine what it would be like to actually be with someone who I was in love with.

Awww. For what it's worth many of us have been there before. It'll happen someday. Odds are that person(s) for you has/have been born and walking around searching but not finding. So in a certain way there is at least one person who feels exactly what you feel. That's not just romantic BS. You can't make 2 without 1+1.

for me it started as complete shock. Seeing him for the first time and both our worlds went hazy except for the golden glow around eachother. I was unaware of everything including myself. I could've had my mouth open or fallen over and i wouldn't have known it.

 

A about four years later we were finally in a position to be together. So we took every chance we could. Still not even admitting to eachother the intense feelings we were feeling. It was a slow dance, playing in the ocean, teaching him to ride a bike, having burrito eating contests, playing board games, him thinking i was completely asleep on the couch and tucking me in, all before our first kiss.

 

Our first date to see a movie and not seeing any of it because we were talking and laughing and so hungry for one another. This complete and total awe, like we knew the secret of life. And it lived inside our love. We were better than best friends, not yet even lovers. Almost a telepathic connection. So close we could sense everything unspoken between us.

 

I encouraged him to draw, he encouraged me to write. I encouraged him to be free, he

reminded me what it was to be free. Learning loving growing. It was amazing.

 

I still remember how it felt 6 years later. And since everytime we're together its like we're fighting this urge not to just dive into eachother again. He has shaped my view of love. Once you experience love like this you can never go back. You'll be a junkie chasing the dragon. I would be happy if i could find even 50percent of this love again. I feel extremly lucky to have had it once.

 

If you think it'll happen for you i really hope it does. But you have to be open to it. Love and hope are two things i'll never give up on.
