I have been in and out of love many times....as a man..this is a difficult subject..My instinct is that of a provider...I seem to focus more on things and work harder when it's not for just me.....at 32....I know my clock is tickin'. I am starting over from scratch..ONCE AGAIN...I've never tied the KNOT..But am trying to build Rome in a day......Moving on....Moving out....all the while wanting to settle down...Holy vulnerability Batman!! I'm not trying to sell myself to pity, Nor am I trying to find a sugar mama....I want to work towards a good life. I'm putting a serious question out for the masses (women and men alike) to answer in a direct and forthright manner.....I'm trying not to look back, but I still remember a time or two when I felt Love..genuine Love...and I long for that. What's a guy to do.....Thanks for your help.....If I was gonna hold a sign beside the road...It would read...(Will work for Love, And cook you dinner, M'am)

You can forget love. Usually, until you see the person again and it'll all come back to you. So far (I'm 28) my longest relationship was nearly 4 years, it's been over 2 since we broke up and I still feel it. I want to rip out whatever part of me feels it rather then wait on time to heal it. Once you are in love, you always will be. Just do your best to forget it. The exact color of her eyes. The way light falls on her face. The way she smelled, and felt to lay next to. All this will fade. I always fantasize one day I'll experience true love and this will all seem like a harmless crush.

I don't think that real love ever goes away. I have parents who were married for twenty years that recently got a divorce. My dad had cheated on my mom, and ended up getting his girlfriend pregnant. As much as she wants to hate him for this, she still does love him. She won't take him back, but she does love him. I think real love is something that will last forever. In her case, this will probably make her hurt forever as well. I also don't think that real love doesn't necessarily have to be love at first sight. Real love is more than just a physical attraction, you have to have a connection where you are willing to do anything in the world for the other person, even if that means hurting yourself in the process. I guess this is where the term "love hurts" comes from. Most people that I know, myself included do not find true love when they are looking. Believe it or not, I believe most find their true love when they are not looking.

you cannot be in and out of love. love is everlasting. it is a foundation to many people's marriage, families and relatives rely on it to keep in touch. love is not forged but it is malleable.
