Another taboo topic!

Let me say this: I wonder - is this really true? My POV - yes...

Scenario 1: We all go throuhg calf love - crushes what ever you want to call it - when its acted upon - even if you know its not serious - there is some experience in terms of knowing that feeling... and then we typically tend to "control" right - if we know its reciprocated

Scenartio 2: We know - but cant control and get carried with the flow - sometimes to a good positive end and at other times not.

Vow - I am sorry - I must have offended folks. Mods - please feel free to delete.

Its really v deep...& mebe ppl r taking their time to respond

I think falling in love is a most beautiful feeling...but i am cynic...& dont believe in forevers or in fact earth shattering, knee jerking notion of love!

Yes I fall in love...& oh so often...much to the embarrassment of my hubby!!!I gush over a newborn(most of my friends are popping atm..hence this is my latest flavour of love)...i gush over actors...i gush over a hottie walking past me...crushes?? I still have them yaar...& i dont regret them...coz i dont act on them..just gush till someone asks me to shut up!!

So to sum up, I am of opinion that having loved & lost is better than not loving at all...as long as u dont get lost in regrets & blame games!! Then its better not to love at all!!

I'm not sure if scenario 3 is feasible/exists...there cannot be many people who havent mooned over someone silently (scenario1) , even if it's a storybook hero😊 ...

I for one believe that love is more than just a "feeling"...It's a decision and a choice...While feelings make it easier to do (or not do) something, they are not dependable and are as changeable as the wind, despite countless poems and songs to the contrary...Some days we feel more loving towards the people in our life, on other days, not so much...So while "feelings" help love, they are not a dependable crutch...Every day we all make multiple small decisions on whether we want to forgive irritations/ go an extra mile/ be patient/ be kind when the recipient doesnt deserve it (in our eyes)...or in other words, WE LOVE!

probably many would go thru their personal diaries after reading your post..

@Pooja..loved you reply..i agree to your take on love in aarange marraiges,,you surely voiced my opinion here...

@Nisha..loved your reply too..we aurely make some decision everyday..We love in soem way or another..

loved this thought of yours..I for one believe that love is more than just a "feeling"...It's a decision and a choice

What is Love ...offcourse I am not talking about the love b/w Parents and Children, Siblings etc...

Love can be something that is felt but unspoken...there are many a times you come across someone with whom you would love to talk, fight, crib, laugh , share all your secrets and innermost feelings...it could happen with anyone...your friend, your colleague and even ur husband for that matter...

the kind of Love we get to see in films and serials and Navya included is something we always feel like drooling over and dreaming about...I read someone here telling its her real life story...lucky her...but I always felt its like a fairytale...

I keep falling in love always as nuttycleo said and keep gushing over that person...but its mostly a film or serial character...my husband too keeps thinking and knows how mad I am...and yes love in arranged marriages is 100% possible...and its more the respect and understanding and adjustments we make that takes the meaning of love later on in life...

I always thought that its always better not fall in love and then separate and get married to someone else and try to lead a normal life. instead get married and then anyway you fall in love eventually!! Which is true most of the time. this is my feeling!!

this is what I have done. but now when I see serials like Navya sometimes I feel have I missed anything in life! i even discuss this with my hubby[especialy after Navya] and even he says I am mad!

May be... if the lover is someone like anant then why not but is it possible in real life i do not know...

I always ponder over this thats why I liked somebody had posted yesterday "agar pyar ho tho ananth jaise pyaar karne wala ho..."

adjustments and compromises are always there in both life!!

I am always on the "love and lose a million times is better than not to have loved at all" gang. I have loved and lost (in the romantic sense) and I don't regret falling in love inspite of the sad outcome. We know that Anya will end up together, so whatever the obstacles on their way, at least they will be together. Real life is not so easy, na... we don't know what the outcome is going to be when we fall in love with someone.

Falling in love is a beautiful experience, whether it is in an arranged marriage set up or the boy-meets-girl way - in some cases it is clear-cut and straight-forward, sometimes really complicated (and unacceptable socially), but whatever it is, it is a feeling that cannot be helped. I would definitely think that someone who has not experienced this has missed something (in my opinion).
