I would like to know of being in love...

that feeling that he's getting
over me these days.

It must be nice
to fall head over heels
at the mere sight of a person.

Though
I'm not sure why he wants it.
A heart hurting
because (he says) I'm so beautiful
that I could have my choice of any man.

I suppose he knows
I do not know of being in love.

Dear Dixie, don't worry about knowing, just about how it feels to you, enjoy this time and the everything that comes, love is a gift that is only presented to a few of us, so accept and enjoy my friend, enjoyed the read, have a wonderful day of love.

thank you each

can't force it though if it's not there

and it's not

too bad one can be so in love and the other not be anywhere close

sad

It is sad how it works out sometimes- but it's wonderful to find love in friendship too.  Hope it works into that -- you are a very sensitive and beautiful woman.

Nice writing...to me love is caring and acceptance and appreciation and forgiveness...when you find the right person that you want to share all of these feelings with, love will fill the empty places within your heart...James

   Then make a good friend... and if, in so doing, your souls curl one around the other until the halves fit perfectly... then enjoy the fullness of being whole. If you wish... you can 'label' it Love... or something more than that. Best wishes Dixie... and most of all Peace.

"I suppose he knows
I do not know of being in love."

Well sweet poet, if he is worth his salt he will learn, and learn to understand.
Speaking from a male’s point of view… he probably understands more than he will share at first but give him time, and a whole lot of help…

Never forget that being in love is chemically no different from eating large amounts of good chocolate.

I have always thought being love sucked, but then often I have thought the only thing worse is not being in love.  

I guess I am no help to you.

thanks all

*grinning* you all make me smile

but this man could never win my affections...money is only a part of it all...there is no feeling here on my part, especially since he has such jealousy that I can't even be polite and talk to another man without him hitting a pine tree or wall and damaging his fingers and wrists...his anger is way too intense

it's done with...and we can't even have a friendship...

yeah, he's got money, but I'm not that type
