Loved this… True love (the buddhisty kind) is easily shared, infatuation is the kind people usually like to keep secret, lest it dissolve into thin air. Amiright? I agree with your chemical reaction thingy in the above comments when it comes to “secret” love, but interesting to think that it applies also to true love (compassion/understanding/empathy) and not just lust; yes fascinating idea indeed, never occurred to me. Though when I think about it, it’s true I also feel true love physically, just differently. Like with different chakras maybe.
Anyway… I like your conversations and your poetry. π
I know right? What were the chances of this combo. As for good news, that was it for the day dude! and I think it was pretty generous too! πππ
Oh I guess most of us would have experienced it.. I remember I had one secret love π Never had the guts to say it and to be honest, I am glad I did not π
Lol! Have you heard the song β pehla pehla pyaar hai, pehli pehli baar haiβ this song use to play in my mind whenever I saw him πππ I was so naive that when I shook his hand for the first time I literally preserved my hand that touched his handsπππππ hahahahaha LMAO ππ
The secrecy of what happens between two lovers, the stories only they know, the feelings only they have for each other and moments only they too have shared together. Love is a beautiful thing and the secrecy of it even more so. Love this. ππ
I remember I had an image of you that you’re very blunt. I don’t know why I felt that though you were always easy to interact.
May be because of your Word press icon!
But after I read one of your award post which said you’re a blabbermouth, I knew okay you too are like other’s calm and composite and not what I thought.
My WordPress icon? What was it? Iβm pretty sure I had my picture on.
I am blunt and rude, no doubt about it but it depends.
Iβm actually scared of talking to you.
Haha! Now thats a news to me.
Scared of me, why is that so?
Rather I’ll tell you I don’t interact to man In real life. I keep myself away but I wonder how easy I am with some of you here. I mean you know who’ll I am talking about.
I donβt know, Iβm just scared. Iβm usually really careful when I talk to women and you, youβre something else. I donβt know why, I get reclusive vibes.
They tell me βstay away from this oneβ
Bharath it’s been 23 years and a few months and all that I’ve heard about me from people is that I am way too sweet.
Now before your thought disturbs my peace or before I ask my bff Anushka to make you spill the beans you yourself tell me why you find me scary .
You’re my go to person after what happened.
As you knew already what I was not accepting.
You the philosopher are one of my favorites. And yes I don’t flatter. I say what I mean.
I have been very strong with my gut instincts and I do follow them always. But this time I was unwilling to accept things.
Remember we even had a conversation and you said everything is an illusion, I said you for time being let me be in that illusion only as it is offering me comfort.
Yeah I remember the conversation. I know itβs hard to accept things when they turn sour. Love is a wretched thing, Rashmi.
I donβt know how to put it but in the end itβs you whoβs gonna make the choice.
But it’s all so beautiful in the beginning.
And it’s not always ending bad, it’s hard to accept when circumstances force separation.
If partner cheats may be it’s easy to move on hating him but when partner chooses understanding and it’s a mutual thing, it’s hard to accept.
Arey Sachi. You shouldnβt be serious about issues of the heart (poetic/philosophical wala). When I realised nothing matters, it was easy for me.
People are strange, Rashmi. They forget things; like they didnβt exist at all.
Both are the same. Chemical releases in the brain. We just use fancy words to describe how we feel depending on how long they last but if weβre being honest about it, you know thereβs not much of a difference.
Adrenaline, seratonin, dopamine, oxytocin, these chemicals are always released whenever I see something that stimulate my brain. Thatβs love. I can feel it.
Yes it’s due to chemicals…. But I can’t feel them releasing na…. Like when I get stressed I don’t feel like doing anything or talking to anyone….. So that’s how I get to know that I am taking too much stress π
No. I don’t know what love really is. It is the most complex things i have ever known of.
I do love my mom but neither i experience any hormomal releases nor it is unconditional. But i say i love her!
Love are of different kinds ,is it? The way you love your sister and the way you love *her* can’t be same!!?
Is love merely a play of hormones or there is more to it, i dunno.π€π
Hahah! I love how you expressed how complicated love can be. I really think itβs hormonal and sometimes we even call taking responsibility as love.
Itβs just a fancy word to me.
Exactly! Love is more like a fancy word, which is made to have strange and weird meaning in those surprisingly romantic movies!!
And people fall for it like a fly for the spider!!π
Romantic movies are shit. They sell unreal stories whereas in reality 90% of love stories fail. We still watch those because they make us feel what we never can in real life. Maybe people imagine themselves in those movies I donβt know. π but I enjoy romantic comedies. They make us laugh at least.
Fly, mosquito, what does it matter? Theyβre all insects.
Yeah. Rom-coms are fun! Do you watch bollywood movies??
Well, i too sometimes kinda thought what it would be like had i been in her place!π
But indeed they can make you feel sucking amd fantasizing at the same time!! π¬π
Yes I do watch Bollywood movies but Iβm very picky. I hate masala films. Haha! There you go! I could never connect to those movies. Never saw myself in their shoes. π
