puppy love., whats your definition? Options

[bebefcuk_]

"the love between a young couple within a few weeks of getting together. not really true love, more blind affection - immature, young love." i personally think thats wrong.

okay well im 13 years young and i might be in love. ive known him for about 8 months =) haha okay.. but seriously hes perfect. weve been on and off for the past 3-4 months, but its always my fault and i know it. he gets mad/hurt that i dont want to announce it to the whole world that were going out, and all that. anyways, he tells me he loves me and of course i tell him the same thing. i just get kind of pissed when people tell us stuff like "oh you guys are so cute but it wont last" or like "your too young, stop touching"..yeah the second one is funny hahha..but you know, i think its unfair the way people dont understand the way i feel. like out of all the guys ive gone out with, hes the one.

It's super hard to tell if you're in love. I thought I was in love once. Turned out I wasn't, and it WAS puppy love. That was back in sixth grade. I'm in my third year of college now, and I'm 19. I have found "the fabled "the one"". I know I have, because my heart tells me I have. Love isn't just a feeling. It's the way your heart races when they touch you, and it doesn't even have to be sexual. It can be his fingertips on your arm, or sitting next too each other and your legs brushing against each other. Love is learning to embrace every part of them, not matter their faults. It's sitting on a park bench, curled up, watching the stars and listening to their heart beat. Its the butterflies you get when you make eye contact, the way your heart skips a beat each and every time you kiss. The agony of being miles apart, even if its only ten minutes by car. The pure feelings of hurt if you even start to argue, even if you're the one who's right. It's wanting to never see them cry, and forgiving them when they make a mistake, no matter how large or small. Love is being there through thick and thin for each other, and being supportive through out everything. It's the willingness to help one another, the want to do anything, simply anything, just to see the barest of smiles on their face. It doesn't have to be a knight sweeping you off your feet. It doesn't have to be a fairy tail romance, either. But the fact that you can think about them, and that simple thought brings a smile to your face and makes your heart flutter. Love is also the giving of chances. Of course someone's going to mess up. Of course you're going to argue. It's natural. No one's perfect. Love is just taking those upsetting moments in stride and fixing them the second you have the chance. To love is to learn. You must learn the ways of your own heart before you even think about "true love". What ever those two words mean though, I know I've found mine. Everything I've said here, I've experienced. And its been the most fantastical year and almost two months of my life. Sure, we're a tad early in, but we know we'll make it. Despite what anyone may ever think or say or do or try. If, at the end of the day, you can look at him and honestly say "I love you with every part of me", then you might be getting there. Good luck. <3
