Only Fools Rush in
Love the words I love you.
What is Love? Four letters worth lots of trouble is what it is.
We are all afraid of this word now. Nobody wants to jump in to this love thing. So many people get divorced now because of the misuse of the words I love you.
Once there was a time when you could say it to anybody. The words I love you were as free as water. Especially in the 60’s Peace and Love, maybe those were the days when we could say that to anyone. This is not a time to say those words to just about anyone, unless of course is real. There is nothing wrong with the words “I like you” or “I appreciate you.” Why most we use “I love you” right away knowing that once we’ve said that we form a bond a tie between the person that we “love” and ourselves and then when we least expect it “I love you” turn against you in a form of “I thought you said you loved me”. If you do not mean it sincerely when you said it that is what you will hear when the times is right. As right before your loved one ask you for more than your willing to give. A commitment as marriage can be.
There are so many people afraid of love these days. That is because we tend to tell other people how much we love them without even knowing them.
What happened to getting to know one another for a while? What ever happened to dates and things people did to get to know each other.
Now and days people meet each other one week and two weeks later they are living together and one month later they are expecting a child.
That is not love when people claim to fall in love UN expectedly. That is not love. That is rushing in to disaster and in to a life of forever doubts. A lifetime of asking your self what if we would have taken things slow or what if this person was not the one.
What happens to most people that claim to love too fast is very disappointing; I am not going to say that love does not exist. It does but love is something that takes time. Forever is a long time and Love is build on that.

i feel exactly the same as you about love. only when love is true then you should say to the other person, “i love you.” brilliant writing!
