Deeper Feelings

Two people meet. Perhaps they are young and start out as childhood friends or meet each other while going to school together. Perhaps it’s later in life when they are a little more mature. Regardless of when they begin interaction the relationship will change dramatically over time. It is a remarkable process. I love to analyze relationships simply because they change so much. When you first meet someone you most likely have your guard lifted greatly while you get to know that person and slowly let them in to your life. The more you do this the more you change and the emotions on both sides begin to change. The one thing that truly amazes me the most about opposite sex relationships is the way we connect to one another and can somehow begin to read the other person as if they are a part of us. It is truly exceptional that our brains can adapt this greatly to people.

As relationships progress the emotions that are shared make us more willing to share more and more about ourselves and the life we lead which in turn makes us even more attractive to the other person as they relatedly dig deeper into our soul to get even closer to us. The same can hold true for what we are individually thinking and doing to get even closer to the other person. When we’ve achieved that point when nothing can drive us apart and we feel that we know each other as no one else can is when love truly develops. There is no defined time frame when this can happen. Keep in mind that there are still people out there who believe in love at first sight. I must admit that I do not but that’s just me. How can it be possible to know you love someone without even trying to get to know them inside and out? Anyways, I’m getting off my track. Love can be so complicated in the way that ultimately we don’t consciously control our feelings, they just happen.

For some people it is difficult to believe that they can fall for someone so easily and they will fight it. This is usually when relationships take a different turn as one or the other may have doubts about the others feelings or even cheat because they’re looking for something more or different. The craziest thing to believe is that couples who have been together for many, many years can fall victim to infedelity and for so many various reasons. The debate still exists whether relationships can survive and overcome infedelity but the truth is that each situation is uniquely different and has to be handled as such.

Think about how many serious relationships you’ve been in throughout your life. How many were good? How many were bad? How many seemed good then went bad? How many do you wish you had never had? The questions are infinite because everything happens for a reason. I know that sounds like a cliche but honestly we are either meant to find true love or we aren’t and thats just how it is.
