this article page no How do you know if
youve ever been in love? Most people would argue that although being in love
with someone is non-tangible there is absolutely no doubt in their mind of it
existing. In fact if you are questioning whether or not you are in love then
you are most certainly not. While I do not doubt for a second the existence of
being in love (albeit being one of those sad individuals yet to experience it)
I am somewhat perplexed over our perception of what constitutes humanities most
sought after experience. For me falling in love with someone is a decision made
based on the successful matching of ones own predetermined criteria or
preferences. I fondly refer to the preliminary stage of partner selection as
the terminator glasses phase since it filters through a potential mates
attributes and matches them off against our own unique preferences. On the New
Years Eve just passed I went to meet friends at a bar where we would be
celebrating the evening. There waiting at the door with my friend I saw HIM for
the first time. I did a quick terminator scan Height Around 6 foot. MATCH. Build Not too skinny
not too fat not too buff. MATCH. Hair Short dark brown. Not over the top alla
David Beckham. MATCH. Complexion Dark olive. MATCH. Lips Plump. MATCH. Smile Oh
my God. MATCH. Eyes Big brown expressive with long thick lashes. MATCH! Stance
Gentle not cocky. MATCH. Nationality Clearly foreign probably Brazilian. MATCH.
With the terminator glasses still firmly planted on my face the confirmed
Brazilian was permitted to move onto the second part of phase one interaction.
This is often the most fatal part of any potential relationship since every
sentence uttered every look given and every movement is put through the filter
of the terminator glasses. Any miss-match could lead to premature relationship
death. Very little is forgiven during this part especially if ones program is
set at long term mate. In saying this it is also my favorite part of the
process as it is the most fun. I see it as a game we both know were playing but
refuse to acknowledge as existing. One can withdraw from the game at anytime
without repercussion (that is of course when both parties are working under the
same set of rules. If this is not the case a few unwanted phone numbers are
collected followed by a few awkward conversations. And depending on how weak
one is - unwanted dates followed by unwanted kisses possibly ending in unwanted
sex!). Stage two the rose coloured glasses phase is extremely dangerous and not
usually approached with caution by either candidate. Depending on the impact of
stage one bombs warning relationship doom could be dropped right in front of
ones eyes yet getting let go un-noticed. Everything appears and is invariably
utterly workable. Despite my cynicism this stage is defiantly more exciting
than the terminator phase albeit being laced with the fear of it all ending.
The premature I love you could escape ones mouth falling like a ball onto a
roulette table. The stakes are high but it could also very well pay off and
pass you onto stage three. Or not… Declaring the title of stage three is
difficult. And the truth is I dont know what to call it because Im usually
making my way to the green exit sign above the fire escape before you can say
marry me. My experience with stage three is that I usually realize Mr Perfect
is human. I resist accepting him just the way he is and try to point out where
he is lacking (he is usually not so open to my constructive criticism. I wonder
why?). This of course does not lead him to change his ways but firmly ground
himself in them (and resent me in the process). Love and commitment gets
swapped with fear and dependence. Some stay to battle it out to the very end
most head straight for the green exit light. People claim at this point that
they have fallen out of love. My argument is that they were never in love in
the first place. One of my favourite movies Moulin Rouge melodically states
“The greatest thing you will ever learn is just to love and be loved in
return. I believe this is what we think
being in love is all about. Yet being
loved in return implies that there is a condition to your giving love. So romantic love is conditional love. If
romantic love only goes one-way it is termed unrequited love or even desperate.
What if I said that true love can only be unconditional? And inside of that true love can only mean
100% acceptance of the subject just the way they are and just the way theyre
not. What if love real love is just loving? banking
