How can you tell when you are in love with someone, some people don't know the difference between love and lust, but I do, and heres how I know
When I met my baby, I had no idea that he would change my life completely, we were just 2 people in the same class. Less than a week after we started talking we were going out and less then a month later, he had broken up with me for his own reasons but we continued to remain friends. Over the next three and a half months we were off and on, getting back together and breaking up but my feelings for him always remained. We did everything together and we spent everyday together, and there was just something about him that I couldn't get enough of, he was my everything.
But a time came when things got bad and all we did was fight, everything ended on a bad note one day and I thought that was it. We basically hated each other, we couldn't even look at each other in the hallways at school. This went on for 4 months. By now anyone else would have given up but in my heart I knew he was still the one I wanted to be with, I slept with his picture under my pillow and prayed every night for him to come back to me. Everything I did and said, I only did to make people believe I was over him, to try to convince myself that it was over but it never worked, my feelings for him were too strong. I had two other boyfriends in the time period me and him were apart, but I couldn't stay with them because when I was sitting with their arms around me, I was dreaming of being with my baby.
Then one day when I least expected he showed up at my work and asked me and my friend to chill with him and one of his friends when we got off of work, we decided to go just to see what was up. It was awkward at first, me and him hadn't spoken civilaly in months but we got past it and we hung out almost everyday for the next 2 weeks. Then one night when we were out driving he asked me to park somewhere and I did. He took my hand and held it and told me he missed me and I told him I missed him too. We kissed and everything in my life suddenly seemed right. He told me he was sorry for anyway he ever treated me or anything he ever said, all I could do at that moment was hold him, no words could be spoken it was just one of those moments. Eventually I was able to look at him and say "that was then and this is now and the only similarity between the two is that I loved you then and I love you know" and he started to cry, I thought I said something wrong but he told me he loved me too, we spent that whole night together and we;re still together.
Thats how I know I'm in love, when you can hold out for that long, through all the torment, with little hope and still end up together in the end, thats love . |
