When I was 19 and ready to leave for the Army, my brother, cousin and a few friends took off in two cars to celebrate, we had a few six packs hidden in the cars and were looking for a place to drink. We drove around a corner and there was a police car suddenly in the middle of the road, he turned his lights on and made us stop. He went to the first car which my brother was driving and I was sweating in the second car, he then came to me and asked what we were doing here and I said “my girlfriend lives in this development” he said, “that’s funny, your twin said the same thing, get out, all of you!”
There we all stood, scared as hell and the officer said “ok twins, you must have old girlfriends because this is an old peoples home, so what are you really doing here, give me the alcohol you have in the cars” I was then petrified and pulled the beer out and asked how he knew, he simply said “I didn’t”. So you see, I can’t lie to save my life and I can’t pretend to feel something I don’t.
In love it is the same…there is this feeling one get’s, the feeling that many fear but want the most, the one feeling that everyone wants but somehow few actually grasp for more than a short period…you know, like the feeling during your first intimate encounter, the shortness of breath, the head full of one thing…(no not that, we’re not that far yet!) just being with that one person.
When possible you spend every moment together knowing you may be overdoing it and risking a quick burn out, if you cannot be with them you think “ok, this is good, no burn out, no overdose” but then you go nuts because your emotions are grasping for something to hold on to and start telling you things like; “this is it” or “maybe marriage” and your logic is like “dude! You just met, relax!”
In the end it all boils down to honesty for me, I may over do it, may say to much, think to much or show to much but in those moments they are my honest feelings and I will be damned if I hide them…
I always was a risk taker, I love to love, love to give, and be loved! Isn’t that what life is somehow all about…so there you go Ms. Love bring it on!
All a wonderful weekend!
Your Steven
