Are You In Love?
Has the cupid stuck you with his love arrows? Sometimes the person we love is right in front of us but we don’t recognize him or her because either we are too busy with other things in our lives or are too dumb to even ignore the slightest indications of the presence of love in our lives. Here are a few questions, the positive answers to which will help you in deciding whether you have stepped in the L.O.V.E. world or not. So leave everything aside and just read the following signs of falling in love and yourself decide whether love has entered your life or not.
Let the countdown begin.....

And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,
"Nothing, I just helped him cry"
Karin, if you really are in love, even the imperfections you will learn to accept because each of us got our own imperfections too.
King, when both of you snore then it still is perfect 'cause you'll be doing a duet concerto at night. It's like Pavaroti and Celine Dion.... LOL!
I never fell inlove with nobody, I don't think i ever will...
too bad...
it's just our culture prevents it..probably it's a positive thing..
who knows...
I don't think that you are a picky person, you did not meet the right person for you yet. That is all :) , you are such a nice person and deserves the best.
Treysdad ... that is a tricky one, the question is .. can you both live with the fact that both of you are snoring? :)
right Owen, 0/13
i think im very picky person :-(
Treysdad: since i cant sleep beside someone who snores does it mean i have zero or minus chance?lol

"It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone -- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone." and that is...... LOVE
i did thought of ONE person that best describes the above. gosh how it is to be in love! ugh owen you really beat it all when one has to reminiscence while on the job doin' nothin' . gad i miss those moments.. wishing. wish.. sigh.
how about this added to your list: mahal ko sya, mahal ka nya, mahal nya ay iba? (i love him, he loves you, but she loves someone else)?
when i was a wee lass i broke up with a guy that said he didn't believe in love.
Odd thing is that after we broke up he cried and converted (a little late, sad to say) ...to become someone who now believes in love.
its when love hurts that we notice its existence.

c.s. lewis had a really cool quote about love...trying to remember it...must look it up...
so quick, how are you doing these days? Still upset and bored for being here in Qatar? :) ... I don't have Cash or Credit Card miss. I said .. 500 QL Points, .. will see how can Qatari give you those .. gotta ask him, .. otherwise gotta pay you the 500 out of my Aramex Master Card, .. online shipment :)
why are you so jumpy with your explanation there eih? :D
Gypsy :D
Is that going to be cash or credit card sir ? :P
I mixed up everything here, talking to Owen then jumping to talk about a friend's trip .. all i can say is .. she is leaving on Friday .. run to QL posts and try to figure out who is she ... the first one to get her name would earn 500 QL Points, ..
I think he was talking to owen.
And I totally agree about love being a sweet misery. Because love makes u smile even when ur going through pain. Amazing.
who's going on vacation?
everyone and how is everything? Hope that you are having fun, sorry Owen for hijacking your thread. Busy shifting to a new house [not really], it is really a big trouble and maybe would take like 2 weeks with this issue. Hope that you would be enjoying your vacation, leaving so soon I guess ;)
Love is a sweet misery ...
his heart is full of nicotine & caffeine, and seems toooo many girls inside, not good duh!:D
i love your heart..:D..what to do yani, they love love..lol
....................
its all good...im sure there will be a lot of other times ;-P
sad u missed out on a lot of stuff after u left...
-jb-
sorry about last time at Rydges hi hello and goodbye...true as alexa it won't die sometimes u don't want to remember but NEVER TO FORGET....have a nice day!!!!
I don't think this is love, this is a crush (I have one big time at the moment so I know). Sigh. It is the best part though. :D
"I fight with love and I laugh with rage, you have to live light enough to see the humor and long enough to see some change." Ani Difranco
shav: i'll go for the killing me softly, so just shoot me thing ;-P
alexa: true, that it wont die..u just think that it will but it will resurface and u cant hide it no matter how hard u try...:-(
owen: dont worry...im not being cynical...just remembered that line from 2 weeks ago...;-P i guess i should stop listening to all this mushy music..;-P
-jb-
Girl,
Love... it knows no bounds, it transcends nationalities, its language is universal and its age...... timeless.
Jaxs, true! it's like a No return, No exchange policy by treysdad.
or Love me at your own risk
or killing me softly.
at least there should be 'return to sender, address unknown'
better yet, Just shoot me.

huh?!...jaxs, what happen to your perception of love? :)
why do we love if love will die....
-jb-
noted..:D
If you miss the melodic sound their snoring, that's love.
If every morning you look for the map of the world on their pillow created by a night long salivating, that's love.
If before going to sleep you very much like to hear the resounding noise their fart can make, that's love.
If at waking up you turn and you cherish the look of their unkempt hair and unwashed face, that's love.
(So single ladies.... think about it! har har har)
:)
really?!..glad to know that one soul (from this forum)is experiencing the above..:P errr should i say goodluck? :D
damn! that's exactly happenings to me right now!
Computers have lots of memory but no imagination.
isnt that characteristics of romantic love too??? well...divine in a different sense..lol ;-P
-jb-
Ohhhh...kinda love sl is feeling for S*****k? its soooo divine, and unconditional and a bit self-sacrificing too...lol
can i answer in behalf of IOU..agape love is a divine, unconditional, self-sacrificing, and thoughtful kind of love..:)
IOU,
What is AGAPE LOVE? Never heard anything like this.
Please lie down with me? Moulin Rouge! Red Windmill!
Cheers,
I didn't mean to steal your Thunder, I just borrowed it!

-jb-
No jaxs, i don't think so.

shav!
_____________________________________________________
"Don't judge my brother, he's not a book"---melanism
always sleepy when u cant have the person in reality...thats why you always want to dream...but i bet when ur friend is with the person, sleeping would be the last thing on his mind, i cant even think when im with the person im inlove with...lol ;-P
-jb-

Owen> may i know who is this friend of yours whose hands were amputated? :|

L - Lake of sorrow
O - Ocean of tears
V - Vally of BS
E - End of life.
Mush------Mush--------more Mush...if you cannot put up with it just Hush.
Quote "when my priorities are not my priorities anymore" Unquote, I wish that was true.....oh I wish....oh I wish.
why do i get this feeling that only few are idealist here?...
I really don’t believe in the word….. LOVE…bunch of baloney…. Sorry buddy owen
well, i guess i could say that i am really young when it comes to love, because i can relate to all of the above...lol..my god, no matter how hard i try to be cynical about it, i just cant..;-P for me,if it doesnt work out, there's always the next one to look forward to...it does get tiring but when ive about given up, someone absolutely wonderful comes along and i cant help myself ;-P
love is full of crap...
-jb-
because i like to live in reality not in fantasy.
I appreciate love and i appreciate what it can do in someone's life but doubting of its existance. may be it's just my luck

God Damn people, they destroyed the beauty of life
you blush all the time when you think of the person..:D
IOU, sanjo M...hmmmm, pwede..lol
IOU! let's have a coffee chat ASAP! Lol.
I'll pm u.
I knew when I am in-love when my priorities are not my priorities anymore, when my needs are not my needs anymore. I am not saying I becoming a totally different person but let's just say I am more sensitive about the happiness of the person!
When I was younger (it's easy) I thought I was in-love right then and then when I see a Tall-Brown-Skinned-Handsome Model-Material guy like "SANJO" but I realized it's not falling in-love its like falling in-love to the idea of falling in-love! LOL.
I like dating, knowing the person more and figure it out if we can tolerate each other personalities and individualities!
and lastly, I know I am in-love when I asked him "Would you like to have a "night cap?" and staying overnight together ;-)
As far as I know Love categorized as:
1. AGAPE LOVE
2. PLATONIC LOVE
3. ROMANTIC LOVE
I have those three!
Cheers,
I didn't mean to steal your Thunder, I just borrowed it!
lol..good morning girl..
Tango_Dancer, why i feel bitterness in you, so early in the morning..:P
I fell in love only once since then i don't believe in luv any more.
Does it really exist? i don't think so
With all my respect to ladies i didn't find someone that deserve real luv

--post deleted--
what to say, it is seldom to see you posting something here on QL. You prefer to keep quiet, participating whenever you got the chance. Opening new threads is from time to time and the gab between them is huge, but it always worth the waiting. I can always find whatever I got in mind there in your posts.
Call it telepathy or whatever, ... strange how can you read my mind, are my ideas that obvious that you can read the whole story on my face? :)
love your style girl...as you wish..:P
answer why 0/13? :D :D
as the song goes "I remember the boy but i don't remember the feelings anymore".....Kaliwali LOl
why don't you add what have you felt before..i'm pretty sure you have been inlove...:P
this is cutie,cutie, teeny, teeny, and pretty girl like shavonne nice avatar pretty girl...ME none of the above add more might i find the reason WHY?

apple's case- yes, against all odds.
But no.12 is not applicable for me. We dont have text msgs to read over & over, coz he dont sms me anymore, coz we will be like bunch of ids if we do, coz we live in the same house:P
owen> bet you gonna say that, alright, rather he's so intellectually handsome and popular in the phils. acting but not full time. He ended up being a newscaster. check out ABs CBN- mari kaimo.
like against all odds? :)
a what? a fil popular actor?..how can you miss that?...goodness..:P
dyoske (omg!), tongue tied, not knowing which button to press (elevator ha- not anything else) haaay. it's a funny feeling though.
I happened to meet someone that I didn't know at first, he is a filipino popular actor. I only found it out during the 2nd meeting, so i felt shy.
-you are willing to sacrifice anything just to be w/ him/her.
oh stop it T****..it's my topic..:P
nothing is going to happen
now plz dont hijack ur own topic VOLTA. :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]

Karin, nice idea...but the question is, will stallion show up? :P

Got A Cold heart. you saw me sittin quiet THATS ME. if get on my nerves then any body is no body.
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]

[img_assist|nid=21401|title=Adjust, Adopt & Overcome|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=135]
i think darude has a hard-as-rock heart..hmmmm, i wonder who will soften our stallion's heart..(if he has one..lol)..peace!
Have your heart broken many times? :)
owen, lol.
