love

so let me get this straight, you want me to define love? k you asked for it.
LOVE is real. you may not think so, what with all those Disney movies and whatever, but it is. love is when you just want to spend all day together. sweat pants, hair tied, chilling with no makeup on; thats when youre the prettiest, i hope you dont take it wrong. i, for one, think ive been in love, but i know i probably havent. theres a difference between falling in love, and being in love. i often get those two confused. take Vance, i know i thought we were in love, but, in all reality, i dont think i even knew what being in love is... until i lost him. and let me tell you, that is no simple thing. love is when you put someone elses happiness above your own. you strive to make that person happy, even if it means doing something youre not very fond of. i was saying today that in my 19 years, ive only had one legit boyfriend. sure, i tell people i love them all the time, but im an easy lover who loves you as a person before i can love you as anything more. and i think im scared to love anyone for real because i dont want to go through the pain of losing them like i lost Vance... does that even make sense? sometimes, im not even sure if i will ever be able to love for serious again and that scares the crap out of me...

well Nels, i hope this covered what you hoped it would.
