I last fell in love... well, truly, deeply, I fell in love about eight years ago. I was truly, deeply, swept off my feet, besotted, wanting to spend the rest of my life with him, my life wasn't worth living without him in love.

I've fallen in love a few times. To varying degrees. I've been engaged twice, but never actually married. I have 'kind of ended up in' a few relationships, grown to love guys who've loved me.

But truly, madly, deeply? Probably once. I thought I loved someone else in that way. But I think I loved who I thought he was, but he turned out to be not the person I thought he was.

I've reached a point in my life that although I've collected some baggage along the way, it isn't weighing me down, I'm ready for another relationship, I'm open to it, and I want to love and be loved.

I've fallen in love five times... three of those times to the same woman... (as in i fell in love with her, those feelings dissipated, then fell in love again, and repeat a third time...)

May or July last year. I don't think I'll ever feel the same way about anyone else.

I understand unconditional love and then lust, but have trouble identifying the two with being in love.

My past experience of "love" was a nightmare, so if that's what falling in love is....I don't think I missed out on that much.

A girl worth loving only comes around every 5 years or so.

Have never been loved back... The only one that said she loved me was a liar.

Once and I've been in love with the same person since I was 12, I know it's very young but love has no age limit to me. Words cannot describe how I feel for him. what makes it better is we're already the closest of friends.

You're still young, and you've not had any distance. Proximity makes these things harder, but you will move on, and you will fall in love again.

I get obsessed with people all the time, but really and truly in love, at most three times in my life.

Wow! Thank you for that ref. Just been looking it up, in Wikipedia, at:

Very interesting.

I've just recently fallen in love for the first time ever. At first I wasn't sure what those strange feeling were but now I'm actually quite sure it's very deep affection or so called "love".
