Love Is Friendship Set On Fire

Okay I still haven't eaten because Bill, the boss, just
went to lunch so I have to wait until he gets back.
Errrgg...but anywho, I'm bored so I'm going to do another
entry. I was watching Pretty Woman the other night. It's
the ultimate Julia Roberts movie along with My Best
Friend's Wedding and Steel Magnolias :o( It got me thinking
about love though. And I was imagining what my ideal love
would be. I couldn't see myself just falling for someone I
meet at a bar or just randomly on the street or at a store
though. It just seems a little too unrealistic to me. I
think we fall in love with our friends. Unfortunately for
me most of my friends are women. If I was straight then I'd
be in heaven but oh well. Anywho, I think with friends the
trust and respect is already there so then you can just
take it to the next level which would be love. So, I think
love is just an extension of friendship. Some of these
couples I see can't stand being around there
boyfriends/girlfriends and I don't know why. They don't
want to hangout with them or really do much with them
besides have sex and cuddle from time to time. I'm no
expert on the love thing but I don't see how a relationship
like that would last. There are a lot of people who have
been in relationships for years but aren't happy. Why even
be in one then if you aren't happy? Isn't that the point of
being in love? To have that rush of emotions and joy for
life knowing that you love this person and in turn they
love you too? I just don't understand but then from a
psychological stand point other factors do come in to play.
Fear of being alone and being on your own. Fear that no one
else will want you or you won't be able to find someone
else. Basically just fear. Hmmm...I don't know I think when
I do find that guy who just does it for me I'm going to
hold on for dear life and just enjoy it. Enjoy being in
love. I've heard that people...humanity as a species...even
disregarding cross culturalism...just become bored and
monotony plays a big factor in break ups and whatnot. We
just get tired of the same thing...rolling over and having
the same person in our bed. Not in a whore type way like we
need to sleep with someone different all the time but then
again maybe. Relationships start out all firey and full of
life and then they tend to die out. Okay now I'm just going
on and on and I was originally talking about friendship and
love. Anywho, I think your
husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend beyond just being your
lover also has to be your friend. Okay I think I'm going to
go eat now. Later.
