Mind-Twisting
July 9, 2010
“Love…” she drawled.
“That’s it! I am in love.” She exclaimed.
I rolled my eyes at her. “Sure. You are in love.” I said sarcastically.
“Do not be so negative. You say you know what love is, but you don’t. So do not judge me!” she snapped.
I stared at her wide eyed.
I am a romance-junkie. I never had a boyfriend, I never had a serious crush, and I have never been in love. I have read all the novels, watched all the movies, but I have no clue what love is…or was. I know so many opinions of love, but which one is true? In one novel, love is young but ever-lasting, in another; love is a bond that takes many years to forge. Well, which novel is right? I have been so engrossed in other people’s love lives, that I lost my many chances of experiencing my own type of love. I have lost my chance of love, now the scariest four letter word in my world is:
LIKE.

I like the way you wrote this! It's nice, but in a sad way.
BTW: you'll know when you're in love! No need to worry now.

Don't you just HATE that? I mean especially with video games lol! It's like every one BUT ME. Has it!!!!.Wait what sesons r u all on? The fourth??? Yeah time diff. Plus here it was on ABC they replaced it with another show D: I wish I had high speed but my Mom is like "NO, I REFUSE to give in to the monoply of Comcast" That's all thats avalible in the country where I live. So oh well maybe I could buy them on Amazon. Would you recomend them being good enof to do that?
they discontinued it? i didnt even know! i didnt know because i live half way accross the world, and over here we get the tv shows and tv movies really late like if a movie came out on the tv in the US, then we wouldnt have it on the tv till like 2-4 months later!! so i guess thats the same situation here!

Wow, I really like that idea. Cool. Kinda stinks it would be supper rare though. But thats why it would be worth value right? Life is hard, but hey atleast it is not boring. If it was easy I doubt things worth fighting for (like love) would even exist. I like that your idea and ur artical r the same in a way. You didn't just say all that stuff to say it it was really is really how you feel about it.. I don't think anyone knows.
i was thinking about love, and what it is, or was, one day.
and all i cold think of was nicolas sparks, stephenie meyer, and many other famous writer's books.
i have forgotten all about love, because of these new, mind-twisting books!
