Metaphorically speaking We’ve gone down the rabbit hole So deep the light is barely visible, but still so far we could fall I’m ready to crawl my way out now I’m done with this feeling, I think But I refuse to leave you down here alone You’re coming with me, and I’ll drag you out by your hair kicking and screaming if that’s what it takes.
Love Is Underrated.
The words "I love you" are far too underrated these days. Mostly by teenagers and younger, but also I think by adults who are "looking" for love because they feel like they're "running out of time". The phrase "I love you" should never used during the infatuation stage in a relationship. I think too many people these days get that confused with truely, purely loving someone. Sure, its all great when you meet someone at first & maybe you've been w/ them for about a month or two and they just make you feel perfect, like you're worth it, like you're the only person on their mind and vice versa. That's great, but thats how its supposed to be in the beginning of most relationships. Think about it.. you barely know the person for real. I mean, sure you know their birthday and what their favorite place to go to dinner is, and their middle name and all that nonsense.. but its more than that. To me, love takes time, and Im not talking weeks, sometimes not even months really. For real love to happen, I don't think its about necessarily how long you've been with that person or how easily you get along, or even how much fun you have together, its much deeper than those surface feelings because you can spend so much time with one person and know all about them & still consider them just a friend. For love, its about going the extra mile. In my opinion, you love someone after you've gone through hardships w/ them and still come out feeling like they're the only person you wanna be with and share your problems and achievements with.. that takes time. You have to experience change and challenges and excitement, and fear, and doubt and all these different emotions with that person and somehow, after you've made it through all of it together, you have to realize that they're the only person you ever wanna have to share those things with for it to be truly a matter of love.
..i guess what i'm trying to say is, love isn't easy to find. It doesn't happen as often as people make it seem. Hence, its extremely underrated... People confuse it for temporary blissful feelings & emotions but real love is permanent.
...but that's just from my perspective.
