Love and In Love

Hello blogfam...hp you had a grt weekend...mine was great, had a fantastic pool party, so u know its the Beyonce season..this is me channeling my inner beyonce..getting all personal and stuff on this post. Okay so I was going thru Linda Ikeji's blog few days ago and I saw a post on loving someone and being in love with someone. The funniest thing is i have been thinking about the same topic for awhile now and reading the comments on that post has just compounded my fears.

People never seem to understand when I tell them that being in love is different from loving someone. I can love someone and not be in love with them....when you are in love with someone, you can practically do anything for the person..u dont even have any interest in cheating and you would go to any length to see the person happy....while you loving someone means maybe you have been with the person for awhile and then you become comfortable and feel secure with the person...

I believe if you are in love with someone...you can never get tired or bored of the person or the relationship. People will rather love someone than be in love with the person, because being in love means your guard is down and that's scary. Also I think its easier for a girl to fall in love with a boy...rather than a boy falling in love with the girl

One of the reasons why I have not found a bf is cos I have felt what it feels like to be in love with someone and now my biggest fear is that I wont find someone who would be in love with me. I actually think its a great disservice to yourself to settle in a relationship but its hard cos looking at all the relationships around me...I have found only one relationship where i can see that the boy is in love with the girl......all the other ones, the girls are the ones in love.

Anyways enuf of the story..i just hope my wish comes true and I can fall in love with someone who will also be in love with me.

So what do you guys think..do you think there's a difference between loving someone and being in love with someone ...or  do you think its just fairytale.......
