[Dating Papers]

Jackass talks about past relationships:

I’ve experienced different stages. I remember when I first started dating, I had my fair share of intimate dates and random surprises. The butterflies in the tummy, the cheap thrill, the teasing and exchanging sweet nothings.

Sometimes, people mix romance with love, they assume that when the romance dies out, they’re no longer in love and therefore breakup, but isn’t it deeper than that? Love isn’t just about whirlwind courtship and constant surprises, it’s about building the foundations of what will become a lifelong partnership, constituting trust, honesty and an equal amount of contribution on both sides. Loving doesn’t mean always having butterflies in the tummy on dates…. it’s a form of trust, a sacrificial spirit.

love - it requires time. You don’t love a person after knowing him/her for a month. You can’t. Love is much deeper than that. You can’t understand a person fully after thirty days. And, if you don’t know the person, how can you then say you love him? It’s an infatuation.

I understand her feelings about love and romance - although the romance is exciting, it is the deeper love that is the most satisfying. However, I still thinks it’s possible to fall in love at first sight, even if we don’t always understand why…..
