So sprung

---

Slang for "I'm completely in love and totally head over heels"You know you're sprung. When you think about the guy 24/7. It's like.... when he texts you and your heart is like "oh my gosh it's him!". That stupid ring you used to hate so much because it interrupted what you were doing. Now you're like... waiting for it to ring lol. Or when his voice makes you want to melt into a puddle of hot chocolate fudge. Or makes you speak Portuguese even though you HATE speaking Portuguese. Or makes you smile when you're getting yelled at by your parents. When you're actually ok with taking your moody dalmatian out for a walk in the freezing cold at 3am in the morning. When you can stay up till 2am washing the dishes as long as he's on the phone with you. When you can't hear a word your teacher says when she blacks out on you for no reason. The fact that he actually takes the effort to stay awake to talk to you even in your most depressing moments. When you feel you can tell him anything and everything and he can analize your problem so it makes sense. When you giggle like a little school girl when he calls you "baby girl" or "boo". Yes, that's MY BOO! lol Or when you can talk to him until you fall asleep and then even in your dreams you're still thinking about him. When you can say "I love you" and actually mean it. Like... your heart feels like it's.... raining.... gum drops lol when you say I love you. And especially when he says it back. Talking to him is like.... biting into a rich chocolate brownie just like mama used to make them. It's so crazy... I'm so happy... I know I'm sprung lolSo serious though... I'm madly in love with him. Like... I don't think I've ever felt this way before. And he's actually smart. Like he uses his brain. And he's so real. Not a fake wannabe. His age might be a problem for most people but... I'll be 18 in April so I just felt the need to express my joy lol I missed you guys.

Sounds like infatuation to me. I've always though love was more of a deeper connection of trust, respect and caring, so much so that their pain and joy becomes your own. It's not as intense, but far more comforting. I can't really explain it. I'm not saying what you're feeling is a bad thing, but I don't believe it's love, although it may very well develop into it.Good luck.

Oh trust you have no idea. I gave this guy the hardest time of his life. Not intentionally but for a while I've had this hard, stone, cold wall up and I don't know how he tore it down. And I don't know how he stuck it out. I didn't trust him, in fact I didn't like him. We used to argue.... alot. Well we still do but... it's different. And he ultimately is one of the most respecting and caring males I've ever come across. As someone who always has an attitude regarding those kind of situations, I find that rare. But he's no joke. I'm not saying I'm a cold person. But with the things I've had to deal in my life I'm not one to just blatantly tell people when it's really personal and has such an effect on me. It took me a while to actually say, "I love you". I think people throw that phrase around too much. Most people don't even know what that is. But the fact that someone is willing to risk his own life for the sake of mine? That just says alot for me. I only felt like expressing how I was feeling at the moment... not necessarily the whole relationship lol

How nice. I'm very happy for you!

Gracias :grin:

It's been a while since I've been this happy

I didn't use the love word with my girlfriend for at least a year, and even then I said it mainly to make her feel better. I now know I do.I've got friends who'll throw the love word out after 2 weeks of seeing someone, or talk about how much they loved an ex of 3 months. It just bothers me that many people disrespect what real love is, and it makes it hard to explain to them how you really, truly feel about someone when they claim they too have felt it in their very short term relationship.Anyway, maybe I'm wrong. I've only been in love once and it came gradually through a long relationship, I've never experienced it any other way.

Yeah I agree. I knew this guy for a while... years... Way before we started a relationship. And really I didn't like him at all. We always had opposite views. He used to get on my last nerves. I guess it wasn't until we had a 3 hour fallout over some topic and finally came to a conclusion that we started to at least "tolerate" each other. A while of just talking as friends and just friends as that was all it was meant to be. It's so weird. Last person on earth I'd ever thought I'd be with. Quote:Nice to see you back!It's great to see you in a happy mood once again Thanks. It's great for me to see myself in a happy mood again too lol

Glad to hear your happy.Love comes with time though.. doesnt sound like love to me.. sound like infatuation... be careful! You're a good girl.. take things slow.

That sounds wonderful Abi. You deserve to have something nice happen. It's good to see you back here.

That's great Abi.

Thanks but I know what love is. With the crap I've gone through the past few weeks with my dad and my brothers... I think I know what it is by now and what it feels like.

But thanks again

hmm. I thought so too when I was your age.Just letting you know to be careful.I felt EVERYTHING you felt. Now I realize is wasnt really love.. I just liked the idea of it.

what about poor bobbo over in the emerald isle?and the fact tha all the girls I was with whenI was 17 right through 30 I hate and detest and hope to never see again?

I hate the fact that people think being a certain age determines whether you're in love or not. I'm too young so obviously I don't know. Honestly, with what I've deal with the past few weeks, you have no idea. Quote:what about poor bobbo over in the emerald isle?and the fact tha all the girls I was with whenI was 17 right through 30 I hate and detest and hope to never see again?bob cheated on me lol and he got tired of me sooo...and you chance.. thankfully you ended up with a great woman. the others might have been a mistake

Whether it's love or not ... who cares? why try to put a label on something that is obviously bringing you so much happiness anyway?! it's just a label!!! Enjoy the ride and don't lose yourself glad you are feeling so happy

I didn't cheat on you, a time just came that I realised that you didn't really want me... sniffle
