well, in this case, I have known nothing was going to happen for about 6 months now. But at the same time I've never been totally sure if I wanted anything to either. I'm not really complaining, because I haven't taken it that seriously. It just brings these questions to mind.
It's a good point about love. unconditionality is a must for true love. I've thought that before but it slipped my mind; thanks for reminding me. On the other hand, I think that true love is ultimately mutual. It might not be mutual right away, but I think given enough time, anyone who knew they were truly loved, lets say loved unconditionally, by another, would eventually come to love them back. It's like heat -- if you're in the proximity of a hot object for long enough, it will eventually start to warm you up, even if it's undetectable at first. --Only that's a bad analogy because in that situation, you wouldn't start heating up the hot object after a long time. anyway.
Telling. Yeah. It's a good thing, and I've always been a strong proponent of communication. It just makes it hard, since I'm not sure exactly what my feelings are, and I've been feeling them on and off for so long, and she's a good friend of mine, probably one of my closest friends, to begin with. What is there to say? "By the way, I really like you a lot." "no kidding, so do I" "no I mean..." "hey wanna watch a movie?" "ok"
