Is it normal i'm losing my faith in love?

So here's my theory, I do believe passionate, fireworks worthy, butterfly in tummy, head spinning, day dreaming love exists, BUT I'm starting to believe it can only be experienced fully by one person in the relationship is it normal to think this?

Allow me to diverge;
In my experience, the only times I've REALLY been into a guy, he's not been crazy into me.
The other times guys have been really into me and I've felt indifferent.
Are my standards too high? Do I just like it just the thrill of the chase?
Or is it normal?

    I think this can be summed up quite simply.
    We want what we can't have.

    It's an unfortunate characteristic of human nature.

    I don't think so. I have no experience but I've seen people that both seem madly in love with eachother. I do think that the love your talking about exists although not as one sided but I definitely think that two people can fall at the same time with the same momentum, to abuse the metaphor.

    Love is perfect but people are flawed,sort of like marriage,the concept of marriage is perfect but people that get married are not,no reason to loose faith in love...people ? well that is up to you.

    Reciprocal passion does exist and it feels absolutely wonderful. I hope you get to experience it someday. I must say, however, that it also feels awful when it's gone. After that if there's no true love the relationship usually ends. Hell, sometimes it ends even when there is.

    It is nearly impossible to lose 'faith' in love.

    To have 'faith', means 'to trust'. Although trusting someone that you're in love with is very important in a loving relationship; 'love', in itself, is an instinctual behaviour in humans and some other animals. Except in extremely rare circumstances, such as extreme child abandonment, love can never be lost. You can, however, find new love. One of those strange things.

    Normally, it is the 'male' who inserts (usually with the consent and assistance of the 'female') his 'penis into' the female.
    Once again, it is the penis that is normally inserted into the female's vagina, not a 'crazy'.

    How did you 'get into' the male? Wasn't that uncomfortable and / or painful?

    I think it's a game of chance. More often than not, one person will feel more strongly than the other. Or their feelings will outlast the other's.

    But I don't agree that love is only ever experienced by one person in any relationship. That just isn't true.

    love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme

  • It's very possible for 2 or more people to experience the same emotion such as love at the same time.

    However love is an emotion and emotions are nothing more than synapses firing off in your brain. They're no more real than cartoon characters.

  • How old are you? How hard have you tried?

    When I was in, oh, high school I felt bad because everyone was pairing off, getting pregnant, getting married, sometimes in the other order, and I didn't have my soul mate. I tried to make someone into my soul mate that just wasn't, and things became bad. I would have been better off not giving a shit. Even though everyone was SO in love in the moment, many of them are not still together, although their babies, and divorces are! Ha!

    Recently I've realized I'm pretty young. People do these things at lots of different ages. Some people have no interest in these things at all. So long as you get what you want at some point, does it matter?

    Most good things take time.
