Tell me if you can think of more.
I might as well copy these but I'm going to interpret love rather than repeat it.
Combinations
As you can see, these are words but how they tie together differs from person to person.
See if you can figure out how they come together.
The following is still incomplete but gives an idea of what I'll have.
What is love?
There are different forms of love. One can have love for friends and family, or for a lover.
You can say you love but do you really mean it?
Most of this it about a fantasy love that few can ever reach.
One must trust a person to love them.
But how can they trust them? They must be loyal. This loyalty comes from friendship.
They should also be able to understand each other.
Both people have to make sacrifices and compromises.
Love of a friend
There's friendship in love and
love in a friendship. It takes a mature man to say loves his friend and a
mature friend to understand that he isn't gay. Girls can say they love each
other without these stupid sexist problems. A boy and a girl can be friends and
have friendship-love and each have lovers of their own if their lovers are true
lovers and can understand that they can be friends and yeah...
Highschool Romance
As we all know.. well, maybe not, Most highschool relationships don't last. That can be said about most but not all. This is mainly because most are based on Passion and crushes and moving on to commitment without adiquate emotional intimacy. That means people will dedicate themselves to each other mostly based on their lust for each other without really having the qualities of being friends first. If this passion fades, all that would be left is commitment and the relationship becomes empty and weakens. However if ur lucky or can develop the emotional intimacy before it comes crashing down, maybe it will survive.
