Love is incorrigible. Excruciating agony and limitless sweetness simultaneously. As long as I am alive, I can never resist it. Thus: doomed to suffer AND destined to be happy
It shakes you to the core when it happens. Shattering your body/mind/heart/soul by its force. You lie there helpless, exhausted. But Smiling. ...And I am not talking about sex. Sex can be a part of it, sure. As one of the expressions. But it is not necessary. Now a days people are fond of explaining tsunamic emotions of love by using neuro-biological terms like Adrenaline, dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin. I suppose it gives them a sense of control. A false sense I must say for no amount of rational and scientific thinking can help you get back in the driving seat again. When love is driving, the only thing you can do is: sit back, relax and enjoy. The anatomical part it affects the most is - well, the heart! There is a reason why those cheesy red throbbing hearts you see on the Valentines' day are so popular.
You create your own heaven or hell with these emotions. Eat some chocolates, get some sunshine and tread that exercise machine if it gets too overwhelming. If you try to resist the feeling or try to control the object of your love, you are walking down the path to hell. I am not kidding. So, don't. Carefully avoid those habitual mistakes. I have a lot to say here, saving it for some other time.
Are you one of those hopeless romantics constantly falling and failing in love?
I am.
And I am at it again.
