But here we are talking about being in love, the girl I was completely in love with I fell for a longggg time before we got together, we never really realised what it was, we just had a mutual care for eachother to start with which became quite developed when we both helped eachother through very hard situations. I had quite a dramatic break up in July 2008 and this girl was there for me then, I was an absolute mess but she'd text me every day asking me how I was etc, just being a good friend, then we fell for eachother in the "lust" sort of way, she was always an attractive girl but Id been with my girlfriend for over a year :P but after she helped me through that we became very attracted to eachother and one thing led to another, we were only together 5 months when in the end we both made silly mistakes.
One of my strongest beliefs about love is that you never truly fall out of it, this particular girl ended up turning her back on me for a few months and it absolutely killed me. It did us good though because we had started arguing a lot and stuff and forgotten about our feelings really. Some of the stuff she did was pretty harsh and all my friends hate the fact I talk to her again, but I'd still do pretty much anything for that girl & she'd still do pretty much anything for me, if we can get through what happened (which I won't divulge) and still care for eachother after it as much as we cared going into it (just without all the other feelings a relationship requires), I think that one could say we were in love at our peak.
