The 5 love languages

I decided to join in on this particular Tumblr blog-a-day prompt.

I was not surprised by my results. The early part of my relationship with D taught me a lot about how I love and how I want to be loved in return. I am very much a verbal person. Of course I want you to show me, both physically and through actions, but you have to tell me too. That’s non-negotiable. I need to hear it.

If you want to take the test, you can find it here. I had D take it too.

TL;DR: touch me and tell me I’m pretty.

How do you know when you’re in love?

I’ve only been in love twice, and it was different both times.

The first time was a gradual build up. I’m not even sure when or how I knew for sure, I just did. Our lives just became more and more entwined, until life just didn’t make sense without him in it.

This last time felt completely different. People talk about falling in love, and that’s what it felt like: falling. I remember that very early on, D sent me a song to describe how he was feeling, and it perfectly described my own feelings as well.

SHOVE – Angels & Airwaves

Forget the things that you own
And travel almost anywhere you can go
Dance across the tree tips, set them ablaze
Soaking in their pleasant warm summer haze
And weeping on her streets and school city blocks
And finding streams on her while you’re skipping rocks
And feeding on her touch as it will barely keep you alive

She said show me the world that’s inside your head,
Show me the world that you see yourself, you could use some help
Cause sometimes it comes with a shove, when you fall in love

It can be so bold and so cavalier
To reach out to the fire her souls sending here
It can be like death that blows like a breeze
Making all ones strength go weak at the knees
I hate to feel the shallow ground giving way
I’ve never let myself fall this much astray
And feeding on her touch is all one does to survive

She said show me the world that’s inside your head,
Show me the world that you see yourself, you could use some help
Cause sometimes it comes with a shove, when you fall in love

If you’re ever alone, then your heart will know
It can call to mine, and I’ll be at your side
If you’re ever alone, then your heart will know
It can reach to mine, I’ll be at your side

being in love feels so intense sometimes

My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry,
which ever you prefer.

I love him so much it literally hurts sometimes. It’s also scary because he could absolutely shatter me. I’ve given him my heart in a way I haven’t given it before. This is a level of trust that is unheard of for me. It has lead to the highest highs and the lowest lows. I wouldn’t want it any other way though.

I love you, David. So very much.
