I believe you can... take Benedick and Beatrice for example from Shakespeare's "much to do about nothing" play. I know that it is only fiction but it is a good example... The pair were constantly fighting but their friends knew that they should be together but they didnt. Their friends told each one of the two that the other one loved the other and they believed it and suddenly they were both madly in love with each other, but still denied it. But I think they always knew inside somewhere that they liked each other but they either never searched that deeply inside themselves or were in complete denial to listen to their consience.
Being able to have good passionate sex without catching feelings or falling in love.
Someone very bright once told me that you cannot love someone who does not love you back....it has to be something else like an addiction...I didn't believe her at first, but in time, I found out that she was right. Think about it...do you really love that person or are you intrigued because they are taken? It's also about intimacy. Those of us who don't feel comfortable being intimate often choose people who are taken. We can still have that feeling of being in love....but without the intimacy and without being tied down.
Do just that- be intimate: Kiss, hug, snuggle/cuddle ... and eventually making love...
Tell him you love him in an intimate moment then wait for a response. Let your heart be your guide.
It's fine to love someone! There is a big difference between loving someone and becoming intimate with someone.
Write the valentine to a crush without using the word love. You will not want to use words that are too intimate as well.
give them a rose
You can love your friends without being in love with them.AnswerIt is also possible to love a spouse and not be "in love" with them as in the romantic sense.
Being in love is when you love someone for who they are. Being in love with the idea of someone is when you love what you want them to be, but not who you truly are. Answer There are some people out there who just want to be in love with Someone...they really don't care who. That would be being in love with the idea of being in love. Really being in love is when you meet someone, that special person who has an effect on you like no one else does, who you want to spend your time with, share things with, do things to make them happy, be there for them, etc. That person is WHO you want to be with and cannot be replaced by someone else.
If you don't want to lose someone who loves you, but you don't love them you should be honest about your feelings. You can still have someone in your life without being in love with them.
of course. You can love your parents, friends, grandparents, etc, with out being INlove with them. You can love a boyfriend/girlfriend with out being INlove. INlove is a much deeper kind of love that you only find a couple times in your life, if you're lucky. So, the answer is yes. You can love with out being inlove.
* To love someone (this can include family members and friends) is a love of respect for one or more people, but being in love is when you love someone of the opposite sex with all your heart.
