The Three Lovely L's (and no.. Not from death note.. God I wish)

Let's talk serious, k? Kkkool.
I'm so sorry- I'm just gonna get started with this.

Here we go..

I wanted to talk about emotions. Now, it's not my place to even go into this topic, because I don't even know what half of these are supposed to feel like and what stage I'd be in since I have questionable relationships in the past, and personal events in general.

*sigh*

When my wonderful cousin came to visit for unfortunate circumstances, one night I was having trouble with a boy who liked me, wanted to date me, but was hopelessly in love with another girl that didn't like him. He called it love. I suppose the only reason (you get view is your another white guy that people- I'm so sorry *ahem*) I said anything about it and what pissed me off was that he talked about her all the time to me. Never about himself or anything..
(I didn't want to date him because I hardly knew anything about him since it had been so long that we talked.)

I said he wasn't in love, that he just had puppy love. Because what he made it sound like was that she was the only perfect girl (he legit said that) in the world and he had to be with her, yet you want to date me? Was I just a bait? Was I just used for you to make the other person jealous? That made me pissed of all hell.

Anyway, when we were "chatting" and i  wanted to stop because I wanted to spend time with my lovely cousin, he played the guilt trip. I got so upset and mad that when (since I was staying at my family's place as well) my mother came in at the best/worst time. We had a talk about relationships and what not and all that mushy stuff. But she said something to me that I'll never forget.

The Three L's (ah, the main point)

L number one

Like: like is a time when everything is new and it's all bubbly and fresh, you want to get to know the person, butterflies and all happy.

Number two

Lust: (not sexual chill) lust is when you're in a lovey dovey stage of "oh I wanna hold your hand and hug you" all that, and flowers and warm and fuzzy.

Then number three where people get confused between the difference of lust and-

Love: love is when you'd do anything for that person. You show them you care, you don't tell them. You fight; you want to work it all out; you'd do anything to work it out with them. You help them.

Love can be interrupted in friendship, family, or a potential lover. But.. For people who are in lust they are.. Well the reason the two get confused is- in lust you would do the same, but your mind is still telling you go for it and risk it when you don't realize that you may end up hurting the other person for something. You don't think in lust as much as you do in love.

But basically, maybe I was wrong. Maybe I was just jealous of the fact that he found love at an early state, that he knew how it felt, he wasn't confused. I wasn't jealous because he loved her, not at all.

Moral of the story in knowing if you love some one, think before you leap.

(This was part one of my lovely adventures in dating troublesome stories! If you want to read more ((not sure why)) then tell me :3 I enjoy giving life lessons that are really shitty and really aren't that lesson-y and more depressing actually I'm just gonna go...... XD)

Also:
