18 or 19, I wouldn't say it was something I fell into so much as grew into. Thats not to say I didn't have crushes before, but I never knew anyone nearly well enough to say I loved them, in a romantic sense.

I don't know if you'd call it love, but that's how it felt to me, back in the hazy days of youth. As with all great tragic romances, my love was unrequited. I was 8 and recently removed from my biological mother's care. Scared, vulnerable, confused. Living with foster parents for the first time. He was their 20-year-old biological son with a gorgeous smile and a motorcycle. Alas, it was not to be. :roll:

I think it might be not as straightforward as it appears. I feel it must be that they find someone who loves them, at which point they realize it's so rare to find a person who actually loves you, and decide to fake it until it becomes real.

I'm not sure it's really faking it, personally. I think love is something that can be learned or developed or however you want to put it.

That's a cynical answer. It's probably true. :(

Keyword "metaphorical". Fangirling has very different connotations from fanboying. It usually has some sort of romantic overtone of some sort.

Her name was Maria Rubí.

We were both in Kindergarten.

She thought kissing was icky until she kissed me.

I've never had strong enough feelings towards another person to call it love. But I do love myself.

15-16. Dated for about a year total.
Don't really know what happened to end it.
It was a really, really odd relationship anyway, according to everyone who ever knew us.

Personally, I don't believe anyone can "fall in love" with a member of the opposite sex until they are of adult age (17, 18, or over). Anything before that and it's mostly what I would define as "infatuation". People are too young to understand true love, in the context of romance.

Horse shit. I doubt you could even define love, let alone decide what age you're allowed to have it. Anyway, I would say most people under 30 and a lot of people older than that are obviously going to have a hard time discerning love from infatuation, because it takes experience with both to really understand what they are.

I'd guess he was more confused because he misread that post and recalled you referring to yourself as male some time or another.
