My Definition of Love Has Been Changed.....

I have spent years of my life thinking I understood the love between a man and a woman. Sure I understand the love between a parent and a child or the love between best friends or the love between you and a sibling. But the love between a man and a woman is harder to wrap your finger around. I thought the emotions that ran through my body was the feeling of LOVE. It is amazing how it takes you removing yourself from a situation or walking away from it allows you to see so much more. Sometimes it takes you leaving the person you thought you loved inwhich can be the most painful thing to understand or see what is before you. I recently finally walked away from a situation inwhich I thought I loved someone and them vice versus. The keyword is THOUGHT. It took taking a break from the dating scence to get myself together and then later on dating someone exclusively to find out not only what I had before WAS NOT LOVE and that I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT LOVE IS! I am only at the age of 24 and yes I have my entire life ahead for the LOVE OF MY LIFE to come alnong. But here I am seeing this wonderful man and we have not once expressed our feelings in the form of those three words. But at the same time I know he cares and that he respects me and understands how I am to be treated. And for me at this current moment that is enough. I am truly blessed to have the life I have right now........but with him life is a tad bit sweeter. NOTICE LADIES I DID NOT SAY HE MAKES MY LIFE SO MUCH BETTER...OR I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DO WITHOUT HIM. You should never under any circumstance let A MAN.....should be the reason for your existence.

So now I am in this new place in life where I am wondering will I ever know what love is? Will I know it when I feel it? How can it be described?
