Jackmn does crack me up sometimes but then you have to bear in mind that he is, of course, a Vulcan. :)

In raw terms he is right about love, but then our lives are all a sequence of chemical reactions, that doesn't change the fact that we still have to live them, and some chemical reactions are better than others.  Loneliness is a terrible thing whereas intimacy is tough to beat.

You want the closest approxiamation to the answer to your question, read Iris' post carefully.  She is after all in the know.

it is really sad that some of us, jacknm(sp?) have such a bad outlook on love, to expand more on my post before...

im currently 19, and my childhood wasnt exactly filled with love, if you know what i mean, and as i grew up i started dating and each one inevitably failed one after another, none lasting for much more than a month. then just as i thought that, maybe im not just ment to fall in love, then i met roxanne, and it took me about a month to work up the courage to ask her out, and when she said yes, i dont really know how to explain it, but she still tells me today that when i asked her out and she said yes, that my eyes just lit up, and have had a new sparkle to them ever since, it was like a great stone was lifted off of my chest and i could breath again. i gained a new outlook on life. and this may sound corny to some of you, but i will never forget our first kiss, it was magical... thats the best way i can think to describe it. and when im with her, i feel as tho nothing could go wrong. love is truly an amazing feeling, and definetly much more than bio-chemical signals our brain sends out, and i dont pity jackmn, but i am very sorry that he has not yet experienced this feeling. well all i can say is that love truly is an amazing feeling.
ahh shit there i go again, when i get started talkin about it, everything just starts to pour out. well i wish the best of luck to all.

Right....erm.....well everyone seems to have covered pretty much everything at this stage....

Only advice I guess I could give would be this. Ask her questions about her, or her interests, and pay attention to her answers, and use those answers as springboards for more questions. And when she asks you questions respond truthfully. And smile be a nice guy to be around.

To OutBreak: I know how you feel. I'm 22, 23 in April and engaged to be married as many of the forum, and IRC regulars could tell you. And I don't care what the science behind love is, even though I am a self confessed scientist. I just love her, simple as that.

I was supposed to be married already. But things don't always go as planned.

Aoife wasn't able to get a job, and all our savings went on Aoife just living with me. In the end we had to cancel as we were running low on money. Aoife had to move back in with her folks as I couldn't keep working all those hours to keep her living with me as it was making me ill. So she moved home, but I see her about twice a week and she stays over on Saturdays after our usual nights out with our friends. Even though we are apart it doesn't change our feelings.

We will just have to save up again and then try it all over again. :)

Apart from heart attacks, and cancer. They suck worse then Anna-Nicole Smith in a men only gym.

FDR had Polio and was likely a much stronger man for it.  :)

You got it all wrong!

No I didn't.  That had nothing to do with his strength, that was just PR.  :)

Aaah, Outbreak's gushing brings all those feelings of first proper love back again.  The exhuberance of youth is a wonderful thing.  Pity you can't bottle it!

I'm off to think about Karen in Munich in 1988, happy days ;)
