What does it mean to love someone? How are you supposed to feel?

[ Hi, everyone. Have an awkward, developmentally-stunted dude who asks weird questions with no preamble. It's a heavy topic most people would probably prefer to discuss with close friends and family, not someone they've never met, but Roman doesn't think like that. It doesn't occur to him that some topics may not be appropriate to post on a network like this with relative strangers.

It doesn't occur to him that some people probably can't relate, or wouldn't care about this kind of inner turmoil. There are plenty of other things to worry about here, too, but these thoughts take precedence to him. Surviving in a strange new world is, to him, almost preferable to the struggles within, those of the heart and soul. ]

Some people don't deserve it, do they?

Love isn't something you can easily explain.
Or why you love them.

It's something you have to experience for yourself.

[twofates]

How do you experience it? Some people might never, right?

[goldsteins]

There's no how to guide to it. Love is something that happens and you don't have any control over it. I can't speak for everyone, though, and you can only figure out what it is to yourself.

I wonder if it will ever just happen for me. If it did, I don't know if I'd recognize it.

It's not something most people would recoginize.
In truth understanding love and the form it takes involves self-evaluation and that of the circumstances. It's not likely to be something you've felt before.
