I still don't. : I only opened myself up to one person my whole life and that was this past last year. Well, never believe anybody who says they love you until after they've stuck with it for at least 2 years and even then accept it very cautiously. Never ever believe an ENTP if he tells you he loves you, he'll just get bored with you in no time. Speaking from experience here. : It's just that before, very unlike right now, I never had any real kind of hard, concrete, hard evidence and proof that "romatic, true love" does not really exist after all, but only as a fairy tale, a kind of comic cruel 'joke', that if could ever exist in the first place, only would be nothing but a kind of cruel, evil, bitter trap for the unitiated to get suckered into and learn the hard way. It's too bad I'm still a romantic on some level and keep hoping it would exist somewhere. It is cruel, though, love will twist the knife in you whether it's when you don't yet know if the other person loves you or after he/she has told you that he doesn't love you "anymore". The middle part is blissfully ignoring reality, as far as I'm concerned. : "Love" as in "true love" does not exist. Only figments of one's imagination does.
