| Your Five Variable Love Profile |

I’ve always pooh-poohed the validity of love tests but for some reason, this one seemed pretty accurate. It really made my day too. Thanks for the forward, buddy! There is a story behind every result and this one is no different.
All of us have fallen in love at some point or other in our lives. No, it is not the teenage crush “I love you, you love me” kind of cow story with the big bull in them. Unless of course, you are still a teenager and if you are, you are at the wrong blog. Mature audiences only kk thanks. Okay, okay, bad joke.
I always believe that love does funny things to an individual. Sometimes, it brings out the best in us and at times, the worst. Citing myself as an example, I have the tendency to become a total buffoon in front of a woman that I fancy (Especially at the initial stages or when I’m trying to ask her out). But once all the butterflies in my stomach decide to find another abode, things become much better and she brings out the best in me. Hey, no kidding. Just go ask my ex. LOL!
Falling into depression is no joke and it can steal away a person’s best years. And there are few of those years. Depression really KOed me and I found it hard to get my derailed life back on track. I really thank God that he allowed a special woman into my life to help ease the hurts and to show me that I could still be a blessing to other people. I learnt so much and today, I can only look back at 1 Corinthians 13 and smile.
“… Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”
A dear woman in my life once complained “They’re all younger than me.” Oh well, if it is written that you should date younger men, you can’t escape. It isn’t all that bad either. I know I made her smile a lot. She’s doing great in her relationship right now and I’m delighted for her and I wish her all the best. As for me, I’ve got a complaint about the women that I fancy now. “They’re all better than me.” Well, as far as achievements are concerned, that is.
And the dreaded “what if” dialogue comes back to haunt me. What if I wasn’t so stubborn and let go of my ideals? What if I didn’t fall into depression? What if I didn’t feel like I had nothing to prove to anyone? What if my parents didn’t coerce me into the pure sciences? What if this, what if that. Zzzzzz. Oh well, the world may not make sense but I can make sense. And I will try to make their dreams come true.
You probably think that I’m a hopeless romantic by now. Yea, I am. So bite me. What? You don’t believe in love? You’re seeing red and you feel like charging me like a bull at a matador? Go ahead. But before you do, do allow me to inform you that bulls don’t just charge at red. They’re colour blind and charge at anything that provokes them. See how many things you learn from my blog? LOL! Ok, charge me now and I’ll leave you with a song while you’re at it.
