coffee tastes better with sugar.. [022908]

 

                What is the difference between attraction and fascination? If you ask my opinion about the matter, I prefer the later. When it comes to falling in love (and all the bullshit that comes with it), it’s more likely to be genuine if you’re fascinated with the person. I mean, come on. All of us can get attracted to someone in the first glance because of the physical appearance. But how many have felt a great deal of connectedness once they get to know the person? This is in such a way that they hear this person talk, see them move about, or even plain verbal interaction. The whole process of actually liking someone starts here. This is just my opinion. You can disagree for all you want. I wouldn’t care.

 

                I’m not being romantic here. NO. I don’t wanna talk about love and become mushy all together. All I’m saying is that before we could really claim that we feel something special or extraordinaire for someone or we’re ready to engage in a relationship with this person, we have to feel something specific. It’s not just mere stereotyping the looks or the appeal of that person but knowing his/her character and what makes him/her different from any other individual. This for me, ladies and gentlemen, is what I term as ‘fascination’. I know, Layman would have a diverse definition but what the heck. It’s not like he could actually do something about it.

 

                So the bottom line of me writing this blog is that there’s more to the inside than what’s seen on the outside. Let’s stop attributing simple attraction to an overwhelming feeling of like or love. That’s stupidity. It doesn’t make any sense. Don’t just get attracted with someone. Get to know that person. Be fascinated if your emotions permit you to do so. And then fall. Take a risk. Be in love.
