How many of you have thought before falling in love?

I am a thinking person before I give in I honestly have to consider a lot of factors before finally saying "YES". These are the following: our values and interest. I want to be with someone I know I can grow as a person not as his shadow.

You can't stop yourself falling in love to someone, especially when you see his/her good side... however, if you see his/her bad side, that's the time that you should think about his/her total personality. All of us has a good and bad qualities, so you can't just dissipate from him/her upon the discovery of the bad trait. You should analyze both sides and see if one outweighs the other. Then, if you think he/she is great, then you can make your first move. Otherwise, just accept him/her for who he/she is. :)

haha i guess i did have thought a couple of times before falling in love.. or at least before going steady with a person courting me.. but falling in love is something you cannot really control or have your mind decide on... y
