-Bella Swan
An Addictive love, though it can be fun, is probably the worst kind of love to feel, because it requires so much sacrifice. The symptoms are as follows:
- The 'need' to unnecessarily be self-sacrificing 'to prove your love.'
- Severely exaggerating your lover's qualities or not noticing your love's true qualities.
- (Guys or Girls) Constantly proving your love by outrageous, sometimes dangerous stunts of courage
- Constant fear of saying the wrong, unromantic things (So basically having a constant filter or looking on quietly with a faux worldly expression at your love)
- Because you have a filter, you can't deeply confide with significant other
- Constantly waxing poetically
- Doesn't require much growth, development, or serious commitment
- No capacity to deal with lover's bad habits because...they don't have bad habits (for all you know)
- Projecting a picture perfect ideal onto your lover
- An overdramatic view of how love should always be very intense and not fun.
- not having a solid foundation of friendship
Everything then equates to the bullets below=
- Very unrealistic expectations
- Irresponsibility
- Short-lived
- Running on passion alone, and not firm understanding
- Not rooted in reality
- Requires perfect, neat little images of both lovers...
- Blindness to faults
- Unauthentic
- Doesn't require fun
- All about appearances
- Devoid of natural, easy-going conversations or having other interests outside your significant other to share with them
Sugary/addictive love is more concentrated on the giddiness of seeing a particular person and feeling very important to them, but not much else of substance. This love, built on grandiose notions and intense 'passion', will cannibalize itself.
