Settling in relationships

All things considered, I think I'd like to know, if a bitch I'm getting into a serious relationship with, at any point thought I looked like a ninja turtle.
 
This 'head over heals' shit is problematic. Lol. What does that mean exactly, @Cunt_Lyfe‌? Explain that concept to me. Serious question.

"If you’re under 30 and in a relationship right now, and you’re not head over heels, get out. You are way too young to be wasting your time with someone who doesn’t make you really happy to be with them every day. There’s nothing sadder than watching 23-year-olds settle."

--Carolyn Hall

Actually, there's nothing sadder than seeing anyone settle at any age.

What a dumb quote

Interesting. Care to explain why?

Because most people aren't instantly head over heels for their s/o.

I didn't see where she "instantly" head over heels, do you?

I see the part where she says if you're not then you shouldn't bother

Why should you bother staying in a relationship if you're not head over heels?

The person is basically your roommate at that point.

Because that's unrealistic.

lol..people aren't just 'head over heels' throughout an entire lifelong commitment.

Or maybe you just haven't met the right person to make you feel that way.

It seems like people expect feelings like that to disappear over time when I think it should get stronger the longer you are together.

Or maybe you haven't been with someone long enough to see where I'm coming from.

Plenty of people are going to make you giddy with excitement during the easy honeymoon phase, but life happens and it's back to reality.

That giddyness turns into something deeper and more real. That's the true test IMO.

Nah, it's not the same excitement as it is early on, but that doesn't mean you throw it out.

If so, it's going to be wash, rinse, and repeat your whole life.

Serious question, what's the longest relationship you've had? Relationships go through strain and stress for everyone. Staying in love is a choice and a hell of a lot of work. No one skips through a long term relationship with no problems. You don't like the person you're in love with all the time. Even parents don't like their kids all the time.

"Head over heels", in my opinion, is basically where you feel a deep connection with person you're seeing.

You feel them.

I'm not talking about that high school rush of infatuation shit, but that real soulful type of shit.

Ppl just need to limit their expectations (from the start) and the shit will go as smooth as planned..

This...and the fact that when titles are bestowed on people, their attitude mostly change for the worse

Hoes want a dude that's has a college degree (when she don't have one) a six pack..(she can't do 2 sit-ups) and have a six figure job (when she's an entry level personal)

Niggas want a chick that has a big ass..flat stomach ...can cook...fuck/nasty....sing in the choir....makes close to 100K..and likes sports...

Shit is getting outta control with ppl Lol....put a cap on yo shit and you wont have to settle

I just want a girl that won't nag....still waiting for the creator to get on that lol

When the creator makes you do everything perfect, you'll find that woman.

I know relationships go through hard ships. Every relationship does.

Being "in love" to me is not about flowery, sweet type of shit and ignoring the bullshit.

It's about maintaining a deep connection and purpose of being with someone while you still do.

People can have that but honestly it fades. Everyone gets used to each other. It comes back, but, yes, at some point that person will have nothing new under the sun to say to you. And you just have to work to renew that feeling.

I feel what you're saying. I just honestly can find someone to be with where y'all are are growing together. But if it's not even there in the beginning, then I do think that it is settling in some regard.
