Love is a Drug
Love is a powerful narcotic with devastatingly addictive properties.
– Xenocrates
Have you ever been in love? Are you in love right now? What’s the craziest thing you wouldn’t do for the person you love? If you can think of more than three of them, then you probably aren’t in love. You are probably experiencing a deep emotional affection heavily tempered by rationality. That’s the right place to be, because when you’re in love with someone, it is easier to have died a thousand deaths than to let go of that warm, infuriatingly intoxicating feeling.
Whatever you do, don’t fall in love before you read this.

Lol very nice read xen really enjoyed made alot of sense actually
Daggomit, Xen. You always have a way of reducing the best of life’s mysteries to mere facts and figures!
Nonetheless, great read.
Great article I enjoyed this.
I remember being in love some years ago even though I didn’t want to. I absolutely hated it. The lingering effects it has are horrible and even to this day I still have nightmares about her……
Xenlogic Said:
Recall how the lingering wisps of their scent would consume your memories until you are spent. Recall how the briefest glance from across a room would instantly dispel all your sense of gloom.

Oh the memories!!!! NEVER again…..
