How do you tell someone you love them

How do you tell someone you love them...

I could write 50 reasons why i love you on plain pieces of paper so that I emphasise with BIG handwriting how much I love you. Then I could tear each reason up and stuff it filling it to the roof of the tin of your favourite hot-chocolate.
Hmm... something tells me that wouldn’t work, just simply a repetition of ‘aww’  and an array of flourishing smiles.

Some people find the best way is to genuflect on one knee and whilst magically pulling out a diamond encrusted ring towards their half. A ring worth four pay checks and in this economic climate/downturn it would be a huge gesture. But that is all it is... A gesture. Wave,Smile,nod,middle finger- these are all gestures but they all have different meanings. The ring doesn’t speak what one truly wishes to say and can be interpreted in so many different ways.

So how do you tell someone you love them... This question has deluded the many pages of cupids black book for centuries. Some people take the whole fairy tale shenanigan  to be a realistic representation of their own lives. Many have even ended up shooting their loved ones in the back with a sharp piece of metal. Joke, i promise you not. * please do not try this at home* May this have serious consequences on your relationship (s).

Love is a way of life, Twilight fanatics could define and interpret it as their own personal brand of heroine. Love manifests itself into something people starve for. The feeling of seeing couples stumble the streets of town with their linked arms in representation of bonding just like Olympic symbols. And as they walk persuading themselves and spreading this chemical into the air they unconsciously give others a feeling of relapse and weakness. However, just like a drug love has its consequences. Leaving many hungry and thirsty for the pursuit of happiness. The day you look into your others half eyes and feel their heartbeat tick like a metal pulse against your wrist and every beat plays your favourite soundtrack and at the same time you whisper 3 words.... I am happy.

We have all felt love at least once in our lives. How do you tell someone you love them...? Simple, the answer is at the beginning of your whole life. When your mother held you in her arms for the first time, that’s when you and her for that split second defined the meaning love.

One must not be blind in what they do.... They must remember that love is an emotion. An emotion that many human beings play and toy with to gain satisfaction in their own empty lives. My favourite quote from one of my favourite movies goes as follows; ‘ Because thats what people do... they leap and hope to God they can fly! Because otherwise, we just drop like a rock... wondering the whole way down..."why in the hell did I jump?" But here I am, falling. And there's only one person that makes me feel like I can fly... That's you.’

So how do you tell someone you love them.... take a chance because life is made out of strings of fate and consequences. Keep trying till you have succeeded, for there is nothing more beautiful in the way the sea kisses the shoreline no matter how many times it is sent away.

How do I tell you...
