I used to be in love with David Cassidy.
I imagined what it would be like when we met and what our shared home would be like ~ big, with huge windows and floaty net curtains, overlooking the sea.
I knew that if he just met me, he would think that I was as perfect for him as he was for me.
Just looking at pictures of him made me happy.
Was it a crush?
Of course it was.
If we had met, would he haved loved me as much as I loved him?
Well, how much did I love him?
Not at all, really, because I didn't know him.
If we had met, could he have fallen in love with me?
Who knows?
He might have; he might not have.
If we had met, would I have still loved him?
Who knows?
Probably not.
I have been to some of his recent concerts and it brought back lots of lovely memories ~ memories of an imaginary love affair.
He's OK. I like his voice, but I'm not sure that I would get on well with him in person.
I think that there is something we might call love at first sight ~ but you need to get to know the person in order to be sure that it is real.
I am sure that there are famous people, whom we have crushes on, and with whom we might actually fall in love, if we got to know them. But surely there has to be a meeting ~ a 'getting to know'?!
Someone else, on here, was talking about two men she had fallen in love with over the Internet. She hadn't met either of them.
I have heard of people falling in love via letters and I know that Internet dating can work, and I'm sure that some fans of well-known people genuinely do fall in love with them, but surely you cannot be certain that you love someone you don't really know?!?!
