Love is not a choice

You can choose
Who to care
Who to protect
Who to Share life with

But U can never choose
Who to fall in love with…

Coz

Love is not a choice
It’s DESTINY


This was a SMS forward I received couple of days back and it made me think for a while…

How true is it???

Can we actually choose whom to fall in love with… or it just happens…

How many qualities we have in our mind… (The andekha anjana concept of DDLJ) do we actually think of all those when we fall in love???
Do we tick mark or say, “Yes” or “No” against the so-called ‘perfect’ list we have in our mind for our lover...

"Chahat par bas nahin badi belagam hain
Har koi apne ishq ke dar par gulam hain"

I do agree that love is not a choice... its destiny...
it happens when we expect it the least... or with the person we never would have thought... or its so fast that we realise only after falling for it...

(I'm only talking about falling in love... not about a relationship... or staying with that person for life)
"Khata to tab ho jab hole dil kisi se kahe
Kisi ko chahate rehna koi khata to nahin"

What do you think... is it true ???

I thought st000nie left blogging..now I see she took up a f/t job in Pu's blog..lollz! Hugggggggz st000nie I miss ya tonz! How u doing? All ok at ur end?


Love is not a choice...?

It sure isnt...cos u cant choose to love someone...it has to be natural. U cant force urself or someone else to love...it has to be natural. Just like a river flows naturally and gracefully, love shall too...just like that river meets so many barriers but cuts thru em and flows gently, love shall too...cos it's all natural and it shall be...

love @ when we are kids love can be destiny.

As we grow up we train our mind to get attracted at equals.

If it is not choice why guy fall for good looking girls,

ahaa...falling in luvv :-)...u can go lukin for luvv all ur life...and sumtimes luv cld happen wen u least expect it:-)...

i wish i cld say i believe the sms like everyone does here:-) but @boldnbeautiful...u have a point there! not always true but yes sumwhere our mind does get conditioned as we grow older...more mature...(not just abt luks though..!)...

sorry if i sound skeptical...cynical:-)!!

ummm...life teaches one a lot abt relationships..i wrote a post way back on sumthin similar "fallin in luv vs. bein in luvv" (abt what i felt when before i got married...lolz..still have to write the concluding part...!)http://ishipishi.blogspot.com/2005_10_28_ishipishi_archive.html

It might seem like destiny, but we all have certain parameters in our minds.Fixed.There are some things we like, appreciate eg value systems, choice in music movies, reading, travelling, sports and when we find some other with similar choices where the chemistry is right we fall in love.I doubt its totally fate..I think some where there is a subconcious decision.

Love is a feeling which grows in one...without one's awareness...so one shouldn't bother...sirf ehasaas hai ye...iise koi aur naam na do :)

Good post...

Damn!! "LOVE" topic again??hehe..i love this topic actually ^_^ hmmm..
"Don't find love,let love find you.That's why it's called falling in love,because you don't force yourself to fall...you just fall!!

me agrees,
in a way love happens accidentally.
coutrsy LAFS.

also me thinks,
even in LAFS , our heart internally chooses n accepts that person @ the nick of the moment.

again i say, different strokes for diff't folks :))

i think it is true ........
if we start thinking rationally and fall in love consciously with somebody then........it becomes something else rather than love.....

it is natural...
it just happens ....
it is destiny....
and if we after that if we could be happy with the loved one for ever then that is the greatest joy ever..!!!

I remember wen i small and would see pretty girls fall for bad guys...i used to always say "are these girls mad??? how can they fall in love with such guys!!!", to which my friend would say,"love just happens, with anyone,you don't say, ok he has these many qualities ...fine now i can fall in love with him...it just happens"...

i used to scoff at such things...yea i used to say, i will never let that happen!!

but today i feel, love just happens. and wen it does your list of perfect lover just changes or maybe then it doesnt really matter!!
i agree, love is not a choice...but whether to love or not is definitely one's choice!!

if i want to fall in love i can anytime with right or wrong person...but if i don't want to fall in love i will never do so...cause i believe to fall in love 1st we need to make space for this new special person in our life only then can we find love...that's wat i think:)

donknow whether it just happen or we choose to fall but if I have to say...I think...love never happens in the unconscious state....its a wonderful feeling n it deserve all the senses to feel so wen u r in normal state u know wat ur choice are I mean ur heart certainly fall in that person who has that especial qualities (in a way to coincide ur perfect list)...ur need for perfection is the choice of heart...if luv is the special connection of two heart then it definitely interconnect with the one which ur heart feel is made for u....i guess!!!n i'm confused with ma own verdict now....lolzzz

Hmmm
You have to choose someone you firstly that u will love!
If the other one loves ya too its all good!
Sometimes we rely too much on destiny but its actually us who does it all!
It's not destiny that makes us come across someone no!
We can anytime cross our ways
But you see, we humans rely too much on destiny that we never praise ourselves of what we did rather its destiny that made it do
But its ur actions that makes destiny
Destiny doesnt makes u, U make destiny
