Does there have to be physical contact for someone to fall in love and how fast can it happen?

no

Instantly, though some might call it lust or infatuation

Contact...... no.....

and it can happen in the beat of two hearts......

But beware.... what you believe to be love might be just lust..... which is not near the same.....

BUT,,,,,,, and this is a BIG BUT......

Enduring love is the kind that comes from intimate knowledge of a person as a good close friend first..... and then, love happens as a progression of the experience. It is easy to fall into love..... Its hellishly hard to keep in love though......

Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

I picked up a new word the other day...cogent. Michael all of your posts are cogent. I like this one especially. It's very cogent. I think love can bloom once the idea of finding perfection is discarded.

Curt... oh, man, I was up till nearly 1:30 writing that stupid physics lab! But it was totally worth it! Even if my butt is draggin' this morning. Even after massive infusions of coffee on the way to school.

Michael?

Please don't take this the wrong way, but, are you related to W. C. E. Austin?

A chap who reads here still, but posts rarely. There are certain similarities in style of language.

Thanks guys. I really mean it, even if it did get off subject. I think the only thing I did was let my emotions get out of control.
