Dear Ben,
The
Heavens Open on a Regular Basis
Your sensitivity is very
touching...but you're twelve. I can promise you that the heavens
will open for you on a regular basis with many different young women.
There was a time when I was in my teens that the heavens seemed
to open daily.
Infatuation
at First Sight
Love is not infatuation.
Infatuation is when you see a girl for the first time and imagine
the most wonderful things with her that you can.
Love
Ain't Easy
Love is communicating.
Love is relating. Love is working on a constant connection. Love
ain't easy my friend. Infatuation...that's the easy part. For me
it still happens nearly every day.
Do
a Reality Check
So my recommendation
is that when you do get infatuated, don't tell your friends. Make
the effort to talk to the girl...see if your expectations match
with the reality of this person. See if she really is "all
that."
Love,
Charlie
