The Quote
I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I’ve ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.
- From The Notebook
♥♥♥
My questions:
Do people really talk to each other like that?
Do you talk to your person like that?
Have you ever been spoken to in such a romantic and deep way?
Does this only happen in movies and books?
*hugs*

Sorry we are the modern generation and we have lost touch. Mea culpa too.
Thanks Newsy…I wonder about this.
*hugs*
Only in the movies… If I talked like that, my wife would laugh her head off… even though we are old folk…
I imagine it being quite funny if people have never spoken to each other like that and then suddenly one of you decide to do so
*hugs*
Happy hugger, thanks and hugs a ton for sharing and reminding this.
This person, Nicholas Sparks, (I am talking about the book version) has got an amazing ability to capture minds. I don’t think some one emotional will disagree with me on that. All his books have depicted true emotions which helped him win millions of fans all over world. I am also one.
And, these emotions and expression of emotions are quite REAL. They just don’t exist in books/movies. The only thing is this – Humans these days forget about true emotions and relations…they are just busy running after something and even if they understand the value of these in life, it would be too late.
But I wish, I told this AND some one special told me this, which all depends on God Almighty’s hands.
Just keeping hope!
I agree with you, we are all running around and are too busy to really get down to actually smelling the roses.
*hugs*

Responding to all,
Nicholas Sparks must be someone pretty good. My daughter loves his books and so many adore his movies and books.
I have never seen nor read any, however, it seems to me that I should watch, at least, “The Notebook” to have a better (more real) opinion of him.
As for speaking like him; even if a woman were to laugh at you for speaking that way, deep down, I think, she would love it.

I think there are some women who would not feel comfortable being spoken to this way but then there definitely are those who would love it as long as it is sincere
*hugs*
Sorry, sincerity was assumed. I should not have as I know a lot of men who would speak that way just to make her think so.
Nobody would dream of giving the sort of speeches you find in Shakespeare these days, but he is still read and enjoyed as a great writer. Nicky Sparky may be good to read but I doubt his stuff is on the button as far as reality goes.
I agree
*hugs*

Here are my thoughts on your questions:
Most people, don’t talk to each other like that, why not? Because when we get past the “I’m so super in love with you that I puke butterflies every ten minutes” we forget to appreciate each other in that way, we are more taking it all for granted. (Or we just find it embarrassing!)
Personally I don’t talk to anyone like that, because it’s not in my nature. But writing things like “I’m glad you are in my life, I love you” are more my thing.
Never experienced anyone talking to me like that and if they did I would go into some type of shock I guess.. “Why are you telling me this?!?!? What have you done wrong?!?!?” <- any normal reaction in my life
It mainly happens in movies and books – might be because we all would want it to be true but if it did happen in real life would it feel as great? Would it give you the reaction you wanted?
Oh yeah, I'm probably a pessimist!
Have a great day
Thanks for your thoughts on this Maggie and I must say I agree with a lot of what you’re said.
*hugs*
The same husband I have had for over 50 years does not talk like that. Sometimes he creates cards though,with underlying words of love covered by humor. I save every card.
Those must be so special, Dor.
*hugs*

So sweet…
Those are truly very sweet words…
*hugs*
I dated someone who spoke like this and he lost me A LOT because half the time I didn’t know if he meant what the hell he was saying or whether he truly believed in every word that came out of his mouth.
It just seemed so unreal and so good to be true that I found out later on that he was cheating on me the entire time he pulled those beautiful speeches on me. So yes, maybe people do speak that way, but I’m so jaded these days that I’d be looking at them sideways if they did.
I know what you mean. If these words are used they really and truly have to be sincere and not just lines and words.
*hugs*

This is just movie, I wished someone said that to me. So lovely and romantic. We can still dream Michelle. I wouldn’t be able to talk like htis either, but might write it. I am better at expressing my feelings in writing. So far I have not really met a very romanitc man…… but there is always hope
Romatic men seem to be few and far between
*hugs*
Absolutely, I think they are not bred anymore…
oh I do have 2 boys, I could teach them how to be romantic , once they have girlfriends…haha

I’ve never had that luck Michelle… certainly not my husband who hasn’t got a romantic fibre in his person, character or personality or brain… And the list goes on! *sigh*
Thanks Dinxie
*hugs*
I don’t think people really talk like this in real life but what do I know. I also believe that people long for that kind of connection with someone that is all encompassing. Isn’t that what people are looking for? I don’t know that answer either. I am not talented in the area of relationships and making them work. I could be half a Nicholas Sparks novel I would make a good half of one of his stories, the part about difficulty and breaking up. Wait a second, maybe the second half is coming today? I’ll let you know.
I’ll be waiting to hear
*hugs*
For me actions speak louder than words. I would be uncomfortable.
Perfectly said footsie
*hugs*
In the modern era, I doubt that sort of speech happens much.
If I tried it, I would probably get a suspicious, ‘What have you done, or what do you want?’
Hehe, that would probabaly sound a bit odd.
*hugs*
Why do you think I’m still so hung up about my dude?
He actually did speak to me like that.
He was, and probably still is, the man i should have had by my side. Feet of clay or no. Some things just can’t be replaced.
I understand, ghiatjie.
*hugs*

No. My husband John and I would never talk like that even if we’re drinking wine, a lot of wine.
LOL, yes, I don’t know ow people who would talk like that even with other forms of alcohol
*hugs*
To be honest this looks like movie-speak to me, For true sincerity, I would prefer someone looking me straight in the eye, simply saying “I love you” and then giving me a big hug.
I have a feeling that if someone said this to me, we’d stare at each other for a moment and then burst out laughing. It would make a great comedy scene!
I guess it would work in a film, though.
That sounds more real, I must agree
*hugs*

I don’t know why, this is the best post I liked from you (so far).
But I don’t mind though!
I am sharing your link in Google plus, I hope you don’t mind.
I am sure, some one may think that I am living in a surreal world, to be in love with such emotions or to live with a longing for such (real) emotions
Thanks Mridubala

Thanks ad
*hugs*
Yes, I’ve been spoken to in a deep and romantic way.
No, never in words like that.
Same here, El.
*hugs*
I’m still waiting for that romance. I mean, we’re romantic, but not with that kind of words. On the other hand, we’re still can dream of it and wait
True that
*hugs*
I would die laughing if anyone ever spoke to me like that, lol! Such a stilted way of speaking belongs in the theatre, that’s for sure.
It would be quite amusing, but I think I would appreciate it non the less though
*hugs*
No.
Also.

I think it’s a shame if people aren’t expressing emotions like this. Movies and books may be fantasy worlds but at times there are elements of truth that they encompass. It’s like they are holding up mirrors to our world and we are embarrassed by what we see because we feel that we can’t express ourselves in the way that they do. I agree that sincerity needs to be behind the words or they will feel false or clichéd but if the sentiment is real then they would be the most powerful, exciting and original words in the world. Call me old-fashioned but this is the kind of romance that still thrills me to this day. It’s timeless, special and there will always be someone who deserves these words to be spoken to them at some point in their life.
It would be wonderful if people were still like this. I love how you expressed your thoughts here, thank you so much.
*Hugs*
You’re welcome. And thank you for the stimulating question. I may have become overstimulated, as my brain now hurts a little and I may require alcohol to calm down.
lol! have a nice glass of wine
What a terrific idea – I’ll take ten! (Sips that is)
