Why do some people fall in love with a fellow of opposite gender? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9054)   ranked 32 out of 11,844 in love7 months ago

I have come across many friends/ members here who admit that they have fallen in love with a member from opposite gender and then the got married to the same person. I wanted those friends/members to share with me the secret of falling in love, what makes them fall in love with a person of opposite gender, what plays in their minds, when they realize that they have fallen in love and what are two most important traits/qualities of the other fellow which prompted them to fall in love with him/her. Many thanks in advance for your likely responses. happy

Relationships are about getting our own needs met, often on an unconscious basis. In other words, we try to find someone who is complementary to us and can help us learn, heal, and grow.It can be fun to list what attracted you to one another when you first met, and what you continue to appreciate in one another.i like his intelligience,spontaniety and ambitious nature.

I quite agree with you Riya that one falls in love with the other person, when s/he sees that his/her needs (read emotional needs are being met), may be unconsciously. I buy your argument that we try to search a person, who can complement us and help us grow. You have rightly pointed out that there were indeed some positive qualities in your lover (now supposedly your hubby) which made you fall in love with him. Thanks for understanding the core issue in the discussion and sharing. I appreciate your wonderful response. thumbupthumbup

What exactly is a meaning of fellow of opposite gender?

I mean this is an unsaid rule that a girl would fall in love with a boy and a boy will fall in love with a girl, isn't it?

For me, I have not been in love, so I can't tell why a guy gets an attraction from a girl!

At some point Deepak this discussion is funny. The question suggest that you rather understand falling in love with the same gender..... lol
Anyway, falling in love is not restricted (as we know) to the same gender.
The anatomy and physiology of love is always the same. People subcutaneously pick up the best person to be mother or father for future babies, or the best companion for friendship...we pick up the same or similar vibrations of other person body....and suddenly our heart start running much faster and faster...
Your question suggest that only few people fall in love and only few people marry person they fall in love with...
I know that in India arranged marriages are a norm, when in Europe and America people usually marry the person they fall in love with...

Hi Pola!
I regret that I could convey in my post, what I might have thought and my discussion was in the context of systems and traditions prevailing in India. I am sorry for unclear discussion.
I agree with your views and I also feel that people in other countries usually come to know each other first, before they get marry.
Many thanks for your response.
Hugs!


myLot reputation of 97/100. polachicago (7880)   ranked 101 out of 11,844 in love  7 months ago

Deepak, I new after reading your discussion that you are talking from Indian point of view. I am big fun of India. I think that it is very beautiful country with great people. I just wish for people from India to be able to make their own decision about marriage....

POla! I wish that your wishes about choosing a partner come out true. We Indians basically live in conventional environment and the society is liberating gradually, however, still, it is not possible for everyone to choose his/her partner of choice, it is the parents who finally decided a partner for marriage. No doubt, some of the boys/girls succeed in convincing their parents for settling with a partner of their choice and in some of the cases, love-marriages are converted or say made to look like arranged marriages. I think transformation will continue to take place grdaully and one day our society may become like yours.
Hugs!

Hi.
When you say 'some people fall in love with a fellow of opposite gender'.
What do you actually mean?
So you think that most people fall in love with a fellow of same gender?


myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9054)   ranked 32 out of 11,844 in love  7 months ago

Sorry for the unclear discussion, if you could not get its meaning, I regret the same.

It is indeed a mysterious thing. True love just happens...no need to question it. Just let it happen see where it goes from there. Sometimes people like someone but they try too hard to actually love them....then they fools themselves into thinking that they actually did fall in love with them, however this is not true love in my opinion. You can't force a good thing to happen.

You don't choose who to fall in love with. It just happens. I could have just as easily fallen in love with someone of the same gender as myself. But, I didn't... I fell in love with someone of the opposite gender. I think once you realize that you have fallen in love you can't just shake it off and go back to the way you were before.

I'm not sure I'm understanding you correctly here.

But more often than not, people DO fall in love with the "opposite gender"

Could it be that you mean opposite personalities?

Hello dpk262006,

I am married to a man that I love so much. Guess, I am a lucky person. I had a terrible experience in relationship before that it took me almost 6 years to recover and be my usual self. When I met my husband for the first time, the love just sparked and after a few months, I knew that I can't live (happily) without this man. I took a year to get to know him and got married later. For me, he is the only man that I met (after I broke up with my first ex boy friend) that makes me forget about the sad pasts and he was able to make me smile again! He is a few year younger than me too but I am so much amazed at his maturity in life, and he is the only person (who is younger than me) who can really make me listen to his words!


myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9054)   ranked 32 out of 11,844 in love  7 months ago

Hi!gr8!
Your story sounds quite interesting and I feel glad to read it that you are managing your affairs with a person, who is younger to you. I think you have found a compatiable match in him and he is mature enought to get along with you. I feel you will go a long way. MY best wishes are with you.

I don't know why they fall in love with a fellow gender. I don't like it.

Having a relatioship with the opposite gender is the ideal one. Sorry people out there. No offense.
