"Love is being stupid together."

I read this in one of the heart-shaped cut-outs in the third floor stretch. I'm familiar with this quote, I've read this tens of times before. I always did agree. But right not, well, I guess I've changed somehow. I beg to disagree.

Having fun together doesn't always need to be stupid, or doing stupid things together. Sometimes, stupid things get you into trouble. For example, crashing into a club and getting drunk and high, with music bouncing off the walls. Sounds like a party, right? And parties are fun, right? But, what if you're a minor? Drinking is illegal. BTW, I'm finally legal, yey~! Anyway, what if you get robbed, mobbed, date-raped. DI BA? Being stupid isn't always fun. And having fun does not require one to be stupid.

Love is being stupid together. Love for work, isn't stupid. Being committed to your job, to what feeds your family, is not stupid. Love between friends isn't stupid. Eating lunch together, shopping together, doing each others nails and make-up isn't stupid.

If whoever wrote the quote means, "falling for someone unexpectedly, doing things you never thought you'd do," then I forgive him or her. Not that he or she has done much of a sin.

We are but just human beings. We want the best things in the world. We set standards, we have requirements for a partner. We have our ideal type. But, this is what the quote author prolly thought stupid, or weird,: when you fall for someone out of your ideal. He or She be the exemption. To me, it's really stupid to say "I want this, I want that" then falling for someone rather different. Boo you. You are just human, like them, like me. (But I'm not saying people should stop setting standards. Think, people. You don't have to settle for someone, uhm, unpleasing….)

Love works this way: you fall for each other stupid, then you grow together wise. You might do stupid things, but you learn. After some time, you might feel like, maybe, you're growing apart, but actually, you're just learning to handle things even when you're not physically together. You learn how to control each others feelings (not in a perverted manipulation, okay?). You become wise, and yet, you stay madly in-love. :)
