Being in Love Addicts

some people love being " in love"
are perpetually in love
their cars and houses sing of it

their pets and children
take a back seat as
they are all about this new
fresh never-had-before feeling

They exist and survive solely
on the unique emotion of being in love

Unfortunately, being-in-love stales, and
molds up, and puts itself into
a comfortable state eventually.

When this happens, and it always does,
being-in-love addicts have to
move on - find a new love because it is the
"this is all new and I love it" feeling of being
"in-love" that twirls their heart.

These hunters and gatherers are not yet ready for the "sit around the house next to your best friend, enjoying a big bowl of chili" kind of love. Breaking another's heart, is of no concern, either. They need their "fix".

So they return to the hunt, seeking another who
wants to be "in love". They usually find them too.
