I Only Want An Old School Love

NickBulanovv

The internet has ruined many things that used to make love special. I miss the way love used to be spoken about, and written about. I only see it in old black and white movies now. I only see it in dusty, worn out photographs of my great grandparents. I don’t see old school love anymore. In fact, I’ve never truly have seen it or experienced it.

To me, old school love means treating people with respect and dignity. It means not taking advantage of someone on the first date. It means not even expecting a first kiss.

Old school love is patient and slow. It is never rushed to go to the finish line. It is never dirty.

I want a love that revolves around conversation. I want to talk to someone for hours on end, face to face, and to not have the distraction of a phone or a laptop. I want to laugh, until my stomach hurts, and make my date laugh even harder. I want that old school type of love that doesn’t need technology to fall in love. I want to find someone who just wants to simply converse with me. And I want to find someone who loves doing that too.

I want a love that is patient. I don’t want to date a guy who expects to sleep with me on the first date, or the third date. I want a love that recognizes respect as the foundation of a trusting and beautiful bond. I want to meet someone who doesn’t even ask. And who puts that in my hands without judgement or urgency. I want the old school kind of love that takes sex seriously.

I want a love that is honest.

I don’t want someone who doesn’t listen to what I have to say. I don’t want to date someone who only talks about herself. I want to meet someone who will let me know how she is feeling, when she is feeling. I need someone who will me the truth even if it is hard to do. And I want her to say it to my face instead of through a screen.

I don’t care about if she tags me in his “MCM” Instagram post. I don’t care if she professes her love to me on Twitter or Facebook. Truth be told, that means nothing to me.

I care about things happening in real time to real people. And I want to find someone who wants that too.

I want the kind of love that isn’t wrapped up in everybody else. With so many distractions in this world, it is so easy to forget about the most important things in life. I want someone who will silence her phone when she goes on a date with me. I want someone who will actually look at me when I talk to her. And I want the kind of love that is precious, because I know it is real.

Maybe at this day and age, it’s too much to ask for. And maybe it’s too much to hope for. But, I’ll keep on dreaming of a old school love. No matter what they all say.

What Makes A Conversation Interesting?

Maybe right now you’re thinking of speaking to someone you’re attracted to. Maybe you even have a date planned. But you just want to make sure you don’t run out of good things to talk about. That would be embarrassingly awkward, wouldn’t it? Imagine both of you sitting near each other. There is a sudden pause in the conversation, and you know that you should say something now, but your brain seems to have stopped working. All you can think of is some boring question or stupid comment, but nothing interesting or good enough to actually say out loud. You feel an awkward silenc e slowly descending like a dark cloud, and you start to panic inside. You feel like you’ve become a total idiot because your mind has become totally blank. It’s like you’ve lost your whole personality. You can barely even remember your own name at this point, let alone an appropriate thing to talk about. You’re not alone if you’ve been in this situation before. I certainly have, many times. And I can

10 Things That Hold More Importance In A Relationship Than Love

First thing you should know about me is that I'm a hopeless romantic. I swoon over couples holding hands in public, romantic comedies are my favourite movies and Nicholas Sparks books line the bookshelf in my apartment. So this next thing I'm about to say might come as a bit of a shock: I feel that the word "love" is used too much and often incorrectly in relationships today. Now hear me out for a second, saying "I love you" is important but it is more important to actually mean what you say. Love is also just as important as some of the values listed below. Am I cold-hearted? No. Maybe a little bitter? Possibly, but that does not change the fact that people today use the word "love" like it is any other word in the dictionary, such as pizza or Toronto, for example. Sometimes, we lose sight of what is really important because we think loving someone is the sole reason to be in a relationship, but it's not. Here are the val

Women Love The Chase

In my own experience, I’ve found that a woman will love a man more and find him more attractive if she has to chase the man and work hard to get his attention. The crazy thing about all this is that by ignoring women, you’ll make them more attracted to you. Now a lot of men have women around them who they don’t find that attractive, but these women end up falling head over heals in love with these men, all because these men ignored them and acted with indifference towards them. However, try ignoring your girlfriend if you find her incredibly sexy and attractive and it becomes really difficult to pull this off. You’re going to need balls of steel in this situation. Let’s imagine that you are really into your girlfriend. She’s beautiful and sexy and on top of that she’s a top quality woman—the kind of girl you could actually see yourself wanting to commit to. How do you maintain the attraction with a woman like this? The simple answer is that you have to treat her lik

Style Talk: How Has Men’s Fashion Taken a Paradigm Shift in Last One Decade?

The intensity of change in men’s fashion is far more than women’s fashion comparatively. It won’t be something new to say that fashion is not about what you wear, but how confidently you wear it! We are not talking about just clothes here, but also hairstyle, makeup, shoes, and other accessories. During the millennium year, the fashion of having spiky wet looking hair was too much in trend and it lasted for around 5 years. Even now, we can see many men flaunting this style just because it suits them and so they are least bothered to try out something much trendier Quick Look at the Historic Changes in Fashion World It’s said that fashion repeats itself in some years.

Are You Talking Enough? Should You Speak Up More?

Here’s a question I recently received from a reader: Once I’m with someone (even my friends) I always gets thoughts of “should we be talking more” and “am I talking enough” or “this is getting awkward”. How can I stop these thoughts from occurring? This is a great question. One of the biggest frustrations I used to have a couple years ago was being called quiet by people. It annoyed me so much whenever someone would say “Why are you so quiet?” But the truth is, back then, I definitely didn’t talk enough. I was too scared to speak up around people I didn’t know well … and often I just didn’t know what to say. My mind seemed to go blank. So there’s really 2 different answers to your question: You can stop viewing silences as being awkward, OR You can learn to talk more if you TRULY are too quiet. I’ll start with the first one… First, Is The Silence Really Awkward Or Is It In Your Head? Whether a silence is awkward or not often depends on WHO it happens with. S
