The Poetic Side of A Man’s Mind

If you’ve been through the revolving doors of a bad relationship or have settled because you could not bare the emotional exhaustion of doing it again, it’s time to ask yourself does true love really exist?

The Poetic Side of A Man’s Mind is about love and relationships. How to obtain them and keep them healthy, by overcoming emotional obstacles that can ruin a relationship.

This book will challenge you to look in the rearview mirror. As you discover yourself, you will experience the orgasm of life.

The Poetic Side of A Man’s Mind is an expression of poetry and psychologically designed to give you understanding. This information will help you decide if you’re even in the right relationship.

Now sit back as we take a ride on the highways of emotions that lead us to the poetic road to love, from a man’s mind.

Part 1

Love

Love

Love has to be one of the most controversial subjects I’ve ever discussed. I’m sure everyone has had a friend or someone you know who has said, I’m in Love, or said that someone loved them. Each time you heard this you probably thought, Here we go again. They’re not in love, or I don’t think that person loves them. You might even be the one who said, Yes I think they’re in love."

The reason most people have different opinions is because they believe there are different kinds of love. You have the famous in love, love for someone, and there’s just plain old love. Surprisingly psychologists also believe love has three dimensions. They refer to them as Intimacy, Passion, and Commitment. They also believe different combinations of these dimensions produce a different kind of love. Such as romantic love, which is full of passion and intimacy. Also compassionate love, which is most common for people that have been together for a long time. This is high on intimacy and commitment.

However, let’s first look at the dimensions. Take intimacy for instance. Intimacy has to do with how well two people communicate, or how well they understand each other, and gives emotional support. It also involves helping and really promoting the welfare of the other person.

Then there is passion. Passion is more than lovemaking and personal fulfillment. It is about nurturing and caring. Also, your willingness to give and satisfy the needs of your partner.

The last of the dimensions is commitment. This is a mature love, involving loyalty and building a life long partnership. Commitment stops us from giving up on a relationship during tough times when all dimensions are involved. It strengthens the relationship and turns it into a consummate love.

Consummate love is more of a long-term love. Like the love between two people that have been together for many years. This love would be different from the love between two dreamy-eyed teenagers. That’s more of a short-term love, or should we say, that kind of love inspires different emotions.

The short term effect of love is the beginning stage, which is a very intense and passionate time with a strong element of fantasy. A person becomes obsessed with his or her own ideas of the other person. The one you love tends to occupy your thoughts and you may spend a lot of time daydreaming. There is nothing wrong with this. In many cases this period represents a very happy time which is replaced by a deeper love that sets the stage for a long-term partnership. The problem is most people don’t want this time to end, and when it does they believe the love is gone.

Another love that has a strong effect is forbidden love. The time apart increases, the longing for the other, making feelings stronger. The longer they stay apart, the stronger the feeling. This is why some people say opposites attract, but the more time they spend together, the less they long for each other. This helps you to realize opposites only attract in magnets.

During this beginning stage everything about a person may seem exciting, funny, or even cute. For example, their little attitude, the way they complain in a baby’s voice and poke out their pretty lips, giving you a chance to soothe them with your charm. Creating that dreamy-eyed teenage passion over and over again. Over-time that pouting could become a frown and that beautiful baby voice could become a shout. This could become a very unpleasant time. How many times have you heard a person say jokingly, Oh, I can’t stand him? In the future that statement could become a reality.

The sensible thing to do is look for long term qualities. Love changes and different things become important. Such as, having similar values and beliefs, a willingness to change in response to the other person. Long term requires the ability to put up with the flaws of another. It is also good to have an equal intellectual level.

If you are in search of a long term relationship, physical attraction and love making should not be at the top of your list. I’m sure many people would not agree with me there, but trust me. If you find a person with a willingness to give, they can gradually become a romantic lover.

However a seeker of true love should be looking for someone with whom they can be intimate as well as passionate. Someone with a high regard for commitment, giving love time
