And another 20secs (some more tbh) of courage was prolly when some friends and me were involved in a car accident, as someone was driving too fast into a curve and losing the control of her car, nearly crashing into our car, scratching a van behind us and doin a high roll into the fields (looked like a freakin matchbox-car doing a 2m jump). It is amazing, hoch much adrenalin rushes into your body and how clear everything suddenly is. telling the driver to stop, immediatly deciding who does the emergency call (as nobody was really that familiar with the area but one new a bit more) and then getting out of the car and fucking doin anew WR in running. http://www.feuerwehr-waldenbuch.de/einsaetze/einsatzbericht/1240 | ||

Come back in 10 years and chances are you have never been in love still. not sure if trolling or just 13... >.> Sometimes adults forget what it feels like to be a kid. Just because he is young doesn't mean that his feelings are any less valid or real. He could be confused, I'll admit it but he could also have really truely been in love. As we aren't him we can't see through his eyes so only he could ever know for sure. I'm married and have two kids with a girl that I was "in love with" when I was 11 years old and am still very much in love with. In my experience, younger people are more in touch with their emotions (i.e. love) because they haven't had years of experience hiding their emotions from a cynical world full of people like you who are telling him what they are really feeling. You know nothing about him other than his age and already you are an expert on his heart and emotions, enough so to know him effectively better than he does. WTF dude. | ||
