Absolutely. It's a great feeling, and I think that alot of people nowadays are relationship hopping because of that.

Yes. Sometimes it's hard to diferentiate between feeling love for another person and the feeling of being "in love". In my personal opinion I think the older you get and the more experience you have it gets easier to sort that out.

In the Steven Johnson book "Mind Wide Open", he discusses how there is neurochemical evidence that falling in love produces chemical changes in the brain very similar to those caused by ingesting cocaine or heroin. So, it naturally follows that one can get 'addicted' to the falling-in-love feeling. Lovebirds....this is your brain on drugs!...:-D.... . . .

Love is like dope... it gets you high. That feeling of falling love is one of the best feelings, and somehow, no matter how many times you get your heart broken, you still want to feel it over and over again.

Yes, that's basically what longing for another person is. When you become addicted to the feeling of love, that's where passion comes in as well. Passion is embracing that addiction to the feeling of love. Lust is the indulgence of that addiction. And its really just that simple.

Yes, I think you can. I don't, however, think that you can get any long term happiness from that.
