Emotions overdrive (posted 1/21/07)

When we live our lives, doing things we do, going to work, getting off work, sometimes meeting friends for dim sum, movies, dinners, a few drinks here and there.... pretty much the normal live of a single guy, we lose touch with how we accomodate another person/entity in our lives.
Then, when *puff* someone shows up in front of you, you lose your balance, being spun into a downward spiral, COMPLETELY losing your composure. I ask myself... is it because you have not been dating for so long, so you get rusty? You're in one of your emotional roller coaster you get on and you're getting that queasy feeling again and want to get off? Or is it this person is really someone special that you're just falling head over heels?
When do you hold back and when do you go full throttle?
Are some of us more capable of controlling our emotions? Or is it an expectation that we build up so high, that it would ultimately crash down on us?
I need a peaceful mind, and I need a tranquil train of thought. Roller coasters are fun, bringing you to the top and spinning down to the bottom in lightning speed could have us end up with a queasy stomach. But then, we always want to line up again for the next best one.
But what if you want to stay on forever? Would the roller coaster ride turn into smooth sailing
