What Do You Do When You Fall In Love?

What do you do when you fall in love? Seems like a simple question, right? You meet someone, they make your heart skip a beat, and you like it. And you hate it, at the same time. Because when love finds you, it's never when you desperately NEED it to find you. It's always when you've given up and stopped looking. Or when it's terribly inconvenient and complicated. I'm not big on complication. I'd rather be in denial.
"Oh look!~There's a nice plot of undeveloped land, right on the banks of the river denial. I can stay here and build a nice little cottage and just dream my life away with him." or....

or

or what? leave? Can't do that. Tried that. Made me a wreck. Twice.
So that's out.

So what do you do when you fall in love with someone that you know you circumstances will never allow you to be with? You know what's worse? When it's mutual. Then it not only sucks, but it's tragic.

That's what happened to me. I was hanging out, minding my own business, and believing I was happy and content; When all of a sudden, out of the darkness, he came. Like a shaft of light into my dim world. Proving to me that I didn't know what happy was! Or that I hadn't been truly happy in so long, that I'd forgotten this feeling. I didn't expect him. I didn't expect that this person would end up being so important in my life. And now that's he's here I can't let him go.

So, I'll put the question out there to all of you. What do you do when you fall in love?
