decide to love? are u kidding me?


during shelter off of rain in nebraska
along the lines zooey tell jim that she decided to love him

is that line stupid or what? i never heard someone decide to fall in love. when u in love u in love. u know it long before u even think to decide for it.

No, she decided "THAT" she loves him. That is akin to "realizing" that she loves him, not the choice to love him.

Subtle, but important difference. Requires the kind of comprehension that they teach in high-school literature courses. You'll get there.

Exactly. She didn't weigh the pro's and con's and decide she loved him. What she means is that it eventually dawned on her that she loved him.

I think love is always a decision. It may not be a conscious decision but it is always a choice and a decision. And getting over someone is a choice too.
