We lost the "spark"

We've all heard it, some of you have even said it before. But in all actuality does anyone really know
what this so called "spark" feeling even is? Some people claim they just know when the person is the "one" because they feel instantly connected to that person. Is this when the spark comes into play? Do the two parties involved become some part of an interconnected fireworks show between their hearts?
 I think not. I think spark is yet another word created in the vocabulary of love to be used as an excuse when relations start to go sour. What the world is missing is bravery and courage to say how they're really feeling instead of ending things with "I still love you, we just lost the spark between us."

Best Friend Love

Ahhh my first entry in my love blog.
I'm sitting here supposed to be working on a project and ended up texting my best guy friend (whom I've dated before). We were best friends, in a relationship, back to best friends. Anyway, he made some smart comment so I sent him a text that said "I hate you" and he replied with "No you don't". So I sent back "Then how do I feel about you?" and he relplied with "best friend love". Which made me begin to wonder. Is it possible to truly love some one just as a friend? I know it seems logical to have strong caring feelings toward friends but is that really what we consider love? Or is it true, there really are different types of love and this "best friend love" is one of them? To me I understand 2 girl friends sharing this "best friend love" bond, because often times friendship can be more like a sisterhood. But when it comes to a guy/girl friendship in which they've previously dated I think that "best friend love" doesn't exist! It just doesnt seem right to have a guy telling me he loves me, as a best friend.
