45 Corny Things You Did While In Love That You Cringe At Now

Falling in love is like blacking out. It's like throwing back 15 tequila shots, waking up and vowing you'll never do that again.

We've all cringed at the disgusting, inappropriate and downright embarrassing sh*t we did when we thought we were on top of the world. We’ve all cried in the middle of the street, called someone 15 times and said all those things we can’t believe we said.

They say love makes you do crazy things, but it's hard to realize what those things are when you're in the heat of the moment.

Writing someone a love letter or quoting Coldplay seems like a natural thing to do, but those horrifying photos of you and your boyfriend trying to be romantic in front of the Rainforest Café six months after you've broken up and are longer speaking are a reminder of just how corny you were.

Like all those wild nights out you wish you could permanently forget, there’s a plethora of evidence to remind you that you were once out of your goddamn mind and high off that drug called love.

Those Facebook statuses with quotes from “The Notebook,” the matching onesies and the tattoo with her name that you changed to “Wino forever" -- they're all signs of the crazed person you once were -- the delusional, obsessive and completely blacked-out time in your life you remember like a bad party.

After you’ve woken up, groggy and light-headed, you can’t help but ask yourself, was it really love, or just a night gone wild?

Drunk on affection, attention and sex, we tend to lose our inhibitions and let another side of ourselves take hold -- a side our single selves would refuse to engage with.

We become those drunk assh*les in the street singing Journey. We’re obnoxious, inconsiderate and completely belligerent.

We’ve all jumped the gun, named our hypothetical children, picked out our honeymoon spot and written love letters to someone we would stop talking to in six weeks.

Whether it’s sh*t we did aloud, in our cloudy heads or when we were 16 and thought we were in love, we’ve cringed at the crazy love sh*t we did.
