Seduction by words

In relation to Missy Sun's earlier post, this is my 2 cents on this blog infatuation thingy. To me, a blog infatuation or crush as you may like to call it conjures up images of a secret love behaviour that often includes a lot of giggling and writing of little love notes. The excitement, secrecy and notes often starts with a slow seduction and in this case, through the power of words.

A girl can easily be swept off by words that can stir a range of emotions when she reads the blog. The powerful surge of words coupled perhaps with the blog persona, mystique or a certain photograph or comment can cause the heart to flutter. This fierce attraction, I mean the expert use of words, can give rise to a smile on her face or make her laugh and cry. It is not hard to be attracted to a person by the way he/she writes. It is a delicious yet sometimes a painful addiction.

The blogsphere is really a strange world, but what harm can it do if we indulge in a little blog crush for a little sensual pleasure of the mind? Afterall, how could anyone feel any attraction for a silhouette in the sand in the absence of any physical or visual effect?
