hell no i could care less if that were to happen. im just wondering why people can believe in something like that. anything based so much on emotion, can not possibly be logical. emotions are very unstable.

I agree with you it is dangerous and not of sound mind to become totally dependant on your partner, just as it's not right to hold on to the parental strings after your child has grown. Or to still depend on your parents after you have fled the nest. It's not healthy but it's not love either. It's insecurity, obsession or just wrong as you said but that's not love.

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crêpe bows round the white necks of the public
doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.


He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.


The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Funeral Blues by W.H. Auden.

Someday you'll realize just how great it is to have someone watching your back; someone you can really trust.

Not that I've ever felt that way about a woman, but I do feel that way about my family. It would be...amazing...to meet a woman I trusted the way I trust my family.

They say love is what you find when you're not looking for it, so perhaps now that you know what it is you'll find it. I htink trust is something given when it is recived.

I always think that love is madness.

I always thought love was a true friendship with the absence of jealousy and an absolute trust...idk maybe its too idealistic.
