Tell it to Canadaguy! We're okay LittleBear!
If you were not so clanned-up already, Wildfire, I'd want you with us at In Vino Veritas, on account of the truth of your remarks.
I guess I'll have another bottle of vintage Port to calm down.

Hmmm... When I was younger I fell in love for sex. As I grew older and became mature I learned what love is. So I'd have to say I would rather have love than sex.
Besides, after sex, what are you going to do for the next 23 hours in the day? Sooner or later you have to click.
lol, in Grease it was 23 hours and 45 minutes, wasn't it?
Originally posted by LittleBearI have to agree with you, love with the right person is deeply moving. I would go for love every time, saying that simply kissing someone who you love can make your world spin faster.
How wrong are you! It's clear for me that you never fall in love. I have a sense of compassion for you.
Money can't buy me love. John and Paul.
Get a life guy. Or ask your sister for advice.
Hope this explains what things are like in love.
I love the feeling of lust and desire that runs through the veins as two bodies intermingle, like a couple of teenagers on a voyage of new passion. The heat that raises from your torso and tingles your cheeks as my wife cuddles up. The sense of unison and comfort when we are near. It's all good... 2nd round together 4 yrs and loving it.
Originally posted by LittleBearIts not one thing. Its just LIFE experience. Maybe I've never been around a successful relationship. I don't know. But evryone I know has messed up relationships. If they're not fighting or yelling at each other, thy're cheating on each other. Love turns men into stalkers and murderers. and there is nothing more pathetic then a guy crying over some chick that dumped them. The women are no better, turing into emotional wrecks, and allowing themselves be in abusive relationships because he says he's sorry and he'll never do it again. So forgive me if my eyes are open and I relise that no good can come of love or sex.
Never was my intention to ofend you.
But tell me why (if you want and don't care to make it public) what has happened in your life that you sound so disillusioned?
Love is marvellous. It is an unique experience in life.
Yes, it can hurt. My wife passed. But I'm proud she was besides me during those years. As we say in spanish: "yo estoy hecho".

Every single post you've put in this thread just makes you sound like a bitter, twisted moron with as much compassion as a dead fish. Yes, EVERYONE has had some bad experiences with love and relationships and yes there are many people in this world that have been and are being hurt by love. Doesn't mean EVERYONE should give up on love though, does it? Why not? Because it's called LEARNING you muppet. Did you give up the first time you fell off your bike, or stop cooking the first time you burnt a meal? Did you give up on reading because as a child you stuttered over you first few words?
You claim no good can come of love, you think it's worthless and I pity you for it. I dare you to tell that to the parents of a new born child as they hold it in their arms for the first time that love is worthless. Remember the people on the 9/11 flights that phoned their loved ones before the planes crashed? Go see the people they called, the friends and the families of the deceased, and ask them what the last words they were told on that day were. See if they value love in the same way you do. Go see the prisoners of war that were held captive for years but finally released. You think during their imprisonment they gave up on love? You think as their rescue plane touched down on the tarmac of their home country and they saw their friends and family waiting for them that they thought money was more important than love?
You spout all this negativity, throw in a few extreme examples of relationship abuse and stalking, and then claim your 'eyes are open' and that you know everything about love?! I won't 'forgive' you for it, I'll pity you for living with such a closed opinion of one of the greatest things in this world. 😠

To clarify. Kudos to anyone who is in a loving and commited relationship. I hope that after 80 years you can still looks at each other with the same puppy love that started it. may your relationship be an example to your children and inspire others out there. I wish the people around me had that kind of strenght. If more people were like that I'd have hope. Instead I AM a cold individual. I AM heartless. People who know me well may not agree to my selfanalysis. But in the end I make my decions with my head and not my heart. and i'm not feeling any love from you either. only hate . humanity is doomed

Emotions, like everything else, can work for good or ill. Bad emotions (among other things) prompt terrorist acts. But good emotions prompt better things, like fun, parties, altruism, etc.
Also, our rational faculties are as unreliable as our emotional ones. Prejudice involves twisted ideologies as well hatred. So the solution is not to eliminate emotion wholesale (rationalism) or to eliminate reason wholesale (romanticism). The solution is to promote the good of both, and inhibit the bad side of both.
Doing that is not easy. It may be impossible. And humanity may be doomed. (Presumably, it *eventually* is)
However, even if you don't feel it right now--and we all feel like that sometimes--life isn't as comprehensively grim as you paint. There are pockets of joy amid the more general misery, and the existence of the latter does not suffice to negate the former.
Moreover, sometimes something happens that unexpectedly lightens your heart, and restores your sense of value. I hope it happens to you.

To all those who'll never "forgive me" and "pity me " I don't hate you nor do i pity you. These things are unimportant. You can dis me all you want and it'll have no effect on me whatsoever. My life will continue as it always has.
