lovin!

[Solkern]

Have you ever experianced true love, or what you think is true love? if so explain!
if not explain anyways!

[GSLeloo]

True love is... a puppy! A little puppy that just loves you so much and can't find anything wrong with you and is just so cute that you smile and giggle whenever you look at her. That's true love. Yep!

[Solkern]

Crack kills, you should quit....

[Betheny]

True love is like bacon.

You love it, you partake in it often, but eventually it clogs your arteries and kills you.

[Solkern]

Hahahaha

[Back]

Real love IS rare, but I am of the belief that its definately possibile. In fact, I'll go so far as to say people have more than one soul mate in life. Discuss.

I'll have to agree with Maimara.

[GSLeloo]

I think true love you can get from a pet. It's like.. a pet doesn't insult you or fight with you or call you fat or argue with you over what to watch on tv or something you said. They're perfect.

[Solkern]

I was in love twice...most recently, when i saw my biology teacher, i fell in love, But before that, I really did have it, and it was great, best feeling one could possibly have, but I fucked up royally ruined the relationship, and I miss it terribly.
Yet I still love her and always will, no matter where life takes me too.

What a sad state of affairs... the old axiom is true, its better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. Life would be boring otherwise so savor those moments!

[Solkern]

What's really bad about loving someone, is if it breaks off, every girl/guy after that you compare to, and it really fucks things up

[peam]

Not yet.

I have this horrible thing about wooing women until they sleep with me, and then I lose all interest. It's weird.

[Solkern]

damn slut!

[peam]

Pretty much.

Right now I'm in the game to bag as much as I can, while I can.

I'll probably be a swinger, later in life.

[Solkern]

I don't know I use to sleep around, but suddenly I can't do it, I just can't see my self having sex outside of a relationship. Think it's old age creeping up, or the need/want to settle down

[peam]

Swinger means both partners are involved in switching up.

I wouldn't cheat on anyone. I'm just not a man to be tied down, kind of like a cowboy.

[Solkern]

I haven't been in a serious relationship for over a year and a half, loved everything about it, and miss everything about it, i've had fuck buddies, dated, shit like that but nothing serious. hopefully again soon.

[Snapp]

Sleeping around gets old.. for me anyway, I'm more into relationships now.

[peam]

I'm sure I'll settle down eventually.

Even the toughest of cowboys fade away.

[Solkern]

That's exactly how I feel.

[Solkern]

Peam, I can see it already, your 90, on your death bed, and your like i got it! i got that feeling...the feeling to settle down!

[Edited on 9-19-2003 by Solkern]

[Ilvane]

I don't think I've been in love yet, really. I thought I was this last time around, but he basically didn't work out.

I guess I'll know when it hits me.

-A

[Solkern]

I think once one falls in love, one truely knows what love is like

[Edited on 9-19-2003 by Solkern]

Never been in a real relationship, so i have no idea. I think i love my mother though, but she can piss me off sometimes.

[Solkern]

It's an awesome feeling.

I saw some television show once, and there was a some person discussing how the dynamics of relationships have changed.

It used to be... you met, you fell in love, you got married, you had kids, you grew old, you died.

The person that was speaking was talking about how that's changed; instead of spending our life with one person, we now tend to have several meaningful relationships. I don't recall all the reasons she cited, but it has a lot to do with the empowerment of women, and the fact that people now tend to change drastically in their lives, not just when they are younger.

[SpunGirl]

I've had what I would consider two "great" loves.

One was the first guy I ever fell in love with. The cliche about never forgetting your first love, I think it's totally true. I'd definitely say I'm still in love with him, but it's the love I felt when I was 15 and 16.

Then my husband, of COURSE I love him, and it's totally different. It's a grown-up love, which has obvious advantages over puppy love, but some disadvantages too. First/puppy love, if it happens at the age it did to me, is carefree and totally without the intrusion of real life. That's what's attractive about it, and that's why it's never forgotten.

Don't know if that makes sense to anyone else.

-K

[Fabled]

Okay does the love have to be reciprocated or does being compulsively obessessed with someone count?

Just playin'

True love is the best feeling for sure, that is, until they fall out of love with you and your shiny happy little World comes crashing down in a burning ball of flame that permanently scars your emotions and effects every facet of your life and handicaps your ability to.... oops, sorry got a little carried away there.... Ahem

Love sucks!

[Solkern]

Love does suck, Sometimes you wish you can just kick it!

[Methais]

Here's a saying I heard once, not that it really pertains to this topic but it fits better than in any other one:

Women are sweet
And girls are honey
But beat your meat
And save your money

I can recall quite a few times in life where I wish I would have heeded those words :P

This is true for me as well.

I've seriously had thoughts of, "Maybe I can really love this girl" many times.

And then as soon as you finish romping, it's like,...

"Can I call you a cab?"

I've never thought about swinging though...

[Solkern]

I hate the feeling of one night stands, then in the morning your like...umm well hi

[SpunGirl]

I've never had a one-night stand. What's the shortest time anyone here has known someone before hitting the sheets?

-K

[Solkern]

few hours

[Methais]

<<What's the shortest time anyone here has known someone before hitting the sheets?>>

Uh, about 5 hours I'd say.

[Solkern]

And it wasnt really the sheets was the bathroom floor :)

[peam]

Less than three hours.

[SpunGirl]

ROFL. I'm positively prudish at three weeks!

-K

[Scott]

I don't believe in true love. I just don't believe there is just this special person out there that is meant for you and only you. I believe there are people out there who you like to be around, love to spend time with, and overall enjoy being around with that you can tolerate spending the rest of your life with them.

[SpunGirl]

"....that you can tolerate spending the rest of your life with them."

Sometimes it does come down to supreme acts of tolerance.

I think you can fall in love more than once. I was in love with someone once, and life didn't work out for us at the time, he had to move, and we both moved on. I have no idea how he feels for me now, but I have fond memories of him and would smile to hear from him again, but the relationship I have now is real now, and it's very, very good.

I don't buy the one soulmate theory, I think I could love a lot of different kinds of people (not at the same time) if circumstances happened that way. I'll be very happy if I'm still with my bf when I die, but if life goes off in a different direction, then I think I could love someone else after I took time to heal my heart and soul.

First date.
But I don't know if you'd consider it a one night stand since we've been in love and together for almost 10 years now.

[Betheny]

I'm on par with Peam... sadly...

bleh

I agree you can definately fall in love more than once. But I also think we all have more than one soulmate. Any two people in the world could live happily together if they really wanted to. Its about making the effort. Sometimes you get tired of things and don't want to do it anymore.

About the one night stand thing. Yeah, mark me down as a few hours on a few occasions. And the women who slept with me also.

I'll tell you what also... any woman who sleeps with me in that short of an amount of time I would never consider a serious relationship with.

Naw. I consider a one-night stand an instance where you sleep with a person you're not dating for the first and last time.

I've been intimate with people I wasn't in an exclusive relationship with, but since it happened more than once I wouldn't conisider it a one-night stand.

-K

[SpunGirl]

"I'll tell you what also... any woman who sleeps with me in that short of an amount of time I would never consider a serious relationship with."

This is precisely what women worry about. I'll give you an example. I was on a trip to Rocky Point with a bunch of friends, and I had gotten sort of friendly with one of the guys I'd never met before. We messed around the first night, and the next night when we were out his friend Steve goes, "So, are you going to give Tim some tonight or what?" And I said, "I'm not going to sleep with him, if that's what you mean." And he goes, "Yeah, Kristin, you're a good woman."

Phft. So by not giving it up I was a good woman.

-K, glad she doesn't have to date anymore.

[Back]

Phft. So by not giving it up I was a good woman.

Its true. Don't get me wrong, I'll try my hardest... every little trick I can think of, or any line I can come up with, to sleep with a woman as soon as possible. If I get it that night, I think of the girl as a fuck toy. If she makes me wait, I'll respect that and think about making it serious.

::shrugs:: It's just sort of the way it is. I would say women contribute to this double standard just as much if not MORE than men do. I don't think there's one girl here (except maybe HarmNone) that hasn't called another girl a slut, ho, or some other variation at some point. When we attack other girls for their sexual behavior, we're just as bad as the guys who judge them for it- yet we still do it. I do it, even when I'm aware of it.

-K

[Solkern]

Sintik, that line was as funny as it could get tolerate..i can see how your right, I can barely tolerate women now.

[Edited on 9-20-2003 by Solkern]

[SpunGirl]

The problem with "male sluts" is just that - you have to define that they're male, you can't just say "slut."

That and I've seen women forgive a man's overloaded sexual hisotry more quickly than a man would forgive it of a woman.

-K

[Artha]

True love is you not telling when I smack you, baby.

[Methais]

True love is bringing me another beer just as I'm finishing my current one and not even having to say "I need another beer!"

Ok maybe not but it's part of the equation :P

[Myshel]

Love at first sight = Lust at first sight

Love is a roller coaster, the first few months its that Lust factor, you think that no one can ever be that wonderful and amazing. Then one morning at breakfast he (or she) says something so incrediably stupid, your mouth drops open and the rose colored glasses come off. From then on out its a fine line between love and hate, respect and disgust. If your lucky you find a middle ground at sometime and learn to roll with it. Bad times will only make the good times wonderful, forgiving the small stuff and picking your battles.

Myshel

Thanks Myshel, now i think i'll never be able to committ. Its all your fault :P

[Myshel]

grin.. I'm only callin' it like I've lived it.

[Sweets]

All love to me is "true". I am a bit of a sap though. Everyone that touches my life be it friend, parent, relative, etc has my "true" love. Even if it changes, an ex-boyfriend for instance, they still have my love at some point. Yes, love has varing degrees but, to me, it's all true baby.
