"you're nobody until somebody loves you"

"you're nobody until somebody loves you"

do you agree? why or why not?

edit: would you be perfectly fine growing old and dying alone?

 

I don't agree at all

everyone is someone by definition

 

bah, love yourself

I'm a loner.

 

No.
Because its like saying, if a tree falls down and theres no one there to hear it, did it make a sound?
Course it made a sound. The air and the atmosphere is all the same. Nothing different happens when you're there. Its not like as soon as people leave an area, it becomes deathly silent. Waiting for life again.

Just like even if no one loves you, you can still stir emotions. You can still achieve things. You still breathe, think, walk, talk, communicate, you can learn new skills, or forget old ones. Having someone by your side, friend or family, doesn't make you. You make you.

 

money is your friends friend

 

I find that a really stupid and dumb quote, so I totally disagree.

 

your somebody, just not loved at the moment.

 

woah!!

this black out moment broght to you by gatorade

and the church of jesus christ

 

would you all be perfectly fine growing old and dying alone?

 

I've been growing old for years, and I've already died twice. both times I was alone.
I prefer it this way.

 

1)Some people *are* nothing without their other half.( guys or girls)
Its like they're dead inside..

But its gotta be a mutual thing.And I'm an all or nothing type.

I can have "relationships" or "fun" at the moment.Its difficult to juggle too many different things- so I'm ..whatever happens ...in the v short term.

2)Growing old or being middle aged alone, to me , means someone has failed.
It must be terrible for em.

 

its a known fact that people who have a lover or live with a friend when they are old, they live longer than if they live by themselves and alone. also the suicide rate is the same, if not, high then the teenage rate because when older people loose a spouse, they believe its not the same so they become suicdal. so i believe your healthier or may become healthier if you are with someone and no. i would not be fine living by myself when im older.

 

i agree. you have to at the very least love yourself.

 

you're nobody until you love yourself maybe. i wouldn't want to grow old and die alone, but if that's the way it would happen, so be it. my family brings me happiness, so i would miss out on that happiness, but i'm sure i could find other ways to spend my time. i would embrace it at least. or try to.

 

I've seen people who've got some demons or other - drink or sthg else.
You ask "do you live with anyone"
They reply , with a flicker in their eye
"Yeah , I live with *myself*".

Some are really clever , witty , wealthy , likeable.
Its sooooo sad....

 

I don't base my happiness and or existence to revolve around other people, meaning I don't rely on other people to make me happy and content in life thus making me feel like somebody...
Having someone not love me doesn't make me any less of a person I guess...
What's love anyways, my cool new dog I am getting would love me, and that love is better than human love (pfft, no dirty thoughts please...pervs..)

 

Are you gonna train it to lick dogfood off your dick?
Ooops that slipped out , sorry better edit it:blush5:

 

please don't tell my fetishes to the forum...thanks...

 

Um I don't see how anyone could possibly believe this... You're somebody as soon as your born, and you can only grow as yourself until you die. Why would someone's love have anything to do with whether you are somebody or not?

 

you can't feel like you're somebody until you love yourself, that i believe. i've spent YEARS going from one relationship to another, believing if i get the right person to love me, i'll finally feel like somebody. but none of the relationships seemed to "do it" for me. then i met someone who helped me realize that until i love myself, i can't feel that completeness i've been looking for in someone else.

so no, i don't think we as humans NEED someone else to love us to feel complete. that being said, we are not all creatures of solitary natures. some do prefer to live solitary lives, and for those who do... more power to ya. i am not solitary by nature, and definitely prefer being with someone, sharing a home with them, creating a family unit. i guess i'm more "normal" than i ever let myself admit.
