Rich/Famous ugly guys and pretty/young women

that's not love, that's infatuation i believe?

 

If you want to call 50-year marriages infatuation. :biggrin:

1/2 j/k

 

Ooh, ok. Well yea, i understand why u find it annoying. People who are happy in their relationships don't care what others think, they have each other to be happy with. So in the end u're the one who sounds bitter. I'm not saying u're wrong though.

I am single by choice too (well i do date a lot, but im not settling down). Only i do believe love exists. It happens and it's not a horrible thing. I was once passionately in love, and it did not involve any of the things u described (marriage, financial support, brats, etc), but it was true unconditional love. Alas it ended and hurt me enough that i don't feel like going that way anymore, but i still consider that it was the best feeling in the world.
I also know many many pple who said the exact same things u said, and then one day fell in love and realized they had been missing out.

 

You have conveniently edited out my quote to ignore the most important part of it, and gone on to make a straw argument. Do you see that?

*straw man*

 

Sorry, i didnt intentionally crop your quote in order to make a point. I saw that u said u had been in love with pple, while being single, and all that. It makes sense and i respect your "way of life". I only reacted to the fact that u seem to think relationships suck.

 

I think relationships can take many forms. Though, I do love "relationships" who suck. :biggrin:

 

alright, alright, we have come to an agreement.

 

LOL!!!! anyone who stays in an unhappy, loveless marriage for 50 years is just insane... infatuation is by definition, short-lived... unless one is psychopathic ofcourse... which counts me out... almost

quarter j/k :sunny:

 

Now, give me your number. :love:

 

Dude, you need to stop editing your posts all the time

That way they lose their double meaning. :sunny:

 

OCD, buddy.

 

i dont like the word ugly.ugly in who's eyes?beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

 

This underlines Cherea's point, in my eyes. People have no understanding of the words that they apply to their own jilted concept of relationships.

 

musty's not bitter.he's just smarter than most people.

 

Well said.

I don't know about smarter, I just have a different value system and a different way of considering people. And I most certainly am bitter.

 

you are definitely very smart.an i'm not just talking about academically speaking.thats just education. even though you are smart that way too.you have all the rest whats more important.emotional intelligence.that comes from a persons soul.not books.so you have the two combined together.a person could be the most educated person in the world an still have a clue bout whats the most important things.ya,you have values.ya,cant buy them.ya got them or ya dont.an no! unconditonal love never ends.thats why its called unconditional.its the only kinda love thats real. an your not bitter,thats just your satire.

 

The relationship ended, not the love.

 

lol god I hate that shit. I'm in a relationship for the first time in quite a long time and I'll be damned if I ever stop saying "I." We're two different fucking people...whats up with people that just mold into one person after a while? Ugh.

Ideally, a relationship should consist of two people who are secure enough in themselves and care enough about the other person to let them continue to do their own thing and be their own person.

 

exactly. i could'nt agree more.that tied at the hip thing is just co-dependency.very unhealthy.

 

that... or he is just an uncompromising asshole :mickey:
