Do love really it about sex and all? : 3?

love is love and sex is sex


love is for someone u care and someone u wanted to protect and make such it safe and sound


but sex is something that our body needs....


so was it really love = sex and sex = love?


u do need love befor sex?


but is sex really needed after love?


what did u think about it? or as it too hard to understand?

Do love really it about sex and all? : 3?
Sex is always needed, my dear friend. But it is totally different when you have sex with someone you LOVE. It is more intimate and feels better.


Is to love an act of Will or not?

I mean here the love to a person or child. Can we through an act of Will access this love or is love automatically there?


For example, although I know I love my son, there might be times that I have to remind myself and get in touch with my love to him again. For example if I am very busy with work.


So is to love also an act of Will. Can we get away from love if we concentrate on other things instead on this love? How could this be in relationship situations?





Just curious what your thoughts could be about that.

Is to love an act of Will or not?
Yes and yes... you demonstrate both will and fate in your love... as far as maternal/paternal love is concerned I think that the most interesting perspective I have ever encountered is from All the Kings Men by Robert Penn Warren. It suggests that this type of love is another manifistation of the same impulse that allows people to justify (to themselves) abusing their own children. He suggests that a parent knows that he gave a piece of himself in creating that child and that s/he spends the rest of his life trying to get back that piece of himself... actually applied to real life situations, I think that this phylosophy makes perfect sense.





I also think that there are people you can't help but loving... Every year, I do Vacation Bible School, and there is one or two kids out of several hundred that stand out from the rest of them as delightful children... kids who can make a request and every other person there is willing to bend over backwards to accomodate them.... I think that the act of Will in regard to love occurs when you chose to love someone that is not someone that you would have a natural inclination to love... other than this, I think that most of what we call 'love' is a circumstanctial form of affection given to certain individuals based on elements beyond the control of all individuals whether it is relation by birth, natural beauty, or a sprightly (or subdued) personality...





In the course of daily living, I think that most of the choice involved in love is whether or not the love that inherently exists will be demonstrated or not...
Reply:To fall in love is the will of the God I serve. To remain in love is a choice.
Reply:Love is better to feel and experience than to analyze. Analysis has many useful purposes, but it takes you away from love.
Reply:I think you answered your own question. When you're busy at work....or, it could be anything else you're focused on. If you know you love your son, you don't have to access it all the time, do you? Your love doesn't "go away" when you're concentrating on something else. If, on the other hand, you feel out of touch for extended periods of time, that's another thing entirely. I didn't "read" that in your question. No, I don't think love is an act of will in any relationship. It's there or it isn't. %26amp; if it is there--you'll feel it when you're not busy with something else.
Reply:If feel that love itself is an impulse. It is a state where we tend to hold the wellbeing of another human being may that be a child, lover, sibling or friend over our own. Love is intrinsically irrational like faith so it cannot be an act of will. It is this selfless nature of love that is a common bond between all human cultures across the world.


A display of affection is an affirmation of the feeling of love. But the show of affection in itself is not a display of love. Human beings as we know are capable of pretending genuine affection when no real love exists. Sometimes our lives are so truly mixed up that we cannot distinguish true love from shows of affection. If often takes a crisis for a person's true feelings to be revealed.


Thus all I can say is that you do love your child but fear that your inability to show affection often enough may be construed as lack of love.


And with children it is necessary to show affection often enough to reassure them that you do actually love them though with older people more subtle signs may work.


A friend of mine grew up thinking that her mother never really loved her as mother had never given her enough obvious indications of her love. Yet when a true crisis confronted my friend her mother showed up and was there for her. A turning point that made my friend realize that her mother had always loved her but had no idea how to show her affection. Today mother and daughter are closer than they have ever been in their lives.





To conclude I would like to say that love itself is not an act of will. How you choose to show or hide your love is an act of will.
Reply:The act of falling in love or of feeling the maternal bond of love I don't believe to be an act of will.





To maintain these bonds does require the act of active will. It's what makes it so important in our lives.





When you have to pull from deep within yourself for the strength and determination to keep on the path which will lead back to that feeling of love with your son you are growing within and you are teaching him valuable lessons for his future.





Love is not all roses. And because we care so much for those we love the difficult times can be truly DIFFICULT! But when we emerge, we feel so much more capable and strong.


Is love made to be way more complicated than it ought to be?

It's weird. I have always been in the mindset that you either love someone, or you don't. I don't understand all this "I love you, but I'm not IN love with you" and all that nonsense. I also have trouble with the way people read into when and how and why someone says "I love you". Isn't there too little of it in the world to get into the elitism of who we can love and when we can love them? Should it really be that hard that we set a timetable "Well, you can't love someone you've only known for a few weeks/never met...." I hear that a lot too.





[As a new sister(and sister in law), I can say that's definitely not true.]








Sorry if that's a little confusing. I think it's all a load of bull.

Is love made to be way more complicated than it ought to be?
Put Universal Pants' and Furious Blue's answers together, and you should have a pretty good answer to your question :)





Like he said, you have varying degrees of love for many special people in your life. You have friends that you love, but you aren't interested in them romantically. Then you have friends that you ARE considering a romantic relationship with. You have love for your parents and siblings, and I should hope you aren't thinking of a romantic relationship with them......lol That is a different kind of love than the love you have for your friends.








The "I love you, but I'm not IN love with you" is not nonsense. Just some people can't seem to quite grasp the concept that you can love someone without actually being IN love with them. I have met a few of you guys........lol ;)





I believe you can love someone you have never met, or known for only a short amount of time.
Reply:Love is not all-or-nothing... there are many degrees of love... the "I'm not IN love with you" part means they love you, but not romantically...which is completely separate from the "more intimate" part....





How I love my children is different than how I love my parents. How I love my siblings is different than how I love my friends. There are too many facets to count... whatever love there is, accept it for what it is...





Our love for our partner is the most unique and the area where we get our hearts broken the most...
Reply:You are right. God is Love. Why do we forget this?


I try to be a good person and love thy neighbor, but with the increasing hate in the world it is really hard.


Why can't we change that?


Love is not complicated. Relationships are. Wait until you have difficult children. :)
Reply:Love is very simple. Make a choice to love. It is easiesr to love than hate.
Reply:Wow, I have the same idea about love.....I can't control it or say oh it is just a crush or lust and ignore being attached to someone! It comes by intuition and I can love loads.





Love is one and multiple! and No it is not bullshit!

Universal and Furious B, great answers.
Reply:I think there is definitely a difference between loving someone and being IN love with someone. I love my mom, but thank g-d, I am not in love with her.
Reply:English doesn't have sufficient nuances for describing the multitude of emotions, commitments, biological urges, and pleasures associated with the many facets of "love."

Reply:If love was easy, we wouldn't value it as much.
Reply:The short and easy answer to a complicated question is "yes", it is we who put limitations , and boundaries on love.





We would do well to learn from children upon the playground.
Reply:I think the whole "I love you but I'm not in love with you" thing is kind of a cop out. It's like a way of just saying that while you like someone a lot and care about them and all, you're just not in love with them.


As for the not being able to love someone you've only met recently, well that one I kind of agree with, to a point. There's different types of love. There's the love of a father who sees his child for the first time. In this case it's totally love at first sight. Romantic love on the other hand, that's a little different. There's all the initial feelings of infatuation, the butterflies in your stomach feel like love, but I'm not really sure that it's the real deal. I think to truly be in love with someone you have to really know that person's ins %26amp; outs. You have to have a mutual trust and understanding. It's hard work sometimes. It has to be 2 sided otherwise it's really more of a crush.


Anyways, hope this helped!!!

We have a lot to learn about love.
Reply:love is something comes to our hearts without our well..........yet there are some acts and steps can help in bringing it.


you are worrying not to get certain love.................thats what make things unsettled .
Reply:After my last girlfriend, I'd have to say a definite yes.
Reply:so this is how you're going to do it????





in front of everyone else, you gonna tell me now, after all that we've been through, that you ain't 'IN' love with me???
Reply:why not put it this way: there are different kinds of love. romantic, parental, and so on.





God is love. just don't confuse this with love is god.
Reply:So far I cannot find a person who has been able to define love and it mean the same thing to another person.


It is totally possible to love a person that you have not seen face to face and it is possible to love different people in different ways. Anyone who is a parent knows this. The most pure love that can be experienced is the love a child has for a parent and vice versa.


and for the record REAL (ie romantic) love is totally complicated...
Reply:Life is complicated!








(If it was easy, it wouldn't be special.)
Reply:There is a difference between being IN love with someone and loving someone. For example my mom and dad are divorced...She still loves him as a person and as a friend but she is not IN love with him. She would not want to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him but she loves him as a person, a friend, and the father of her child. I don't think you can say that there are not different parts of love. In the Greek language Love has 4 different parts: Eros: which is passion and attraction, Storage: which is love for family members, Philia: which is brotherly love (such as between friends), and finally the highest form Agape: which is unconditional love for anyone no matter their flaws or problems. An example of Agape Love would be Mother Theresa.





The word love is used to loosely in the English language.
Reply:You can love everybody like a friend, then their is family love, and then there is love between a man and a women(preferably a returned missionary and a temple worthy women) Love is the key to life and Jesus loved everybody.

Love others first or love self first?

As a follow up from a previous question, the answers are divided on which comes first. (Not counting those who think self love is masterbation. Hehe.)





How can you give to others something that you don't have yourself? Self love is self acceptance. How could you accept a quality in others that you judge harshly in yourself? If you explore yourself deeply, you'll find that everything outside of yourself that you judge is a reflection of something you are rejecting within. This is how you recognize it in others. As the saying goes, "It takes one to know one."





If you find something distasteful in another, look within and you'll find it there. Accept absolutely everything about yourself, and you will find no fault in other. Love and compassion are found within and spontaneously expressed. Everything begins within as a quality of being. Don't do love, BE LOVE.





Wadayathink?

Love others first or love self first?
Everything reflects outwardly.


What is seen within man is seen on the periphery of man.


If there is no "Love" within man then "Love" cannot be seen outside of man.


"Love" must manifest within and man will emanate "Love" into the world of man. Then one will have "Love" for all living creatures. All other living creatures will recognize this quality within man.


Man will then be in the state of "Unity".

Love others first or love self first?


whats the difference...:) there is only one self, if you love other(unconditionaly) you will return back to your self.love means one has love towards one's own Self. The experience of Self is only love, which is seeing only love, hearing only love, feeling only love, tasting only love and smelling only love, which is bliss

Reply:An early teacher of mine once said that "Love is reflected in love". I've always liked that. It says something I have always felt to be true. In many ways, I have 'been that'.





In my life, I have been fortunate enough to know a lot of love. My children, husband, friends.





One time, I purposely watched acts of affection/love at the airport. People smiling, opening doors for strangers, wildly happy to see loved ones arrive. A woman lost her keys and everybody jumped in to help her find them. Little things, but meaningful. It seemed that love filled the air...it was subtle, but there.





We seem to have love residing 'within' us. The confidence to show it comes from having been shown love.





It's true to "be love" is a wonder
Reply:Loving-kindness is something that should be extended to all beings, without exception. This would include people who we may consider neutral but also those who do us harm. This aspect of Buddhism is very challenging as it is often quite natural for us to dislike or feel angry towards those that do us harm. There is no doubt that loving kindness is something that we have to work on continually.Loving-kindness meditation is one way to develop this quality more extensively. The method is simple and when applied consistently is also very effective. First one generates feelings of loving kindness to oneself; then to a friend or relative; next to a neutral person and then finally to someone you feel angry towards. In this way feelings of hostility are washed away and the destructive energy that has been directed towards the person in mind can be be redirected down more positive channels. Compassion and Lovingkindness complement each other. They are antidotes to impatience, hatred, selfish desires and cruelty. The aim in Buddhism is to have these two qualities underpinning all our thoughts and actions. It is in this way that we develop a proper attitude to others and the world around us.

Hi ladies,what is love to you?

Love is like an ocean,


so very deep,yet very full.


love is when I give you a rose,


the bubbling inside of you.


love is when I see your smile,


the way it makes me feel inside.


Love is when I hold your hand,


I can never get enough.


Love is when I see your eyes,your hair,


the way I see you walk.


Love is when I hear your voice,


my love starts to talk.


I guess i could say love is you,


and everything about you girl.


Because each time I'm near you,


my soul is so alive.





That is love to me.What is love to you ladies.

Hi ladies,what is love to you?
love is waking up every morning with a huge smile because youre thinking about that one special guy youve got to yourself. Love is being able to know what eachother is thinking without actually having to say it. Love is that feeling you get everytime you see that person, you know when you kinda get buterflies and this huge smile on your face just seeing them? Love is when you are sick and your guy brings you flowers,makes you soup and calls you every 5 minutes to say how much he misses you and see how youre doing.Love is basically the best thing you can ever have..these are my two absolute favorite love quotes.








Sometimes you have to put up walls;


not to keep people out


but to see who cares enough


about you to break them down








Being with you makes me feel like for once in my life I don't have to work so hard on being happy, it just happens.

Reply:thats pretty. love to me is the feeling i feel about another guy. i cant really explain it.
Reply:"It is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all" I believe Shakespeare was onto something when he wrote this. Love isn't something you should be able to fully descrbe to someone because then it isn't love, it is whatever you said. Do ya understand what I mean? If someone says love is just a emotion, they have yet to feel it.
Reply:Love to me feels like a tingly sensation to me, where you fall in love with that person you want to be with forever and they make you extrememly happy and they accpet you for who you are and its what makes the world goes around1
Reply:I think love is a selfless act that profits both sides. it's when you're sick and they just want to be with you hoping to catch the same thing so you can continue to be together. it's when you're cuddling and you never want to release no matter how burnt the popcorn will be. it's when you're in the most perfect place and the only thing you want to do is go back to the stupid job he has because you know that you'll be able to see him again.

Reply:that was very pretty. i liked it. i think love is a very strong feeling for somone and u have never felt that feeling for anyone before except that one person. love is u like the person for who they r and would change a thing about them. u will do anything for them.
Reply:"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

A peom i wrote called "love is pain" please read?

From the foot steps it took me to get outIt took just as much and more to get back in.You didnt love me.You loved to hurt me.You didnt love my soul.You only loved to devoure it.Not my heart.But only to crush it in your hands.You didnt love the sweet nothings you told me.But the lies you spuewed in my ears.And yet i fell in love with thoes lies.The 'lie' in your eyes. The 'lie' in your touch.The 'lie' in your kiss.I loved the lie you made me believe was true.You told me that love is pain.That love will always happen and that the pain with it will always be there.That it will always be ther no matter what.And that it will always crush me.I hated your idea of love.Because it was true.


I couldnt handle your love.So it crushed me.My heart and soul smashed into pieces.That will cutt deep into your skin.Into your crooked fingers so you cant throw me away like you did some many other.So you will always feel that pain.So the pain of love will always linger and so you will know.

What's the difference between "puppy love" and real love?

I've been looking around a lot and I've noticed that a lot of the time when someone young thinks they're in love, most people dismiss it as "puppy love".


So what's the difference between this "puppy love" and real love?


How old do you have to be before you're told that what you feel is more than just "puppy love"?


Why is it that it's only when people are young that they're told their feelings aren't real?


Why do you think that people under whatever age you picked cannot experience true love but only "puppy love"?





Of course, you can replace "puppy love" with whatever term you choose but the questions are still the same.





Before any of you start saying that I'm a young person trying to justify my puppy love, I'm 19 with the maturity of about a 25 year old and I'm pretty sure I'm not in love with anyone. This is just a question I felt I had to ask because I've seen too many people just brush a question about love or relationships off with "you're too young to know what love is".

What's the difference between "puppy love" and real love?
I suppose that puppy love would be attributed to a crush or perhaps a first time experience with these types of feelings.





As life goes on and experience is gained your definitions tend to get reshaped.





Being happy is what matters most.


Good luck. M39
Reply:I know this is ridiculous but I'm only 13 and I know that I'm in love. puppy love is when you are like really really friendly friends. Actually love is when you can't get that person out of your head and he/she is the only one you want to talk to. I being so young have had a lot of confusing emotional stuff that I don't talk to any one about. When it becomes so unbearable I ask questions. The thing that bothers me though is that every one says 'you're too young' or 'don't worry about that yet, your not mature enough'. Even though I'm still young I can't control my heart. Trust me. I've tried to. So remember. Puppy love~ you're infatuated with them True Love~You deeply care about them and would do anything to make them happy.
Reply:Puppy love is a somewhat derogatory term that is used only with younger people. However, people of all ages can experience a similar type of "love". Most true love even begins this way. For people of all ages it can be described as infatuation. This is the type of love that is often portrayed in romantic movies/plays. True love occurs after a longer time of knowing someone, with more depth. It isn't as exciting, but it is wonderful. You have to truly know yourself and the other person to be truly in love. It takes time and work to develop. I am 22 years old and I am in love with my boyfriend of two years. In the beginning, it was infatuation. That was great, but our relationship has progressed. It isn't as whimsical, but we love eachother for who we really are.
Reply:Teenagers tend to changed once they start standing on their own feet and face the world with all the responsibilities on their shoulders. It changes your view of life and the way you view relationships in most cases. When people move up in their 20's they start looking for different things in a partner.





I believe it depends very much on how a person is brought up and at 19 you may very well already be stable in the way you feel about relationships.





Puppy love is mostly when you fall head over heels for someone you are physically attracted to who has some cool skills like perhaps being able to draw beautiful pictures or dance really cool. When you're a young teenager you're more prone to dating guys who are gorgeous and sexy, but when you become more mature you tend to be a little less focused on outlook and more to characteristics, what job your partner has ect.





When I was 19 I was already aware of what I want and I was also told that my interests will change when in fact I was already mature enough.


The best way to handle it is just to stand at what you believe and ignore people who tell you that it's only puppy love, because society looks through the eyes of stereotypes and not all people fall under stereotypes.





Basically Puppy Love is based on physical attraction and to attraction to someone you think is super cool.


Real love is when you are prepared to make sacrifices for someone, to make a few changes in your life to fit sharing your life with that person and someone you can see sharing your future with. And when you are prepared to accept that the person you are with is not perfect and can make mistakes and prepared to forgive them for the sake of staying happily together.
Reply:Puppy love is like infatuation. You're just enamored with the person, and think this is it! Dr. Dobson, the great Christian family counselor says the difference between infatuation and true love is TIME. Take time, make time to get to know this person. Age doesn't have anything to do with this. Teens who begin dating in high school, get to know every aspect of their bf/gf's make-up can enjoy successful relationships or marriages because of the TIME. Dr. Dobson also says "Don't settle for someone you can live with, wait for the one you can't live without."
Reply:I'm in the same situation I'm 19 my bf just turned 26,, We've been togthere over a year.. N now i feel like its"puppy love" this whole time cuz my eyes seen to wonder now and I feel like Im intersted in someone else.. I want my cake and eat it to .... if i can get a brreak and then if we come back to each other then its meant to be ........ but the difference is puppy love your infauted with someone and the other is you cant leave with out the other
Reply:The difference between "puppy love" and "real love" is usually the difference between lust and love. Lust is what happens when you first meet someone and want to be around that person and touch that person and hold that person all the time. Love is a commitment two people make to one another after the lust phase has run its course. Not to say that it will end in a good relationship. It's a healthy part of love and you should fight like hell to keep it alive if you want the love to last. Nineteen is not to young to understand what love is if you are mature. Don't be in too big of a rush though and be true to yourself. Take the time to become really good friends with someone along with the relationship. Find someone who is honest and that you can be comfortable enough with to communicate well with and time will tell if you have found love.....................
Reply:puppy love like you can get over him but real love you want to spend your holl lift with him

The word "love"?

Is it just me or is the word love used loosely these days? My new girlfriend tells me she loves me, and I like her a lot but I know I don't love her. I've experienced love before and this is my first relationship since that love.





I also noticed my friend got a new boyfriend and she says she loves him.





I always thought of love to be something very special and way down the path.





Isn't love a more valuable word than this or am I wrong and have just been out of the dating world too long?

The word "love"?
Yeah it is. I dated my girlfriend for a really long time before I said it. I don't think people know what love is b/c if they did they wouldn't throw the word around like they do.
Reply:I'm with you, love is used too loosely. My botfriend and I were infatuated with eachother, but it took us over a year before we said we love eachother. Lots of people say they love a person when they only love something about the person, like how they appease their every whim. Carefull with that one bud, the old adage goes, "there's a fine line between love and hate." If she's that quick to love, she could be that quick to turn.
Reply:Love is usually used when people mean "I really like you at the moment."
Reply:omg i no! .. my ex bf always says he loves me. and im like sure u do..but hey maybe ur gf does actualy loves u never no :]
Reply:some people mistake love for new-relationship infatuation. i'm a total cynic but a true romantic, typical girl who is dying to be swept off my feet but i'm not going to tell someone i love them for a long time until i'm certain that it's going to work out. HOWEVER, my best friend met a guy and less than a month later, loved him, he moved in and they've been together seven months and are getting married at the end of the month. so i guess it just depends on the two people in the relationship.
Reply:Love is something special. GF's and BF's rarely say I Love You and mean it. I went through that crap. What I felt was real but it wasnt mutual. Yes it is a word used loosely. At least though, you are true to your feelings. I commend you on that.

Reply:It is so true the word uses love very loosely... i LOVE my new sweater, I LOVE your car. Thats just the way that the world works these days. Then theres the i luv ya which is different than i love you in my opinion. If you dont understand love you cant possibly give it. If shes saying she loves you already she doesnt really know what love is. Sorry. I am engaged to a wonderful man we are so in love i hope you find LOVE real love someday.


Love or Like?

never leave the one you [LOVE]


for the one you (LIKE)





because the one you LIKE will leave you


for the one they LOVE





the one you LIKE will give you goosebumps;


the one you LOVE will make you laugh


and send shivers down your spine.





When the one you LIKE cries, you feel sorry for them;


but when the one you LOVE cries, you cry for them.

God does not love you?

Let's assume, for a moment, that there is a God. We may not know the nature of God, or


which religion comes closest to the truth, but we can be sure of one thing:





God does not love you.





Look at all the cruelty and misery in the world, which God does nothing to stop. Right now,


as you are reading this, there are children in various places around the world being raped


and tortured. Most of us would risk our lives, give up our lives, to save them if we could.


God stands by and does nothing. God has abandoned these children, and clearly does not


love them. God does not love you, either.





There are some religions which claim that "God's love is a different kind of love", which is


supposed to explain and justify what appears to be God's divine indifference. This is total


bullshit. If I claim that I love my neighbor, and then set his house on fire and shoot him in


the head, anyone can see that my "love" is not love at all.





Another fallacy along these lines is the statement that, "God doesn't give us more than we


can handle in life". This is a ridiculous statement. Go to a mental institution, go to the ward


for those who are seriously disturbed, and you'll see people who just sit and rock back and


forth all day, staring off into space, or screaming at nonexistant terrors. God has given


them more than they could handle, and now they're totally broken.





So you have no loving God watching over you, making sure you get what you need. You


don't get what you need in life, you don't get what you want, you don't get what you


deserve. You get what you get.

God does not love you?
Okay, well lets look at this from a purely selfish humanistic point of view.





People who believe in G-d have stronger marriages.


http://www.heritage.org/Research/Religio...





Live longer healthier lives:


“Several new studies find the religiosity-longevity correlation among men alone, and even more strongly among women. 8 One study that followed 5,286 Californians over twenty-eight years found frequent religious attendees 36 percent less likely to have died in any year after controlling for age, gender, ethnicity, and education. Another followed 3,968 elderly North Carolinians for six years. It found that 23 percent of those attending religious services at least weekly had died, as had 37 percent of infrequent attendees.9 A "National Health Interview Survey" followed 21, 204 people over eight years. After controlling for age, sex, race, and region, nonattendees were 1.87 times more likely to have died than were those attending more than weekly.10 This translated into a life expectancy at age twenty of eighty-three years for frequent attendees and seventy-five years for infrequent attendees.”





Religious attendance and life expectancy: In a national health survey financed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, religiously active people had longer life expectancies.





And are happier and generally better able to cope with significant life events:


http://www.allfreeessays.net/student/Do_...





Finally and most importantly when you consider the horror that you feel rightly this world has become. Christians and Jewish believers are responsible for the majority of philanthropy and active relief of the ills that plague the world. Note: 80/1 in volunteerism, charitable giving, and pure lives work compared to secular humanists and the non-religious.





If you are an intelligent human being who listens to rational intelligent information from leading scholars and scientists, then I am afraid you would have to conclude that faith in G-d and a relationship with Him is in you very best interest.





If all else...even if there is no G-d...What have you got to lose. Living a long, healthy, happy, righteous life and well then you die and surprise...no afterlife...no creator...no G-d.





But you have had a long, healthy, happy life so no harm done right?





On the other hand: live like there is no G-d. And then what if you are wrong...and eternity of hell?





Seems to me that just from this argument alone the smarter more reasonable man would opt for the former choice. Oh and He does love you! Just like a good parent who gives their child the rules to live a good life yet cannot, and indeed will not deny their grown child’s right to make the wrong choices. Choices, and the right to make them is the most valid proof of G-ds love.





Shalom

Reply:God has left us in charge of this earth. I still stand behind if every, every, every single head bowed in prayer to Jesus, ALL sickness, evils, transgressions, hates, wars, ALL would go away. That is how He has left us in charge with the knowledge that this is all we need do, but many many too many do not and will not see this. It is a very sad world, but whose fault is it? Not God's. And yes, I do have everything I need, want and deserve. I love Him with all my heart and soul and to Him goes the glory for everything in my life. All you need do is ask. Tells you how...well, you know where.
Reply:Now THAT sounds more like a God that I could actually admire. Largely indifferent, like Crom. Not this "He'll punish you if you don't accept his love" egomaniac Jehovah.
Reply:Justin, I have read many of your questions, I believe I am viewing a great intellect. I would hope as time goes by you will find a way to use that intellect for the benefit of mankind.


Just an observation I hope you will consider. You are very cynical in you observations. This may be due to the fact that you are still young. I would hope that as time goes by you will develop a more optimistic view.


Remember the truly intelligent person find solutions to problems, they observe.


As for this question. I would suggest that no matter how great my love is for my child, if they refuse to follow my instructions, then by the "free will", they will have to suffer the consequences, and deal with the reality they have created.

Reply:All right,we get it. You are only familiar with one religion and you dislike it. Thank you.
Reply:Maybe the whole point is to see what we actually in regard to such cruelties you mention.





And we can actually help those people who are in need if we really wanted to, but in reality we are too selfish to do so. There are people who give their time though. So not everyone is selfish, but we do tend to look after ourselves first.





Telling the world about the bad things that happen is something completely different than literally getting out and trying to change the world.





If you don't believe there is a God, much less one that loves us, that's your roll.
Reply:You are right on the money but God worshipers will always look the other way when it comes to these horrors(turn the other cheek ,so to say). When surviving something horrendous they always say it was "a miracle" and all I can think of is it would of been a miracle if whatever happened would have been prevented in the first place. Talk about lost souls. These people act like they can't even think for themselves sometimes.
Reply:Justin you are too cynical for a 16 year old.





I hope that you find a higher purpose in your life!


It would save you from a life of bitterness and anguish.
Reply:God does love us. Yes He allows these things to happen and we may not fully understand it all. These people will be punished. God doesn't allow things to happen and go unpunished. We may not see their punishment now but they will be punished. God created this world to be perfect and Satan deceived man and now we are having to live in it. In the end God will win. I don't fully understand why bad things happen to good people but it does. The bible says that the rain will fall on the just and the unjust and the sun will shine on the just and the unjust. God is in control. His will will be done.





Jesus suffered more than anybody. He was beaten, mocked, criticized and He done it all for us. God doesn't put more on us than we can handle. Sometimes it may seem like it but we always get through it. We will endure hard times on this earth, but if we know Jesus as our Lord and Savior than one day it will all be worth it.
Reply:BRAVO!!!someone finally got it...
Reply:obviously these are signs of judgment day. I mean looks at the holy scriptures.
Reply:How do you want us to answer this statement? We don't love you? we won't pray for you? we won't wish you to know the word of God? I'm sorry you believe these things. The cruelty and hatred in this world is created and born along by people who want to take God and His love out of this world.


Can Love be: Heaven on Earth?

Is this Heaven on Earth?





Heaven on Earth


By Mike McCracken





When I’m feeling empty


I fill it with your love


When I’m feeling lonely


You’re the one I dream of





The Earth is full of people


Who need a little love too


I’ll just keep this simple


I love you





(chorus)


I wonder if you miss me


Sometimes, I think out loud


And I know how to be lonely


In a crowd


Sometimes, I get to thinking


What love’s really worth


What it really means


To have Heaven on Earth





I’ll work my whole life through


To buy you pretty things


And I’ll always love you


No matter what it means





Sometimes, I dream you’re with me


And realize it’s not true


Then realize, I’m only


A dream away from you





For love’s the greatest treasure


That any man can give


And with you I’m sure


Is the only way to live.





Can a heart really love this way? I believe it can.

Please critique this love poem.?

I wrote this a while back for a girl who trashed my heart. Please tell me what you think of this peice. Enjoy.





My Executioner





I’m slowly dieing,


my grave is dug.


You harshly condemned me


my first true love.





You tore my heart,


left it in shreds;


While knowing I loved you


with everything.





You took my hand,


fulfilled my dream.


You made me feel,


sweet things, my queen.





I gave you love


not thinking twice.


I gave you all of me,


Heart %26amp; Mind.





You kindly took it,


or so it seemed.


Next thing I new,


you killed my dreams





You left me there bleeding,


barely alive.


While you were off kissing


some other guy.





You tell me you love him


You know it’s a lie.


You try to believe it


to feel good inside.





And meanwhile I lay here,


drowning in tears.


For I will still love you


for many more years.





And then I start wondering


if you’d even cry.


If I were to somehow,


mysteriously die.





Would you even remember me,


would you even care.


Or would you forget me,


great moments we shared.





And would you remember


the love that I gave.


The love that you squandered,


that you threw away.





Or would you then value


that deep, pure, white love.


And how I still loved you,


till breath left my lungs.





You saved me from drowning


for that I am glad.


But then you condemned me


my princess, my downfall,


……..My Executioner..……

Please critique this love poem.?
It's very deep and well-written. However, I hope you didn't give it to her, because she might think you've lost it....But it must have been therapeutic to write.


You're a great writer. I hope whoever comes into your life next gets some (more positive) poems from you!
Reply:A couple of nitpicks:

What is love and how do you know when a man hoestly loves you?

Here's the situation. I have not had the best examples or demonstrations of what looks like, feels like, should be like. I only know the love that I have for my children and what that is like but when it comes to relationships between to adults I can't honestly say I can assoiciate it with one feeling or the other. I can characterize how I feel and "think" its love and I am good at expressing,demonstrating, giving, and feeling of being in love Honestly, from my experiences, I can not say, that I have ever felt truly loved by a man. I don't know what it is like. Since my past consist of a dysfunctional type of love an unhealthy love, I seem to continue in those type of relationships because I have no comparison to what the real thing feels like. I am trying to break a cycle but would like some quidance on what I should recognize as real love. As you quessed I didn't have much of a family structure nor father to help with this, so Im searching to figure things.

What is love and how do you know when a man hoestly loves you?
Real love, when a man really loves you he is gentle with you. Kind, supportive, caring. He listens to you and understands you. For the most part he is non judgemental. He wants to make you happy, make you feel safe and cared for. He will tell you his dreams, his fears and listen to yours. You can tell he really listens and he loves you. Also you 2 will understand eachothers sense of humor and share a bond. He will respect you and make you feel accepted.
Reply:Love is kind, patient, giving, and loyal. If you are not used to feeling it, you can still practice living it. Love is a verb, not just an emotion. That means that by observing, you may be able to discern if someone loves you. The best advice I can give is to watch what someone does more than listen to what they tell you. It takes practice and you might not appreciate or recognize it at first, but when you truly love yourself enough to treat yourself well, you will choose people who love you. Good luck! If you can't decide if you are being loved, think of how you would like your children to be loved. Don't settle for anything less for yourself.
Reply:god is love. to human, it is a feeling hard to describe. when the time you give someone care, good attention, affection that's some wayy of showing love.but love is when you cannot identify that kind of feeling ..it is a feeling that comes from your heart, not from your mind.


you will know a man honestly loves you, when your instinct says it.
Reply:I had a great family relationship growing up. We went to church everytime the doors opened pratically. When I met my husband I had never even dated before and I was scared to death! When he kissed me it was alright. Which I really didn't have anything to compare it to.My married life was the flip side of having a good relationship and i am not saying it hasn't been good because it has. OK to answer your question and for me I knew I was in Love with my husband when i saw a movie. I don't know your age but the movie was A Star Is Born with Kris Christofferson and Barbara Striesand. I didn't know what hit me was a deep down feeling of wanting someone just to cherish me like he did in that movie to her. That's about as good as i can explain it. I can't say that my 28 years of marrige has been great all the time but that's what love is forgiving and having faith. and remember that God Loves You Too!!!!


Christianity religion of love why?

Iraq is that your definition of love?


Afghanistan is that your definition of love?


Sudan is that your definition of love?


Palestine is that your definition of love?


Vietnam is that your definition of love?


Soviet Union is that your definition of love?


Japan is that your definition of love?


All those and more and you cowards talking about love you are just in love with massacre and distorting peoples lives.





Feel free to answer.


What is your part in all of these massacres?


Are you a solder or you just toyed by your god?





and I am out Allahoum pray for Saidina Muhammad علية الصلأة و السلأم

Christianity religion of love why?
Well my first thought is those are all Muslim countries with the exception of three, and those three are not christian. So, whats your point? You want to go through every war America has had? Not all Americans are Christians, in fact the percentage is getting smaller and smaller. I still dont understand this post!


Does Love exist without passion and attachment, or is it just a catchy word that puts people in a good mood?

If a stranger you "love" disappears, do you mourn them like a family memeber, or more like a lost pencil?





Is Love a word you throw around to impress people with how loving you are, or does this Love you claim to feel actually motivate you to do things you wouldn't do for those you do not love?





Just how robust is this "love" you feel for strangers?





Is it a simile for "indifference", or "like".





Is it something you feel when it is convenient to do so.





If a homeless man is laying on the cold pavement in winter, and you have an urgent appointment, do you Love the stranger, or pass by because it would be inconvenient to miss the appointment?

Does Love exist without passion and attachment, or is it just a catchy word that puts people in a good mood?
It depends on how you define stranger. Some may say that we and strangers, perhaps we are but that doesn't mean that I don't have love for you. True it is not the same love I have for those in my close family and friends, but would I feel a loss if something were to happen to you, YES. When I read about your pain, my heart breaks, when you tell a joke I share that laugh with you. Though I haven't met you, I still care that you are hurting. That is friendship and friendship is love. I can't go so far as to say that I love everyone in the world, but I still don't doubt the love of those who claim they do, as long as they back up their words with actions. Pangel for example.
Reply:Love doesn't exist. It's just a word.








Yet I tell my family I love them... how odd.
Reply:Love without passion is called unconditional love. It is not a catchy word or phrase, it is a pure emotion expressed in human form as joy. Love with passion is more complex and dense, more personal.





Like you, I have a hard time with people who say they love me when they do not even know me. I agree with you (if I am understanding your point, here) that the WORD is used conveniently, but the FEELING is not behind the word. Capital L or lowercase l, love means love, and those that say I love you because they are a certain religion and feel we should love all others are not speaking truth. They are rotely doing what they are taught to do by the books they read, which they rotely follow because they are taught to follow, because if they do not follow them, then they rotely believe they will not be in God's good graces.





I, on the other hand, speak truth. If I do not know you, I will not tell you I love you (or even like you, for I do not know you). I will be open to getting to know you so that I might love you, but that takes work. It is not a given.
Reply:Love is a one syllable four letter word that has unparalled meaning and purpose. I consider myself to be very capable of love. I try to exhibit to friends and strangers alike. I do mourn for those that I have never met. That's not necessarily love for them, but for human life and mankind as a family. It is still however love, which is the same love given from God Who Is Love!
Reply:Of COURSE love exists without passion. There are all sorts of love; brotherly love, parental love, romantic love, etc. God gave us the ability to love and it's the most powerful emotion there is. Also the most important.
Reply:love is very simple yet very complex word. at its root is unconditionally favor something or someone.


but once you move past the root and it can mean an infinite amount of possibilities.


first in what sense are you using it? i mean i love my truck, i love my mom, i love a great piece of booty. so i guess it's really upto the individual's opinion
Reply:Love exists only because God created it.

I love him damn it!?

First time to fall in love. Eventhough I'm 19, I've never fallen in love expect well.. this one time. Met this guy a year ago, started dating 4 months after we've met. First I was sceptic *I was down on love* but then I started developing some serious feelings for him. I think he loves me too but part of me is still a little bit down on love. I'm scared I'd lose him, I'm scared I'd let my emotions go and love him very much n then he dumps me or sth bad happens. It would really suck not having him around anymore and I'm scared of the idea of going through a break up. I'm also a bit scared to believe he really loves me basically because I dont wanna be disappointed.





What do I do to just let myself go and not be so scared?

I love him damn it!?
it is that we sometimes give a person our feelings and hope that they take care of them. we are afraid that they wont care for them properly. sort of. if you allow them to mishandle your feelings...you allow yourself heartache. be open and secure about how you feel about that person...doesnt mean they can be open and secure with you. we cant control how another person feels..unless of course we are spell casters or dictators. just believe in yourself. you say, im going to love this person. i will do my best. because we cannot predict others thnking or future events...we try to have faith in the other person and their abilities...the future is unpredictable and chancy. we take the risk and hope for the best. why cant you do it? you dont want to.


when you want to..you will. peace
Reply:I hope he's loving you back! Report It

Reply:relax and live life.... if you break up, thats just something that happens to just about everyone and necessary part of life to experience!





Apart from that, best of luck... all i can say is if u act paranoid, that will kill your relationship, but if u relax and be happy.. things might go well!
Reply:girl you just answered your own question... just let yourself go and don't be scared!!


Does love exist?

Does love really exist? or is it just an illusion??








i am asking this question cuz it seemed as if me and my girlfriend really loved each other and then she broke up with me saying she realized she didnt love me and now we barely talk but i cannot stop thinking about her i cannot get over her sure ive kissed other girls but its not helping like i thought it would. i ask myself if im love but then i ask myself if love really is real or its just an illusion and im not talking about the love a parent has for their child but FALLING in love with another person does it really truly exist or is it merely an illusion

Does love exist?
You've felt it, so why would you question its existence? Don't be under the false impression that it lasts forever...most things have a beginning and an ending, and that includes love.





Enjoy it when you experience it...and look forward to the next time when it ends.
Reply:that's deep. but Yes i believe in love. i think that in a way it is somewhat an illusion.. because love makes you delirious.. it causes you to be blind a lot of the time and it causes you to do things and feel things that you never have before. i believe love is real.. but basically love is when you care so much about a person that you would do anything to ensure their safety and well-being and happiness, and you think about them before yourself because of it.. so basically you Care about your ex.. and she obviously doesn't care all that much about you if she'd rather move on to someone else than be with an amazing guy like you. you just weren't Perfect for each other.. because she didn't feel the Same way.. you were on two different levels. usually one person in the relationship falls for the other More.. and yes i believe you were in love, i'm sorry that happened to you... but you will fall in love with someone else who loves you back just as much and wants to spend every moment with you because love is when you can't imagine your life with anyone else. and they make you so happy. it has nothing to do with You either that she didn't love you.. it just happens.. and it sucks. but love does exist.. you have experienced it... and why you can't stop thinking about her is because You Never Forget Your First Love. sorry and best wishes to you!!!!
Reply:Love...illusion or truth? What if love is only an instinct, a belief society created-and what if there wasn't a society?-would love still have existed? The only answer I can find is that you can't deny, you can only feel...
Reply:Of course love exists. Don't expect to forget your ex-girlfriend, whom you loved, by simply kissing other girls. You will find love again, but for now try to forget your ex-girlfriend.
Reply:Love does exist, and you are learning all about that first hand. because now that she is gone -- you can feel it -- But you are young, so do not -- and I repeat DO NOT let it consume you or it will eat you alive -- and your manhood will be no more. You have to take the bad with the good -- and learn from both. What did you learn from that relationship?


What did you like about her?


What didn't you like about her?


what didn't she like about you? and so on learn from the experience and move on. Learn just what you like -- vs. just eye candy. And don't look for her you both will find each other when you least expect it -- so be patient.
Reply:thats a very complex question.. that ur going to get a lot of answers for... theres a diff between loving somewun and being in love... look at it lik this.. she might of loved u but wasnt in love with u... love exist its jsut a matter of figuring out what kind of love u have for that person and if its worth pursuing. Love can be an illusion as well as it can be real and mutual.. its a matter of luck really... everywun has a true love its just having the luck to finding that person and keeping them when they find them... for love to not be an illusion itll have to be completely mutual. You only truly love once and u wont ever forget that person... but thats beacuse u will always love them...


Love for dance!?

i love dancing, i have loved dancing forever and i think i'm good at it. even though i love to dance to hip-hop i think i like dancing like tango and dances like that more. i love dancing to cuban music, and the dirty dancing movies make me wanna get up and dance the whole day. the problem is that i don't take lessons and i don't know if i ever will, but i love to dance soo much, and i think that's what i wanna do for the rest of my life but what kinda life would that be. i don't think of it as a job. another problem is that the dances i like usually require a partner but i don't have one and you can't really dance that much without a partner. anyway i just don't know what to do. how am i suppose to become a dancer, if i don't even take lessons, or will that even be a real profession? what should i do. i seriously love dancing and can dance for the whole day but is there really anything i can do?

Love for dance!?
If you want to improve - you need to put some structure into it and maybe take some lessons, maybe find a partner, or perhaps watch some instructional DVDs. You can't really learn from the movies. Signing up for a dance class in your local dance studio would be a good start. You don't need a partner for that.





However, if you don't want to do anything extra but just want to enjoy dancing, noone stops you - just dance.
Reply:You can ask your local studio if you could take classes and (IF they think you'll be good enough) Have you teach Dance classes.....

Reply:go to auditions, get seen, keep track of it all on a resume. take a few dance lessons, and just enjoy dancing, and you're good to go.
Reply:I love dance a lot too... yesh dance usually requires a partner. you can always find a friend who has the same interest as you - loves dance - and both of you can dance all you like together. No dance lessons doesnt mean much.you can always go visit youtube and learn some dance steps from there or watch any dance shows... picking up dance steps on your own is a way of having dance lesson for youself(:


Dance can be a profession if you're really keen on it.. yet it can only been an interest or a passion. i love dancing a lot.but i prefer to keep it as a passion, not a profession... this is actually rather up to your choice((:


If you really love dance, i suppose you will never give up on it and your passion for it will grow as each day pass by.dance is a form of art, a hobby or even an interest...


See it as a passion you have, or a kind of art you love...


And your day may be brighter...


Anyway, love dance even more!!(:
Reply:I'm sorry, but you really won't get anywhere if you don't have any professional training. There are a lot of people out there that are really talented, and they'll become professional dancers in the Nutcracker and Swanlake because of their training. If you want to pursue a career in this, no one will hire you if you don't have training, so you can't become a dancer. If you go to a studio they partner you up.
Reply:well, i would say that you should sign up for ballet, hiphop, and jazz at a studio, and work on that for a while. even if you like other types of dancing, its hard to become a pro dancer without much ballet experience. then, try to sign up for some other classes like tango and salsa. i wish you good luck, and keep on practicing! i dance too, and i love it. and i didnt think i would like ballet coming from mostly jazz and hiphop, but i love ballet now, too! so keep on practicing! also try to do other things that may involve dance like plays and get invlolved in the arts in your community. it helps to get you noticed and to get more people like directors, companies, and studios, to request you.


i hope this helps and im rooting for you!
Reply:I'm just like you i love to dance it is mi favorite thing i do jazz n hip-hop n i would also want to be a dancer wen im older. =]
Reply:Wow... I love dancing too... But um there are some dance classes that you can take thats only for an hour one day a week. If you don't want to take dance classes there are videos and dvd's that you can buy that will help you learn dances and stuff. Now if you want to make dancing your profession you can think about becoming an Choreographer or a dance teachers assistant. Now for the whole partner thing you could ask one of you close guy friends that will do anything for you to help you and be your partner for dances like the tango... Hope this Helps

Reply:You sound very conflicted, perhaps a little afraid to commit yourself to the work needed to become a professional dancer/instructor. If you've never taken any lessons, then you will discover there is a lot more to dance than you realized. You can try to figure out this problem yourself the same way you figure out any problem. Find out as much information as you can. Research on the web, talk to people, read, contact dance instructors. Ask them what it takes to make dancing your life's work, and what to expect from living such a life. Make a list of what you do and don't like about what you've discovered about choosing a life of dance. Decide if it makes sense for you to pursue it seriously.





Also, don't make the same mistake that most amateur dancers do. Becoming good at dancing is not about how many moves you know. If you aren't doing them right, you will suck, and someone who knows fewer moves, but can do them right will look better than you.





No matter what kind of dancing you do, you need to learn good basic technique to do it right and make it look good. You need strength, balance, flexibility, stress reduction, good posture, precision of body movement, body awareness, good musicality, and the ability to do all that with a partner or partners if the type of dance requires it. If you do this, you will find it completely changes the way you think, and how you view dancing. It will also help you figure out how to do new moves correctly and make it look good.





You can struggle for a very long time trying to figure all that out on your own, and never be 100% sure you are doing it right or why something doesn't seem to work. Or you can take some lessons from a professional and save time and frustration.





Also, stay away from people that think they know it all about dance, because they don't. You must always maintain the "beginner's mindset." There is always something more to learn, something to improve, and never give up practicing the basics no matter how good you get. Dance is a never ending learning experience.





Good luck, what ever you decide!
Reply:yes. i think you should get involved in dance lessons. maybe you will find your partner there. and then also you will get to learn new moves. :]
Reply:Ok, if you want to be a dancer, you dance. If you want to TEACH dancing you have to be TAUGHT. And you better have at least a bit of talent for teaching or you'll never succeed as a teacher.





What I would suggest is going to your local franchised dance studio (Fred Astaire, Arthur Murray) and tell them you want to teach dancing. They have a free training program during which they will put you through the wringer and see if you have what it takes. If you DO, you will be required to sign an agreement which basically states that you will teach for them for a period of time (2 years if memory serves) so that they recoup the cost of their training you. If you DON'T, they will send you on your merry way. I know that one of the franchises has tests that you have to pass along the way so that the studio isn't wasting their time and yours. I believe it's FA.





As far as learning, a beginner dancer doesn't ~get~ a partner. They get a teacher who partners them. Or they split lessons with a friend and they partner together.





As far as the money goes, there isn't much to be made in ballroom dancing. So you better love doing it for altruistic reasons.





Remember Nigel from "So You Think You Can Dance"? I'm going to echo his sentiment about anyone who thinks they can teach if they can't dance themselves: Do us all a favor and DON'T. If you want to teach or dance competitively - if you are serious about this being a passion - do yourself the favor of getting training. A reputable coach will be able to tell you quickly whether or not you have what it takes.
Reply:you can learn dance moves from dvds if you do not want to take lessons. but you may lack some techniques in the end

Is it Love?

Please help me understand this. We think we love somebody and we say we love them and then break up. Is that still love or did we really not love them in the first place?





Also, how do we know if we truly do love somebody? When we "love somebody" then why can't you not love them in as quick of a time as it took you to fall in love with them?

A year has past and he has moved on and I've enjoyed my life bieng single. This summer I met an awesome guy, we have so much in common it's scary. He himself was married for 10 yrs and also has been single for about a year now. See we dated in the summer and had THE BEST TIME EVER. But things started to move to fast and we both got scared...and things ended. He came back and wants to work things out, and we have started were we left off! I think I'm falling in love with him, but since my past relationship and with the new guy coming back in after being gone for 2 months has me freak out, I have a guard up!!! He told me he loved me for the 1st time on Xmas eve, and I've been longing to tell him I love him too. But the words wont come out. I'm to scared!!! What do I do? I want him to know I love him. I want to fall in love again?? Why cant I tel him..why?

Love problem?

"im indian and girl whom i love is peruvian, we r in love since last 2 years.... question is we know we love eachother so much but my girl is so negative tht she always think tht we will never meet and our love will be forever cyber love, can u pls show me a way how 2 convince her as im trying my best 2 call her in india and marry her but one day if shes positive, another day i find her negative and tht disturbs my mind a lot! help me pleaseeeeeeeeeee! coz i love her so much!"

Love problem?
Claro ella lo ve como un cyber love por que para ella lo es... y no lo ve factible o tangible de que tu y ella se vayan a encontrar y hacer realidad ese amor que tanto sienten el uno por el otro.. si no le demuestras que tus sentimientos por ella es real (ejemplo que vayas a visitarla al Peru, por que es extremadamente dificil o costoso) ella nunca lo vera como algo real... Ella se siente insegura por eso es que hay dias asi de que un dia si esta super enamorada de ti y otro dia esta super indecisa de que es lo que siente por ti.... No te preocupes que si son el uno para el otro, ya encontraran una solucion a ese problema, para estar juntos.. n_____n suerte...


Death...love...regret...?

you loved this person more than anything you have ever known. nothing was worth giving up your love. even death. yet, death is the thing that raped your love away from you, you love whom you promised that you would always be together. as you lay on you love's grave, tears pour down you pale face, your throat tight. you know you will never see your love again. you slit your wrists as you lay on your love's grave, spilling your crimson soul onto the uncaring earth.

Death...love...regret...?
hey, cheer upman, you shound like you had a very rough week.. i can understand how deep you must have loved this person..well but i don't really get your question anyway


anyway good luck and hope you find the love of your life and get her...

Can "human love" be absolute?

I am of the opinion that all human love including romantic love is subject to meeting mutual expectations. In that sense how deep human love is, can only be described with respect to it's intensity. So human love, I think can only be described on a scale for example 1 to 10, 1 meaning the least degree of love and 10 meaning the highest degree of human love where one will not hesitate to put his/her life on line for another.





But even at the highest degree, can human love be considered absolute like agape love?

Can "human love" be absolute?
i think it can, i know my love for my child, to me, transends all other things, is more intense then any emotion i ever imagined i would have. it even goes way beyond putting my life on the line for her,,,, while im not sure i like to admit it, if someone tried to harm her,, i would take them out, without a thought or question,,, and i dont expect anything in return, that has nothing to do with it,,,,,
Reply:I believe it depends on the person and how they were raised. if a child was shown love (unconditionally) then the rate would be 10. I am probably a 8. i would put my life on the line for a child, every day most people put their lives on the line to support their families they are a 10. There are some that are a 1 because they only care about #1 (themselves)
Reply:Humans can have absolute love, but it often kills them...
Reply:I think that it can. A mothers love for a child is absolute and whatever the child does the mother still loves him, she may not like his actions at times but the love is still strong.§
Reply:Before attempting to answer this question, I must ask, by what standard are you writing of “absolute”?





It is interesting that you mentioned one of the four (Eros (ερος) Agape (αγαπη) Philia (φιλια) Storge (στοργη)) Greek concepts for love. You referred to agape as the absolute love. Agape is a love towards one's neighbor which does not depend on any loveable qualities that the object of love possesses. Of the four it is the most selfgiving, dependable love. However, can it be places in the category of absoluteness?


I think an absolute love can only be had by an absolute being. Humans are far from absolute. I think humans can be capable of a very strong love, like agape; but are incapable of anything beyond the finite realm.
Reply:By defining it, you've limited it. Don't limit Love, just let it be, no matter how it manifests.
Reply:The closest to agape love is of a mother for a child. Period. Do not get too caught up in semantics.
Reply:I am a person who believes MY LOVE is absolute but I don't believe human love is absolute. When I met my husband and he met me, we had a mutual meeting of expectations because we had the same expectations: we wanted to find true love and stay in love till death does us part. My LOVE is a 10; no human love can't be agape love because most humans wouldn't do that. I would for my husband, though.
Reply:I give unconditional love to my children. That doesn't mean that I spoil them. If they misbehave even at 18, I accept my children for who they are, but I do not accept the bad behaviour, but when they apologize, I always forgive and love is always given. That is unconditional and absolute! I feel this way about my friends, too. Unfortunately, not all people see life this way. If more people did, I think we'd have a better place in this world.
Reply:Absolutely!
Reply:My brother has told me a number of times how I have unconditional love.for friends family and others.%26amp; for all people. I try to help those I can. love is true love when you don't have expectations.when I give I dont expect anything back. nor hold anything in my heart. I just love. period. I give it all to the Spirit of God and forget it.
Reply:I think that you are on the right track with your thinking. Unconditional love is a childish fantasy encouraged by fairy tales, media and parents trying to hard to maintain their children's innocence. If love was unconditional, then I could just come across a bum on the street and fall in love with them. Of course, it doesn't work that way. Even the most intense love is based upon what the people do for each other. Parents and their children usually share a very intense love, but that is because the parent ensures the survival of the child and the child carries on the legacy of the parents. A married couple can have a very happy, fulfilling, loving relationship, but they love each other because they provide each other with whatever makes them happy or provides fulfillment. To love someone with no reason whatsoever would be insane, probably the result of some type of deep psychological or neurological disorder. And that hardly seems desirable.
Reply:well, my mom and dad's is absolute to me... but i have never expreinced anyone's else who can show me an absolute love! I mean it has always been jucy love feelings which have never been real or absolute..there might be..i dont know
Reply:yes human can have a absolute love, cos it is what gives the true hapiness if he realises, but he needs to train himself to do that, cos in this world relative hapiness gives him more pleasure in daily life but it is not constant.
Reply:I wouldn't think so. We think we love, yet with no real understanding I think cannot make it absolute. Agape love is something that translates to me as simple interest and innocence or curiosity. It's something you don't understand, and the unexplainable cannot be described if we do not comprehend it. We feel "happy" but we can only say why, not the feeling of it. It's claiming to understand what we really don't comprehend.





I really don't know where my answer is going, so I apologize.
Reply:By absolute , do you mean unconditional. I've seen close relatives that are that way. Blood is thicker than water. They may not like you or your ways but your still family.
Reply:human love is sexual need ,parental love is true
Reply:NO!
Reply:The 'answer' to that question is contained within it. Why put quotations around 'human love'? Because it is assumed that there is some other type of love. If there is some other type of love (eg the love of god etc), then human love is not absolute. One would only ask a question about absolutes if one already thinks that such things exist, otherwise why ask about them? Now, if you share my view that absolutes either do not exist or are not attainable/knowable (which comes to the same thing, even though it is different), then you would of course stop asking about absolutes and take the view that there is only human love, so the question of whether it is absolute or not is unneccessary.
Reply:Do you agree, that nothing manmade is flawless??


If so, then I think I can say :


Though love is a gift of God, of nature, it is through us it operates... we join in the making of a lovely world, and err, because we cannot love without fault....thus human love, or anything at all, cannot be absolute.......
Reply:So what you are saying is that you have never experienced "agape" love.





Too bad.....Its hard to understand something you have never experienced, without faith in the possibility of it.





Good luck.


cheeseball


on a scale of 1 to 10


expectations were never met


with respect to it's intensity
Reply:I always had a belief that true human love is in itself absolute. Most people might agree with me for the nature of love usually portrayed in literature and media is seen as everlasting and people involved are often living "happily ever after". My opinion is that love, is absolute. And evidences that prove otherwise are results of conflicts in personal agenda. Etc. both parties do bnot agree on things which they ultimately find crucial and more important to the relationship they share. From this point of view, i do not agree that love should be discussed as an object with calibration or varying levels of intensity or the strength of a chemical reaction as described by some who found to be the origin of our feelings.


I love Ted Bundy?

i saw ted Bundy's movie some days ago and all i can say is : i love him.


You all would die. Would you prefer to die in an accident or heart attacked or disease or some other dully causes Or by a charming, attractive , good looking, witty and with winning personality man ?





C'omon people, dunt act like dumbs. Ted Bundy made you people love your partners more than before.





Ted Bundy sacrificed himself just for one and only reason : Love


Ted Bundy showed the true meanning of hate just to make others know what Love is.





Anyone who loves anyone in his life somehow owe Ted Bundy


Ted Bundy was just the other side of the love but not apart from it. He was the Love
