In spite of the walls, the mountains and oceans, they are together, because what they experience is on such a high level it is beyond the limitations of the physical plane." You're talking about Romantic love which is a hollow, empty, concoction of mimicry of the REAL THING. The REAL THING is the Unconditional LOVE that one person should have for the entirety of humanity. Simply loving one person when everything is connected is selfish and ridiculous. One should be able to LOVE everyone and everything as fully as they selfishly choose to romantically love another. Romantic Love is based on: 1. exclusive rights and ownership over another individual. If you don't think that this is the case, then see what happens the next time your significant other is hit on by a member of the opposite sex. 2. Control and compromise- Anytime a person must compromise themselves for another, it means that this person's love comes with conditions. In an unconditional LOVE based relationship, all is free to do whatever one chooses without the judgment of another person or persons. Additionally, most relationships fail because of one person's attempt to exert control over the other. In America, we have in excess of a 50% divorce rate and most relationships are of the sexual nature and don't make it past a year. 3. Slavery/Marriage/3rd party contract- Thats' right. Merely going to work and coming home is participating in voluntary slavery, but, when one must provide for another and two lives and their stability are dependent upon finances, then they become financially dependent and contractually obligated to the STATE "to work things out" in order to fulfill their 3rd party contract to "big brother," so that they can receive tax breaks and incentives. 4. Romantic Love is also based on societal constructs of Western relationships. Not only are you at the mercy of the other person's hopes and fantasies of what relationships are (God only can hope that the other person isn't a Disney fanatic) but then, you are held to politically correct standards of how society views ideal American relationships. Romantic love puts you at a constant state of conformity. -For anyone who has ever had a relationship for longer than a year, they can vouch that Dr. Phil, Oprah, and Dr. Drew have more influence on your lives and the happiness of your "significant other" than you would like to believe.- 5. Romantic Love makes you responsible for another person's happiness. But no one tells you that dating someone with bouts of depression, anger, and bi-polar tendencies will drive you into the dirt with them. There are some people who simply CANNOT FIND HAPPINESS and do everything that they can to avoid it. So then, you're stuck with a person whom you supposedly love that is hell-bent on being miserable; and no matter what you do, you cannot change the personal choices of someone else. --Hence, the part mentioned above about CONTROL and COMPROMISE. By placating this nonsense, you compromise your own happiness for the temporary illusion of relationship stability. 6. Romantic love is usually based upon initial "attraction," or "lustful desires." All that starts under nefarious intent...ENDS THAT WAY. 7. Romantic love acts as a distraction to TRUE happiness. Since all of our realities seem to be defined by television, we always seek to find the "fairy tale ending" that DOES NOT EXIST. When you base your happiness off of pre-defined and manufactured ideas of it, then you falsely live in such a way that attempts to validate that fantasy. --Which is the reason why MOST relationships end up in the toilet...or, people end up staying with each other out of convenience...NOT COMPANIONSHIP. In short...I totally disagree with your post. The only TRUE LOVE is that of the Unconditional. I believe that true relationships must start in an unconditional manner, and then once people are MATURE enough to have a relationship that does not stray from the original purpose, then and ONLY THEN, can it be the type of LOVE you have spoken of. -But, since I know that the LOVE that you were attempting to speak of is as rare as a purple diamond burning at a billion degrees celsius, I know that you were not speaking of this love at all, but, the idealized, fantasy version that Walt Disney shoves down the throats of millions in a very haphazard and fantasized manner. watching the "run up" to the elections and the "hopes and dreams" that are built as a result is like watching a dead mouse that is still able to make his exercise wheel go around because his nerves are still twitching that familiar motion... |

DoubleHelix User ID: 15806923 United States 06/10/2012 03:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I agree w/ your premise. However, I think most people who marry do so under delusional love. Once in a while you get a couple who has that enduring spiritual love and they stay together for decades and weather life's storms together. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16742546 Most couples *wish* they had that type of love but it is not the deep and enduring type. Just because you get married does not mean you should fight for your marriage. Only "true" marriages are worth fighting for. What's the solution? Don't rush to get married to just anyone and marry into a "true" marriage. How do you know it's true? Life is *relatively* easy for you. You don't fight about money and politics. Most of the time you're on the same page, not pushing yourself to agree with or understand the other. In other words: YOU ARE COMPATIBLE. I'm astonished by how many people marry who are incompatible. Oh, and another thing: you don't play the "insult game" and withhold affection from one another. I hate it when couples jokingly put each other down. You'll see how quickly this morphs into deep-seated resentment and disconnect. I know a guys whose wife did this for years and of course they stopped sleeping together due to lingering bitterness and he finally moved out. now he's with another woman who openly loves him/shows affection. Ex wife ground her teeth over this and became a very bitter woman. That's what happens though when you insult everything someone does as a "joke." Try showing love and support instead! You just broke down in simpler terms what the OP was trying to convey to those who are listening, in his two posts. It may be copy pasted...but first it was typed...and then copy pasted. It is the content of the post that matters. Not all will understand. I supose the ones who would understand already know(and receive a reminder) and the ones who do not, may one day get it latter and remember the sead that was planted and grew ...

Anonymous Coward User ID: 9094264 Canada 06/10/2012 03:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | seriously... if you werre giong what i am not only would you swiftly see how the elders should be disrespercted for what they do. seriously it's the most sad thing ever only in the perspective that htis trash bag government has taken to playing filter the phone lines and emails hacking etc to try and make my sons life have a value beyond that which it is. Kind of like canada painting itself with gold leaf when it's just a blob of dead weight led holing back humanity. Like the last level of this retarded governments game where you say such things and laugh in the face of freakshow idiot land they just wreck your life even more like shit for brains. Kind of like a horde of morons in our stupid fucking government.... females mostly, smacking their chests gretzky style and screaming we's smart dammit! and so driving the wedge even deeper between family. Kind of like say we's smart or we wreck your life even more. The more you laugh in their faces the more they act like idiots and try to mess with you to hurt your feelings and act like so much was lost. It's like if a group of north americans got times travel and raped and molested gods family because they wanted to prove why places like a biblical hell should exist and so you end up with a story of god creating life on this planet by bringing the corpses up out of the dirt and cloning or reanimating them. Or so the story goes. As if guy went back in time and tried to bring things back to life after being ruined in the past. Kind of like they're all in the past waiting but god destroyed from the future kind of game. Like a paradox game. Trying to convince that by this government and people doing nothing but helping wreck my life that people who were cast into the past were being killed off and so god apparently has to go back at some point and bring them back to see them again. I don't know would make for an interesting story... just saying |

If he even exists anymore. can't be too sure given the clones and stuff around this friggin reality they had and the cloud face drawing of people like my son with his head cut in half. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1145382 United States 06/10/2012 06:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So in essence you just told anyone who can't "experience each other" on some mystical plane while they're miles apart that they don't really love each other. Quoting: Sandi_T Clearly, you don't know much if anything about love. It's nice and poetic and it's beautifully over-romanticized. But it's not real love, it's just poetry. Nice poetry, lovely poetry and whatnot. But telling people that if they don't feel a bunch of mystical mumbo-jumbo if they're not together, they don't really love each other, doesn't help keep people in love. In fact, it makes them feel defeated and not good enough. This is no better than those who try to sell infatuation as love and who claim that if you don't feel infatuated every second, you're not really in love. You are not helping anything with this kind of thing. If you feel some kind of special mystical something all the time, that's great for you. But not all people can or do experience that. It doesn't make their love any less real, any less deep, or any less powerful. Good post, Sandi T. I just hope that the people who over-romanticize love don't end up getting hurt or disappointed. I have a good friend who said she thought she had the perfect marriage/romance up until the day her husband called from his girlfriend's house and asked for a divorce. Romantic relationships take a lot of work and sometimes you can get bored and angry. It's not all hearts and flowers. |
