Sunn O))) Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I love my dogs, and my family, I guess. Had a few crushes, but since I'm me, I didn't try doing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Only time I confessed to a girl, I already knew she was dating someone. They got married 4 months later. This love guy is a big fucking asshole, I don't want him as a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johan Liebert Posted April 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 XD This is an interesting way of talking about love. I meant like crushes and stuff like that, but this works too. I don't have any true experience with dating. But I live my family and my dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Dated one girl, went.... really bad. Fell for two people, both rejected me. We're still friends though which is great. Honestly, love is something that's wonderful, but it's very much not needed. I love my friends and that's good enough for me. ^_^ If I can get more than that then I will go for it, but I won't obsess over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 My love life is pretty screwed up, just saying. I don't think details matter much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asurana Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I've had several experences with love. The only time I really found that thing people call "True love" was with one person a while ago. I don't really see them anymore but it was a experence I wont forget. I still miss them to this day. Of course love also has its dowm moments of being rejected and such, but just keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I have a cynical side when it comes to love. And then I have a more useful view when it comes to the topic. And then I have the berserk button where people will say they love someone they barely know/are only dating. Especially in poorly written fiction.

Thar Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I love my family. Besides that, love is overrated. I legitimately accepted a girlfriend just to confirm whether this was true for me or not... and I was right. One month later, I broke up with her and didn't care about how she felt in the slightest, cause I know I was happy to be single again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Love's about conforming and caring about the other genuinely. The fuzzy feeling fades, the constant and true care is what love's about. It's devotion, sacrifice, and sadness. It's misery and joy. Happiness, contentment, and companionship. If you're in it for the buzz, it's not worth it.

Fusion X. Denver Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I think I might be in love with an old friend of mine. I had a girlfriend last month (my first) and things were great for a while. I broke up with her about a month in because I felt like I lost my feelings for her and it wouldn't be fair to keep leading her on. And looking back, I think at least a part of it is because I've loved this friend for a long time and I didn't want to admit it. I never feel more on top of my game than when I'm around her. I'm funny, I'm attentive, I'm charming, I'm polite, I'm thoughtful, all qualities that I pretty much never exude around anybody else. She just...brings out the best in me. And my god is she great. She's so intellectual where she can talk politics, school stuff, books, and a bunch of other crap that goes over my head, but without being stuck up. And she genuinely cares about school; she's studying some really cool stuff studying abroad right now relating to sociology, the sex trade, and some other stuff and she always sounds really fascinated by whatever she finds. And you could talk to her about anything. I've talked to her about the psychology behind Ayn Rand works, to wine, to her mind being stuck in the gutter for associating bananas with penises because hurhur phallic objects. Plus she has a really kind heart. Not to the extent where she's sickeningly sweet, but she never goes out of her way to make an intentional, disparaging comment to someone and she doesn't talk about stuff she hates. But she doesn't do that where she's above everyone else's, she just literally doesn't think that way. I really respect her ambition too. She's been on the student council, she's volunteered for a buttload of stuff during school (ambassadors, service trips, etc) and you always see her with some sort of drive. She's done more every summer than I have in the last...seven years of living or so. Her determination and resilience always humbles me and makes me want to do better when I think of her. Plus she's been running cross country since middle school, even through college. I can't muster myself to go running longer than a couple days, yet she's super conscientious about her health, both physical and mental. The one thing that really makes her stand out though, is she can socialize with anybody. I remember my high school graduation party; most of the kids/teenagers clumped together and stayed that way the whole night. She was with us for a lot, but she also ended up talking to some of the other adults there on her own. I know that's not beholden to her, but I feel like kids today don't usually go for that, talking to adults at a party. I just thought that was really cool that she could and did do that. Along with that, I feel like she's a lot more mature than other people our age. And her moral compass reflects that too. Of course she's not perfect. I've heard she can be a crybaby sometimes and broke down while running for student council president up until senior year. I think she's her harshest critic and that when she's in a bad mood, literally no one is safe. She's been a tad harsh to her parents sometimes too, but they say nutty things at times so I wouldn't blame her >.> The one thing I regret about our relationship is we don't see each other that much outside of when our families get together like we've been doing for years. It's always the best of times for me and if I can, I want to make a serious effort to see her more often and hopefully register on her radar the way she does on mine. I'm pretty sure I love her, even though most people would like to say I don't know what love is yet with my age and inexperience. And that's something I thought I should be worried about too, that I should try dating a couple more times or see if this was just a big crush. But I don't think that's right, at least for me. I don't want her to be second to girls I want to date just because I like a few things about them and they're pretty. And I don't want them to "warm-ups" to what I consider to be my "end-goal" either, which is just as wrong. It's probably presumptuous of me to think this idealistically that things would work out just because I feel this way when relationships are a lot harder work in reality. But if I can work things out with anyone, I know I can do it with her. I've had one relationship and while I can say I definitely started out wanting to date her and I will never regret it, I can't, I won't, be able to do that again after coming to terms with myself. Because if there was one thing I've realized over my sophomore year in college is that I'm in love with one of my oldest friends and I'm going to grow a pair for once and try to do something about it. If this isn't love, then I don't want to know what love is. edit: jesus this is long SEE, I CARE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTW (For The Wynn) Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Dated a few times, a couple fairly serious relationships that went sour, and that's about it. My last girlfriend went behind my back and tried hitting on a good friend of mine. She was trying hard to date him, and he told me about it. It ended poorly. I've been single for a year.

Frunk Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 My love is generally unrequited. I'm a closeted bisexual, but my preference is for guys, and generally, they are guys like me, with no outward indicators of homosexuality. So this leaves me in a difficult position. It's not as simple as asking a girl out, getting rejected, and moving on. I have one friend in particular, and I can't ask him out, or ask him what he's into, because I won't out myself (not out of fear, I just do not want to), so I can't do anything, except drop hints and subtle flirts, and hope for a miracle, I suppose. I love him from a distance while cherishing his company and even the sight of him. I dream about him and would give my life for his, I adore him that much. But we should lock this thread because my bisexuality is degrading to women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
