[free_cyprus]

free_cyprus, throughout the world there are pockets of humanity which share your views, they are examples of what the world could be and they are a credit to the human race.

I have spent much time among them and imagine that you have also done so (judging by your perceptions).

Unfortunately, they are in the minority and their views are mostly ridiculed for their simplicity.

The nearest the Western advocates of their philosophies can hope to aspire to is through the use of 'Hallucinogenic Substances', most of whom do not even have the intelligence to understand that their euphoria is merely a poor substitute for the reality they attempt to emulate, thus we have a serious problem with 'Drug Addiction'.

I agree with you that the world would be a happier place were we able to adopt the principles you hope for, I am not sure that the aforementioned minorities will gain ascendancy in the future, therefore I cannot share your optimism.

I wish you well and must say I admire your tenacity in stating your views.

everything in the world was an idea once everything in our houses serounding except things in nature,,,,, soo who knows maybe its an idea that will change the world again into the one i envision

Love Aint Love If You Have To Question It

Op! Here we go again. What then [b]IS[/b love, free_cyrpus? In my opinion love waxes and wanes like the moon. Respect, on the other hand, can remain steadfast.

[denizaksulu]

my father never said he loved me until i was 16 years old. at least he said it, and now he says it regularly.

Lucky you!

the problem with the cypriots is that not only have they not learned to say i love you, but they themselves were never told from their parent that they love them, also its like a macho thing with the cypriots as if one becomes a sissy or one becomes weak the truth of the matter is its alctualy takes strenth to say i love you its the caresteristic of the strong not the weak to say i love you.

thats why maybe 400 people have looked at this thread and very few have said i love on the human level,

Free-cyprus, I understand what you are saying but is not always the case you know. Men in Cyprus have changed, they are less macho than they were in old times and they say I love you more easily. Some say i love you every min...like your self (and some of them do not mean it really) and some others once a year or never. By the way i do not think that is only a Cypriot thing.

As for the number of people who saw this thread and did not reply... well have you ever thought that many of those times were you and me reading the posts I already expressed my self on the matter of love and how easily or meaningless/-full it is for some people so i will stay back with that for a while.

lena this is a universal thing not just a cypriots thing cors its not
but i wanted to tell everyone in this forum that i love them

even though some of them make me mad with the rubbish they post regarding cyprus, but i have the confidence to forgive them to, and i have the confidence to say i love you to them.

Free-cyprus, is your right to feel that way and want to say that you love them, but respect that they might not feel the way you feel. Also, when you say "I love you" do not expect the same reaction back. As Eliko said (if I am not wrong) the love thing is not something you plan, and for sure is not something that you always express with words.

But hey I do respect you

i dont expect anything from anyone leno thats why im seldom disapointed, the kind of love im talking about is the love you can tell a friend, brother or sister or daughter or son mother or father

Ok, ok, I give in. We can all love each other. Some more than the others. What has more power than words is the way we show that we love the other person. Our acts of love are more effective than just saying ' I love you'. When one is loved, they know it. When one loves it is as obvious as daylight. You can never be mistaken. As to the words, they mean nothing.

Let me see if i can get this right:
i once heard that a man will say "i love you" to get sex, while a woman will give sex in order to be loved.

shame isn't it?

If we go by stereotypes,then a woman will say "I love you" to get a diamond ring,for example...

I have known men too who gave sex in order to be loved ...
The lesson I have learned is this...You cannot plan for love...All love that is planned are false love...Love is something that happens to you when you are least expecting it...And when it is true love you feel it in every cell in your body...not only in private parts...

Agreed there BK, except the little bit at the end

What I mean is, it does not enter the equation.

Careful, Deniz...
You might be getting yourself deeper in trouble...

Which equation "the little part at the end" does not get into???

Karma

I also love Dalai Lama and got involved with sufi stuff too..wellcome to the club of Rich Bitch Life Searchers

I am happy to say that I stood ten metres away from the Dalai Lama on his visit to Australia, what an inspirational man.

Karma as far as the Rich Bitch Life Searchers club, welll I hope that its all worth it mate I have put a lot of years into it now and I hope that by the time I die I would have figured a couple of things out at least.

BK, I do not know what you are implying. Ofcourse, what I mean is 'sex' does not come in to the equation. You do not fall in lve with someone, just bcause you want 'sex'. It may or may not be inevitable, but hey, love is love and its beautiful. If you crown it with 'sex' well that is even better, but not the sole aim.
Pray, what deeper trouble you are talking about? Was that a Freudian slip?

Sorry,Deniz. I was referring to your attempt to clarify the "little part at the end" bit of your earlier post. I was being mischivous. I was thinking that "the little part at the end" is often chopped off...

without love how can you have respect. respect can be induced by fear that some people have of others

to show you love another person through body language is unspoken words that one thinks without saying them there is no other know way to show love without actualy thinking about the spoken word even if you do not say them they have to be there in your mind in order to convey them to the recipient throught your body language and your eyes
