to love or to be loved?

Postby bambina » Wed Aug 30, 2006 7:28 pm

of course the best is when you love and you are loved, but what do you think is better when you have to choose? when a man/woman you love doesnt love you but there is one who loves you and cares about you so much, but you dont love him/her :roll:
what love is? do you think that if you didnt like the person from the beginning you would love him after? or is love a destiny and when you meet your love you will understand it at once?...

ihave never really experienced the love and being loved, or if i did, it was so fleeting, it has all been forgotten. but loving someone is great...even if they don't love you back. it fills your body with great happy hormones. on the other hand, sometimes a guy has said he loved me and it would totally turn me off. most recently this comment came from a man who wanted to move in with me after the 2nd date. he didn't even know my last name, let alone enough about me to know that he loved me, or not.
as for what is love, i think it has different definitions for different situations. i have not had any feelings for person one way or the other, and then one day, might see them in a whole new light... as for the destiny thing, we are all exactly where we are supposed to be at any given moment, and i do not think that anyone totally ever fully understands.....

good luck to you....
good luck to us all.

I always start from the position that if somebody says "I love you"....that's their problem, not mine.

i think the only real love is the love of your children, the rest is hormones, needs and dependancy.. but then thats just me...

I think in the end when you love someone either he loves you back or not, it isvery rewarding. Love teaches you things like patience and tolerance. Love is not all about hormones and lust like a lot of people would have us think. Love is about acceptance, compromise, joy and affection. Love is about friendship and companionship. Love conquers all.

i think the love has to be mutual - you cannot choose nor should u ever .....how can u be with someone you have no love/feeling for, I could never......but hey thats just me!
there has to be something there......some spark, chemistry that could grow to love...even deep love!
not sure if I believe in love at first site......thats just attraction/lust not love......love needs time

there was a lady in the US that wrote an article on how she loved her husband more than her children and she got a huge rant from thousands of people saying she was a bad mother blah blah
but I agree with her - its a very different love altogether
but you need to have that special union with your partner and kids benefit from seeing their parents in love!
