Love is knowing that nothing you love will last for long in the world, and not caring.

Simon Sizer: The Romantic Nihilist.

Snap him up now, ladies, before he goes in the sales.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I don't think he's being a nihilist, I think he's saying that the love is important enough that it doesn't matter that it won't last forever.

My experience with romantic love was very...muddled. I mean, at first there were only the highs... the great feelings of being with each other and not wanting to leave. Then, it became so damn confusing. But, no matter what, I knew I HAD to have him in my life-- in order to survive on some level. The emotional bond between us was..unexplainable. And, in the end, all I knew was I loved him so much that I had to let him go when he asked. I still love him, but in a different way. I don't physically need him in my life anymore, but the memories still keep me warm at times and I look forward to finding whomever is going to be with me for the long run.

Side note and quasi-vent:

My psychology book says that the formula for a sucessful relationship is at least a 5:1 ratio of Positive:Negative interactions...

What sucks is that you have to look at that from both sides. Because sometimes half of the partnership is getting the 5:1, but the other half is ending up with more of a 1:5.... not that I know anything about that. Nothing at all.

And it's not like he thinks it's funny or anything. I mean, he KNOWS it's happening, but he's not going to make it stop or go away... it's just too damn easy for him to be a dick and treat me like shit. Find my weak spots and go with it. It's an amusement to him. Haha, funny game. Because I'm "so cute" when I'm mad.

I hate men.

English, you mean?

Given your wording, it sounds like you're talking about a situation you're currently experiencing. If that's the case, I can only say that there's a reason they invented this thing called "dumping the son of a bitch".

Shik: I can't remember who I saw that quote attributed to (seems like it was a cartoonist), but I'd be very surprised if Nietzsche ever used the word "snowmobile".

Yes men can be lame, but rest assured, dear LOA, that your sex has imparted its measure of pain, as I'm sure many can here attest.

For some time I had mistaken adoration for love. Adoration can be one-sided, where love by it's very nature must be shared. Adoration is love for one, and it can seem to fill your life with purpose and color your world, but if the sentiment is not mutual it can assume a darker aspect. To me proper love embodies that magical coincidence where the adoration for one overlaps and supports the adoration for the other. Ideally this experience is sustainably joyous for both.

I miss that part. It aches like an untended lesion and hardens my heart and causes me to strike out like a pathetically wounded wretch at those who might innocently probe those tender spots. Not that I've been thinking about it a lot lately or anything.

ps- I believe the good Captain Mike has established the insightful definition that indeed "Love is a holographic snowmobile." I don't know that there could be a wiser answer.
