@Montanaman open and honest communication is the only hard work in my experience. Nothing works without it...the more people communicate that way, the easier it gets.
@puck61 damnn, so u callin ur brother deformed? Was wondering too like no way ur brother had the same face,maybe eyes, that's cold xD colder than a expired marshamllow on the shelf
@Xuan12No...you don't "got it" you can't say silly things like "life isn't fair to me"...you can't just blame. Yeah...pretty much we ARE to blame when our lives continuously suck...as you grow and mature through your life...hopefully you will get that and take more resonsibility
@Quicksilver87 You said, " I mean, she didn't love me as a man but as a friend." and I was simply saying that 'Philia' love is just as strong or stronger than 'Eros' love, and I was expounding on that premise with my foray into Greek etymology.
@Quicksilver87 Friendship is one of the most precious things a person can be part of. Of course that is so obvious it's almost a platitude! Like saying, "Pain is unpleasant." or "The sun is warm."
We say that dogs love us unconditionally, I do too, they are dependent on us to provide them with there needs to survive the environment that we put them in. We train them, educate them, medical needs, to do things for us that we benefit from, service dogs, military, police, cadaver dogs, they can smell drugs and chemicals that are explosives and they seem to thrive on that. And sometimes we just enjoy having them with us. I think there is a message here.
@popmol I believe in it to a certain extent, but I also believe that it doesn't completely and truly exist either. Let me try to explain...My wife loves me "unconditionally" in a sense, however she expects to be respected, expects me to remain loyal and faithful, and wants to be loved in return. Those are "conditions" that would be deal breakers if I don't honor them. She loves me regardless of past mistakes and wrongs, inspite of my flaws (physically, mentally, emotionally, in character and personality) and that's what I call "unconditional" (she accepts and loves me for who I am). See what I mean?
@indyjoe well of course thats love. and i might be able to love someone like that but if my partner is in the wrong then i'll call her out on her bullshit. unless i go full love mode and just walk behind her like a puppy but since that is probably not going to happen.
i can put of all doubts and judgement temporarily but not forever i just can't so i don't see it happening. but there are those people whatever their partner does they never judge and always forgive but thats close to an abusive relationship.
@SW-User no no i meant i'll love you blindly xD although mine is more admiring love then something else :p i love your flaws but i can't hug you xD sounds nice :)
