I'll keep my answers brief for those with short attention spans...
1: (Love vs Anxiety) Love can make you anxious.
2: (Love Songs Are Fake) Yeah a lot of love songs are fake and corporate, but just cos lots of people wear fake gold doesn't mean REAL gold doesn't exist! People only fake love cos the real thing is so popular, everyone wants a piece of the pie.
3: (Marriage Is A Fraud) Surely the optimum marriage is between two people who share roughly the same definition of love. As long as both parties agree a version of love that suits them both, then who are we to criticise? By the sound of things, both your parents and mine have founded a shared definition of love which suits them. I guess I'm just looking for someone whose definition of love is compatible with mine.
4: Love & Romance: this might be the root of our (very enjoyable) debate. Maybe you think I'm talking specifically about romance/ infatuation/ the "honeymoon period" ie all the fluffy flowers and chocolate sort of stuff. Yeah that's a part of love but not the whole thing. Love also involves sticking around to make it work, and not giving up when the going gets tough. LOVE IS NOT GIVING A FUCK THAT YOUR PARTNER HAS POOPY DIAPERS; LOVE IS SAYING: "THAT'S OK, I STILL LOVE YOU, MESSY BUTT AN' ALL!"
5: The pleasing physical sensation of sticking a dick inside a pussy is outweighed by the unpleasing emotional/mental sensation of not feeling loved by the woman. Like taking heroin: sure, it'll give you a buzz but then you get the comedown and withdrawal. People can be heterosexual but still more interested in emotional sensations than physical sensations. Diapers give me both a physical and emotional buzz; love is the ONLY worthwhile alternative that interests me!
Love as like a radio frequency. Every conversation you have with anyone happens on a certain wavelength, love occurs when the frequency resonates at a specific pitch. If I meet a woman who resonates on the same emotional frequency as me then I'd call that love. I speak from experience and at its best the love was fantastic! But unfortunately I ended up losing the signal and I wasn't able to tune in anymore.
6 (Hungry For Sex): Depends how hungry you are...as I said, I have no problem satisfying myself therefore I never let myself get so hungry that I'd eat any old junk.
7 (I Love Myself): I refer the honourable gentleman to the reply I gave some monents ago...ie love ain't just infatuation. I agree, being infatuated with myself would be just meaningless vanity. However, loving myself means to me forgiving myself, standing up for myself, not giving up on myself and living with my DL side. Loving myself also means being tough and hard on myself sometimes, not giving myself fake praise when it's undeserved.
AND FINALLY:
Love is to me like a radio frequency. Every conversation I have with anyone happens on a certain wavelength, love occurs when the frequency resonates at a specific pitch! If I meet a woman who resonates on the same emotional frequency as me then I'd call that love. I speak from experience and at its best the love was fantastic! But unfortunately I ended up losing the signal and I wasn't able to tune in anymore.
I'm not lonely, I'm not bored, I do get horny from time to time sure but I can always take care of that myself. I get my self-worth through my work and art. I don't need a woman for any of that. The only thing I need from a woman is something that roughly corresponds to my definition of LOVE.
Sorry if this boring other people...feel free to skip this post if it ain't interesting to ya!
