Love isn’t a casino, and the prize is much better than ten dollars.

never been in love so i wouldn’t know

It is only worth it if you are loved back. You should never look for love, and you should always focus on bettering yourself. You can’t force love to come along. When the time is right it will happen when you least expect it.

buy the book love smart buy dr. phil. he says it is a good idea haveing “dealbreaker” qualities in a guy like if hes a drunk or an abuser, but you have to have another list of nit picky qualities that can be compromised with so you dont end up lonely. like if he has 90% of your quality and only missing 10% and has 0% of the dealbreaker qualities. i loved the book and i meet my bf of two yr. after reading it and finally broke out of the habit of picking losers.

Unfortunately, love has no rules. That’s great that you have high standards, but if said standards are too high, I’m afraid you won’t meet hardly anyone that fulfills those wants.

I just saw on a show where a woman found her “perfect” man within a few days…just because instead of deleting him (match site) like she would normally do because of her high standards, she decided to go out with him. They are now engaged.

I don’t belief in soul mates, but my mom does. Recently, she read somewhere that people do have soul mates, but the chances of meeting that one person is almost impossible in this day and age. I told her that I believe some people have multiple soul mates…it’s in how they look at the other person and not necessarily that person’s traits, that makes the relationship work.

I don’t know if love is worth you “wasting” your life chasing after something that won’t meet your expectations. I think after you develop who you are by exploring the world, you will meet someone that is a good fit…not PERFECT fit…but you do need the loosen your standards.

Love feels no burden,
thinks nothing of trouble,
attempts what is above its strength,
pleads no excuse of impossibility…
It is therefore able to undertake all things,
and it completes many things,
and warrants them to take effect,
where he who does not love would faint and lie down.
Love is watchful and sleeping, slumbereth not.
Though weary, it is not tired;
though pressed, it is not straitened;
though alarmed, it is not confounded…

if s0me0ne l0ves y0u,
be pr0ud 0f it..
it 0nly means that y0u have s0mething
that 0thers d0n’t have
s0, d0n’t let it g0 c0z it’s n0t easy t0 find s0me0ne
wh0 really l0ves y0u!

♥ love is a symbol of eternity that wipes away all sense of time removing all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.

simple yet meaningful..

Love is something the heart feels, the mind reads, and it is what makes the soul heal. Love is something everyone should believe in. You can make a wish, and just like that, you realize that you are living that wish. Love is when you don’t want to wake up because reality is better than a dream. Love is so wonderful..and at times heart wrenching..You can never let go, and were never meant to let go

Why not? We have but one life to live. If comes go for it.

Some say that love is mysterious, immeasurable, complex, intuitional, imaginary, thought-provoking, inspirational, difficult, joyous, magical,, ecstasy, and undefinable. Perhaps it is the mystery behind it that keeps men on their toes. What on earth would you rather do if not love, it’s worth your time.

“Love” is equated with “sex”?

If you “love God,” “love family of origin,” “love Fluffy,” those are worthwhile.

What is valuable about “sex as love” relationship is both intimacy and sexual chemistry, e.g. endorphin levels rising.

The endorphins rise with any sexually attractive interaction.

The endorphin levels habituate and flatten, hence “boredom,” with “vain repetitions” of “love making” in which the personal component of love no longer refreshes and sustains physical eroticism and closeness.

Hence, in looking for love, it is important to note the value of sustained personal relations. I.e., if a couple can sit at table and, without resorting to sexual energization of emotions, feel love for one another, they are in love, not in lust.

“The Most Important Year in a Man’s Life,” Woglemuth,
“Soul Mates and Twin Flames,” Elizabeth Clare Prophet,
“Sexual Force or the Winged Dragon, O. M. Aivanhov, and
“Men Are Like Waffles, Women Are Like Spaghetti,” Bill and Pam Farrel, offer different perspectives.

Regardless of interpersonal love in one’s life, it is the case that mind, will, and love are equally valuable, and should be in intrapersonal balance.
