I will opose those of you who believe in love. I once did and look where it landed me! In hell!!!!!! (or at least thats what it feels like most of the time.) After my last relationship ended I gave up and realized that love is a lie that you let yourself believe.
"The past is a dark figure that haunts you so you remember the mistakes you have made and you live with them.... forgetting is impossible"
Even if it is a 'lie', it's a nice 'lie' while it lasts. One or two bad experiences in love shouldn't put you off the whole concept.. Whether it be loving an individual in a relationship, loving others as friends, loving yourself or loving the country you live in... Love's important - Be it a lie or not. Without love, there is no passion. Without passion, we'd all be boring bastards

i dont think love is a lie. but without love there are many important HUMAN things we could never have. even if it doesnt go too well atleast you can say you've been there and done it. some people dont get that luxury. but now you have a choice...or you going to wallow and let it consume you. or are you going to live and leave it in the past where it belongs.
Yeah, I've been there and done that and I'm just tired of being burned. It's not just with the oppisite sex either. My mom did the same shit to me. She thought other people were more important than me.

I hope you don't oppose love for long. It is real, and very important. It's also dynamic, it doesn't last forever. It changes constantly as you and the world change. The important part is to recognize that so that when love ends you can bid it adieu with respect and honor. I wish less people had the problems you've described, it's so hard to recognize it and let it be a part of your life when other people do such a good job of sucking you dry...
Sobek, my biggest problem is that if I am in love then I pretty m uch let ppl change me. They ask me to do things or not to do things and to keep them happy I do or don't do it. That's not love and I woke up one day and realized it. Then 2 days later I realized my mom didn't love me cause she kicked me out b/c I had broken up with her best friends son.

I tried to change for a few guys I thought I loved. Then I realized I needed to find someone who loved me for me, and all the millions of flaws that come with. And I did, which is amazing. Flinch, love is a roller coaster that puts every theme park ride to shame. Because there are unbelievable highs and the absolute lowest of lows. However, all the twists and turns, and surprises that come with being in love with someone of the opposite sex (or same) are well worth the those absolute lows as long as you're with the right person. Just remember, someone that wants you to change isn't someone you want to be with. Life without love isn't really living at all. And remember, we've known each other for a while, and I hate to be corny, but I love you. You can always talk to me through pm if you need someone to spill your problems too.
Well, here comes another sucker for love.
I believe love exists because we wouldn't have civilization without it. And no, I'm not one of those "with out the traditional family structure we're hozed" either. NO. I'm talking about the love you have not only for that sig other, but the people that help you out in a crisis, too. The problem with loving humans is that they have flaws, and when those flaws show it can feel like betrail. The thing is, without that love, with out that trust, we wouldn't exist.
The important thing is to keep looking for those people who truly are worth your time. They do exist. Hell, I found a number of people who are very dear to me. They aren't perfect, they sometimes do things that hurt me... but generally speaking they don't mean to hurt me. The problem is, with other people you don't know everything that effects their situation. You don't always know exactly why they make one decision over another. But those decisions don't always speak the whole truth. It's a difficult thing.
The whole point of family are the people you put up with because you know them. You know who they are and they will do their best by you. That best may not always be what you want it to be, but it's still important. I still go to visit my cousin even though he's in jail for murder. I still love him, even though he did something horrible. He wasn't the greatest person to me, either, but I don't want him to be alone. I believe he did what he did because he was alone, and that if he'd been in contact with us, it wouldn't have happened. Sometimes connections to other people are more important overall than individual issues. It's hard to explain. But a life without love in all it's many forms is a dark and depressing thing, indeed.

lol flaws are interesting things. for the most part i tend to find the flaws of my loved ones quite charming in thier own way. except for my little brother who is an example of the "entire flawed concept" like the buildings with an unsound foundation.
