I love my wife. I don't know if she still loves me, but I still love her.

Why? Because she is a wonderful woman, and she deserves to be happy, no matter what.

Man that sucks.

Mines nothing like that, but I'm good friends with the guy and we had a thing (more than friends but not an actual relationship) for awhile and then we both realised that right now anything between us wouldn't work out and it had the possibility of ending badly so we decided to just be friends. I know he never felt for me the same as I did for him, and I know it's for the best cause I would have gotten hurt if it went on longer. But it's just so damn hard to see him with his new g/f.

I love lots of people: my seven grandchildren, my five children, some really close friends. I love all of them because they are kind and loving people, and because I choose to love them. I love my wife of 35 years too, because I choose to, because she's a kind and loving person, and because she has had the sheer intenstinal fortitude to put up with me for this long! :D

For all the same reasons as when we met 16 years ago, plus some which have developed since that time. I can count on him, I can rely on him, he's fun to be with, he laughs at my puns, he calls me on my stuff when I need to be called on my stuff and forgives me when I make a mistake, and besides being my lover and partner he's my best friend.

- My boyfriend, cos he's wonderful in basically every way. Cute, intelligent, charming, funny, you name it. ;) I love him in the "I'd prolly die for you" sort of way. Except, really, it's more of a "I'd die for you without a second thought". :fluffle:
- My mom, cos she's amazing, and sticks up for me even when I don't deserve her good opinion.
- My dad, cos even though he's strict as bloody hell and rages at me like anything, I still have the most intelligent conversations with him, and he's basically one of the best influences in my life. I do my best to remember that when he won't even acknowledge my presence. :rolleyes:

That's the thing. You can't define true love. It's simply a condition beyond human comprehension. Sounds like you remember it rather well, but it is buried under mountains of misery.

How can one know love when all they know is hate? I thought I loved once but was a fool tho think they loved me. aside from family I 'love' no one. love of that kind brings pain and suffering. its not worth trying.

Aha! So I was right. It most certainly does bring pain and suffering, unless Karma decides you shall have your love to promote a bad Karmaic relationship with everyone who has lost such love. Either way it's a disaster.

Lust is related, no? It felt like love at the time...but I mean, how can you love someone when it isn't reciprocated? Is that possible? I don't think so, myself. Using my line of thinking there, that would also rule out Cabra's "someone who loves someone else", wouldn't it?

Fair enough, I suppose. But don't you think your love is hindered by the lack of reciprocation?

...to put it in a stupid way, when someone puts up a wall, it's a bit hard to see the garden. That's what i've found, anyway...all the people i've cared for like that have ended up distancing themselves from me, and i've found myself unable to continue "loving" them.

sure lust is related, it is all subjective anyway.
I'm a bit confused though on how your feelings couldn't be love if it wasn't reciprocated. That would mean that you could love nobody until they loved you, but they cannot love you until you love them! :(

Nope, doesn't work

No, lust is not related. Lust is physical confusion that the weak-minded confuse for love. And that is the point of true love, that it transcends condition. It is an irrefutable constant.

That's a point, but I think for "love" to be real, it should at least have some small hope of it being returned...surely...and is perhaps best as something that develops more or less together. Otherwise I think it can eventually get quite messy. Can you love someone who has rejected you? Someone who wants nothing to do with you? Someone who hates you?

Because if you keep persisting, that simple progression can easily be the end result.

No, lust is not related. Lust is physical confusion that the weak-minded confuse for love. And that is the point of true love, that it transcends condition. It is an irrefutable constant.

Is lust a purely physical thing, though? Can emotional attachments develop into lust, rather than love?

I think it is all a terribly subjective thing and not quite as clear-cut as you make it out to be.

That's a point, but I think for "love" to be real, it should at least have some small hope of it being returned...surely...and is perhaps best as something that develops more or less together. Otherwise I think it can eventually get quite messy. Can you love someone who has rejected you? Someone who wants nothing to do with you? Someone who hates you?

Because if you keep persisting, that simple progression can easily be the end result.
But that's usually just if you're a stalker. :p

I think it's all about what you expect from the person. We are good friends, and that's enough for me, really.

Fair enough. I only hope you can continue that friendship considering the circumstances...I have proven less than adept at that in the past. If you can do it, that makes you a better person than I, I guess.

Gah, i'm off to bed. Damn this thread for keeping me up! :p

No, not stupid. I've killed a couple of friendships through stupid romantic desires that I would *much* rather have kept. If you can get past that and keep the friendship, all power to you, because i've been too weak as a person to do so in the past.

By "physical thing" I mean it is a visual and/or smell/based stimulus exciting various chemical releases in the body which provide an euphoric sense. Lust develops because of the basic human drive to reproduce, accepting all likely candidates to produce an offspring. When choices are available, the psychological preference rules, making those to whom one is already emotionally attached seem prime candidates for the task.

You aren't a believer of "true love" or "soul mates" are you? :(
Love to me is pretty much the level above liking someone. Really caring for for someone and possibly the desire to put their well-being above your own. It doesn't have to be returned for you to do or feel any of the above, though it would be preferable.

Not really, no. I've never felt evidence to the contrary and it seems an extremely silly concept that out of the billions of people on this planet, there is only one perfect "soul mate" or "true love". There are some people I emotionally "click" with a hell of a lot more than others, but i've met more than one person like that.

And there are quite a few people who I care for and might even go so far as to put their well-being above my own. That doesn't mean I am in love with them.

My family, first of all. My parents are fantastic, to say the least. My siblings are too, though I don't always get along with them as I wish I did.

I love my friends too. Adam especially, though note I speak of a friend loving a friend, not anything romantic and the like. We just...click. Incredibly so, almost.

I also love my girlfriend Chelsea. We've been going out together for about a month now, though we knew each other for a lot longer than that. Like with Adam, we click in an unusual way, emotionally and spiritually. I've had girlfriends in the past of course, but this is different. For instance, when I kissed my other girlfriends, there was the physical pleasure...but it didn't feel like all that much more. Completely untrue with Chelsea. It's incredible.

...

Of course I could just be deluding myself. =/

I know a guy named Adam. Great guy. He's a little like a younger brother to me. Though not like my real younger brother who's only three.

You're a freshman... college or high school?

I'm a sophomore in high school and I love my boyfriend... far more than I realized, until I cracked under end-of-term stress, broke up with him, then went home and cried for over an hour and begged to change my mind the next day. Thank god it worked out and we're back together. And the craziest week of the trimester is over. And I'll sure as hell be prioritizing our time together more now. We haven't had any proper time alone since January...

Hey! That's almost just like me!
Except it wasn't over end-of-term stress, it was ongoing-constant stress from his mother trying to (seriously) give me nervous breakdowns, but, I suffer more without him, so, next day. We've seen each other once a month this year.. although I haven't seen him yet this month, (that's twice this year I've seen him, to clarify) and I've become convinced she's trying to get rid of me without telling me to go away.
However, I am stubborn. And we do really well together without her fucking it up. We'll have been together for a year and a half in May.

What is odd though is he is the first person who I first thought was ugly and then thought was gorgeous because of his personality.

Romantically, my high-school girlfriend was the only one who approached love, or at least I felt more strongly about her than anyone else I've dated or met since. But, we didn't work out and had a friendly break-up our senior year, and still IM each other from time to time.

I walk 47 miles of barbed wire,
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house by the roadside,
Made outta rattlesnake hide.
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of a human skull,
Come on take a little walk with me, baby,
And tell me, who do you love?

"You make me sad." It seems you've confused the pangs of lust for the joy/misery that is love.
