Truly anlayzing this topic for me...Thanks!

I'm young and average too and I don't nor ever had it. It's not a big deal

Love can be a wonderful thing

There is something even stronger than skepticism, though. And no one is more surprised by that than I am.

You're saying love is stronger than skepticism? I don't know about that. I tried the whole "love" thing once, but a broken nose, crushed ego, and one baby later...I'm backing up.

Get a Landmaster they're fun and also an "l" word

Makes me want to bob my head

excuse me?

To the music dirty mind

Me too....but I wouldn't be able to do hard-bitten and cynical with any real conviction on this one....

"Love is patient
love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not..." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Yeah, I think love is stronger than skepticism. Mainly because I have a tremendous degree of control over my skepticism (the reality of it is that it's more of a tool I use for humor and perspective than it is an actual mindset) and very little over love.

I'm not saying it's easy or even worth it, most of the time. It's not. I've been in so many bad relationships, my car has a revolving door. But I did find a good one once, and there's this idea that if there can be one good one, there (hypothetically) could be another one. It can't hurt to check. It's not like I have anything better to do.

Wait...I love God and my family, but that's it for now.....

Love seems stupid. Every time you love something it ends up leaving you.

Wow you could bum and old lady out real fast all you young things worrying over love. Just jump out there and be yourself. If you kiss a few frogs I promise it doesn't give you warts. Have a good time, grow. learn, experience, and while you are busy love will sneak up and tap you on the shoulder and ask you to dance. You all are so beautiful and smart and blessed; my word I don't think any of you are homeless, or sick, or probably even unemployed unless you are in school. Evidently you are hooked up with a phone and computer and the truth be told probably ate a good meal tonight. Come on flirt a little and lighten up. You all love something. List five things and get this party started. Someone one is bound to like something you like or know someone who does. Give me a break. Walt Disney was a fat old man who had imagination enough to see the beauty in life and work to master being good at something. That isn't anything that you can't do. Fall in love with yourself and you will be surprised how fast the world will fall in love with you.

It's not easy..that's for damn sure! I've had one REALLY bad relationship(my one and only marriage) and that was enough for me.I'm checking to see what's out there... believe me. I've found fun times and pure crazy people, but no true connection. I know...stop trying and it will find me.I've heard that before..I guess maybe I'm just in a rut.

I had one, also. One time. Enough so that I know it exists, but then everyone else pales in comparison, too. Sigh.

Wow impressed by the advice, but kissing frogs will give you warts!

well said pacific...


"love is the only sane and satisfactory answer
to the problem of human existence"

One would hope one's partner would be able to vocalize which one (or both) applies.
