Love

[Homicidalheathen]

Do you believe in a soul connection......something ment to be......or do you think all love and romance is, is....a chemical reaction in the brain brought about to make us procreate and raise young? And don't tell me both and try to confuse me, I was up late last night.

[TygerLili]

I don't believe in "soulmates" in the romantic sense. That's something Hallmark invented IMO.

I believe that certian people click with each other right away, but I don't think that has anything to do with love, it means that you think the same way, and have had similar experiences. Most of the people in my life I've felt the strongest connections with are people I've never been romantically involved with, and love, even platonic love, is something that takes a while to develop.

[Scary Guy]

Love is something invented to make people like me miserable.

Why oh why can't I be a Dalek

[Homicidalheathen]

I believe in a soul connection and a bit of predestiny but that it is not set in stone.

-i believe in soul connections because i HAVE them... and have had them in my life MANY times.

not only romantic ones.

a few examples, my sister and i have a soul connection. a very strong one. my mom and i have a soul connection. my friend Karl and i have a soul connection. Paul and i have a soul connection..

-as far as "meant to be".. this is HARD because we make our life what it is.

really, we choose who we are with.

we choose how to treat that person, and if we arent careful with the heart given to us, a relationship wont stick.

i believe if you really want a partner to share your life with, a prayer may bring who will match you perfectly.

-each choice brings new people across our path.. not "meant to be", more like "happened upon".. haha

... when we find ourselves finishing one anothers sentences and nodding our heads continually during conversation.. SOUL CONNECTION = having many THINGS in common and compatible PERSONALITIES.

its so nice to find these types of relationships/people

-as far as a chemical reaction in the brain? i think the reaction is a lil south of the brain

when i had these "reactions" in my youth.. **clears throat** well, it didnt last, we will say it that way.

So, i believe in soul connections because i HAVE them.

"meant to be" and "chemical reactions"-- not so much.

i think there would be a lot less things that we would be thinking about in a mate if kids were the main objective. i really believe in soul mates and connections and that things are meant to be. maybe not just one tho, i think that maybe there are a few "soul mates" for each person and that depending on what you do in your life and what paths you take will depend on which one you meet and grow old with. i didnt use to believe in them but beeing where i am right now i cant deny that they exsist!

Love stinks.

Yeah yeah

[kellygrrrrrl]

I question what "love" is now at this point having met some folks that I could possibly concider "Soul Mate" material....opened my eyes wide up......I wonder now. Too little too late, as the contract has been signed dated and sealed ya know?

I stick with the love I know...the love that has taken time to get, the love that has taken effort and work and compromise, and energy....and and and...that and I'm bound by law and order.

the only love I've known....

so why I am not completely happy?

Does misery love company?

You forgot to ask: Why do birds poop on newly washed cars?

entropy!?

[know_buddy_kares]

I've been through enough to know it exists... even that really annoying kind where you'll never see that person ever again.... and still have a soft spot for them somewhere... i haven't really felt all that much of it in years, but I know it's out there, i've felt it before so that's proof enough for me to know it exists. Alot of it takes time and effort, and much work... however if the person isn't willing to put in the emotional effort along with you.. it's really not worth trying.

[kellygrrrrrl]

You know, that makes so much fucking sense it makes me laugh and sick all at the same time!

Like, why didn't I see it like that? Shoot.

[Msterbeau]

entropy!?

Which definition?

Life is about asking the right questions at the right time.

i think love comes in many flavors, as do soulmates - i don't think that there's just "1" for anyone - i think that we meet many people in our lives who are meant to make an impact, and who will hold special places in our hearts from that point on - i think people can love/be in love with more than one person at a time - although i take issue with the thought of "pre-destiny" it's been my experience that there are certain people you're meant to be with/develop relationships with, and that one will meet many of these people in their lifetime - i think people are much too hung up on the "posession" aspect of love/relationships, and ruin a good thing by allowing jealously/selfishness to rule them - i think, when you've met the right people, love is meant to be shared, and not hoarded...

(i'm not sure how clear that came out, or if it even makes sense, but that's how the thoughts came into my head, so that's how i wrote them. ask me for clarification, if you wish, although i'm not sure if i'll be able to elaborate...)

Can agree with that for a life time.

Love is the reason drug companies sell Aspirin.

Some people might "fit" and have the right circumstances for it to seem like they're soul mates; I think it's more the odds than anything, I'm not a spiritual person anymore so I don't believe in actual soul mates. I think you can develop a very deep, profound compatibility with another person romantic or not, which is something I know through experience. I think there's a much better chance of finding a perfect conflict in life (ex: getting drunk and fighting house plants), then a perfect person to conflict with.

because you have some ditch digging to do.

by the way when your in that ditch look for my initials carved in the mud.

I know that ditch extremely well.

its a good ditch.

What about twins? I don't like to think they are tied at the waist or anything...but.......

They are born together which is kinda like mother natures way of ensuring they are together in life somewhat.

Just there are all these stories of twins being separated at birth only to find they live 2 houses down from one another later on or something.....?

I saw a special on it and it was truely amazing.

Something is going on there.....I will never totally understand it but its fun to watch how close they are.

(lots of twins in my family)

all the "twin synchronicity" theories can be explained by a combination of being genetic clones and 95% of the time being reared in the exact same environment.... but if I believed in the existence of "souls," I'd call identical twins soul mates.

[Onyx]

Ah, all you poor unromantic souls. All the sweet agony and ecstasy you will never live!

My black heart bleeds for you all.

not really

I've come to believe we are all walking self-fulfilling prophecies. I've seen men who believe that all women are sluts and sure enough, every single woman they find cheats on them, and I've seen women who go from one abusive violent relationship to another, basically the same man in a different body.

We need to stop, step off the dance floor and make our own selves happy first, learn to love who we are and make ourselves happy. A healthy human being will attract another healthy human being.

Sometimes the lack of drama is a hard thing to get used to. I think I'll manage though.
