My Twisted Interpretation of Love

Discussion in 'Sex, Love & Relationships' started by belts, Oct 21, 2014.

  1. You know what's sick? Love is like terminal cancer.
    It multiplies like the cells in your body. It grows larger each day, consuming your entire body, soul, and mind. It can be suppressed through time and force, but no matter what treatment you use, it always comes back. This time stronger than before. It once again takes a hold of you until it is impossible to quell. It withers you away until your final days approach. But what makes these incurable diseases so different is that when you take your final breath, the cancer no longer exists. It dies when you die. But the love, it stays. Because love is eternal.

    Love is eternal, like cancer. That's beautiful.  You should fire that one off to Hallmark and make bank.
     
  3. So why do 50% of married couples divorce?
     
  4. I thought it was called a conscious uncoupling now?  lol
     
    I think marriage isn't for everybody, but they play it off to people like everybody is going to fall in love and then get married. Like somehow getting married and being in love are somehow related.  Marriage was supposed to be a monetary contract, two families "joining their houses" to make them stronger. It had absolutely nothing to do with being faithful or being in love, although some people were in love and were faithful. They had to do it out of necessity in order to survive and thrive in those times.
    In these times we are made to believe that marriage is something different, like "If you really love me you'll marry me". The sickest thing I think is happening lately is women are equating how much their men love them based on how big their stones are. Like most things, it has turned into a totally commercial and material entity that frankly most men resent, its a huge elaborate show. With lawyers being involved and the government being involved, everybody is getting paid when a couple splits up. They need to ensure that marriage seems as attractive as possible to the public in order to keep this cash cow goin'. Could you imagine how much money would be lost and how many businesses would suffer if people weren't blowing the money they do when they get married? Nevermind the wedding itself, but all those little fees here and there they tuck in. Oh you need a license. Oh you gotta pay to submit that license. Etc. 
     
    That being said, I'm married. lol 
     
     
     
  5. You lost me with the women and the stones comment. But it's your opinion. Cool thread. I was just wondering
     
  6.  
    I think the "women and the stones" thing goes hand in hand with that study that says that women with larger engagement rings end up divorced more so then women with small stones on their rings.
     
    Basically, ifs the women that expect their men to take out a loan to buy their rings and then wonder why their men are resentful 4 years later when he is still paying for that ring on her spoiled little finger.  Granted he is an idiot for doing it, but thats probably why they ended up together. :)
