Two Cans and String

Closed

It’s a website :D
Where you can posts your questions and answer a few questions… The whole thing is anonymous. I found it randomly.

But that’s not the main point of the post.
Out of boredom I asked questions like “what’s your biggest fear”, “what’s your favorite color?” and…
What is love?
The answers I got are: 3 “Baby, don’t hurt me” and 1 “baby, don’t hurt me no more”
“an illusion of the mind”
“nothing”
“a lie to get money from you”
“a cold beer”
“when you need somebody to feel whole. like you couldnt be yourself without them when theyre gone; your a mess”

So what would you say if someone ask you “what’s love”?

Love is the feeling of being complete and wanting to complete the other person. It’s when you feel like it’s enough that you love this person so you need not ask for more. Having someone to love feels like that person somehow makes up for all the lackingness in your life and then somehow, you feel whole,even if you lack so many things and even when the world’s falling apart.

Having someone to love makes up for all the lackingness in your life…like you can say “I want so many things but I don’t need to have them to be happy. I just need you.”

What is love? I’m not sure but I know that it’s the elevating, warm feeling I have when I’m with the people I love.

To quote “I’m afraid that unconditional love isn’t really love at all”

Love is what your heart tells you, you cherish. Something you have a strong bond to and would risk your life to defend.

Unconditional love is what your head tells you, you should love. But deep in your heart there is a reason for it being unconditional love and you know you cannot truly “love” it/them for it. However the by-products tend to be the same.

I voted this as quotable, Michael. I thought it was an excellent response. It put a little smile on my face. :-)

I felt like, “Maybe I’m supposed to respond or react somehow to jj’s compliment, but I don’t know what to say.” So then I clicked on the “love” under her reply and decided to mention, for anyone who seriously cares what love is or isn’t, jjlove has whole essays on the subject, only a link or two away. Have fun reading!

also, another difference between conditional and unconditional love. unconditional love is almost expected, whereas conditional love is rather more spontaneous

Love’s a deep form of friendship, romantic love being with someone you’re attracted to. Trusting them to never do anything purposefully against you and knowing that you could forgive them if they do.

I don’t even know how to explain — there’s little use trying to talk about how hard it can be for me to try to talk… but sometimes I’m present and conversant and I feel you and them and it’s a nice realm of common sense and sometimes the string is connected but the can is broken and all sorts of other et ceteras. Thinking of identities and “Haro” … it’s convenient to have a name to remember people by. And a personality even. But even beyond the name and personality there is the actual being who is the one I think of when I think of someone. Sorry if that’s stated ineloquently — but it’s like AlphaKnight was saying: he’s the same person as Andrew or AlphaKnight. And I noticed that I perceive those two characters differently… or maybe my understanding of him has grown a little, I’m not sure, but thinking of either ‘name’ or ‘character’, even though do perceive a different personality, I’m not actually thinking about a different person. Just a person wearing different hats, maybe. Anyway, I won’t apologize for typing this endless stream of senseless words because that seems to be what people want most from me that I forget to do, type some stuff, so here’s some stuff, enjoy. :)
