• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's more important, Finding someone to give you their love or finding someone who will accept your love?

The first is more important, because you have the option to implement change.

Sure. I'm a guy with a huge ego that my lover can
deflate with one careless word.
Well, I don't have a huge ego, but but women have dashed me to pieces as well. Hopefully you have someone who understands you.

I don´t understand what you mean when saying "accepting your love". Could you explain that, please?
Maybe releasing your love to would be a better terminology. We all have love inside us and I suppose I'm not the only one to love someone in our past that did not love us and in the process felt badly because of the process.

I don't know how you define romantic love. My idea when I see the word romantic is that it is an idealized version of whatever the prime is. I'm looking more into the idea of a personal acknowledge mt of a person and the desire to have that person in your life because of the person they are.

Yeah, ok. The "desire" part is the important distinction, in my understanding.
Now that this has become clearer: When you desire something (attention, acknowledgement, positive emotions, sex, ...) from a person, then I think the answer to your question is "the latter, obviously".

Are you talking about male-female relationship love? Both are incomplete. Which is more important, an oxygen tank without a spacesuit, or a spacesuit without an oxygen tank?

Thank you for your response. We are talking first person here.

I loved Blade Runner. Surprising the date of his manufacturing..
