Let's talk about love

[bluegreysky]

You're all in couples most likely, or you plan to be soon...

So when someone gets on a forum and says "love"
what's the first thing you think of?

Let's vote.

How about none of the above?

I think of self sacrifice on behalf of others.

 

[Nienna_Lady_of_Tears]

None of the above. Most instances where people on the forum say they "love" each other I see nothing but lust in their post.

ok so i should have made a "none of the above" choice on the poll? interesting. i didn't think people would neccesarily say "my honey bear"... i thought maybe it would be one of the other ones.

I suppose it depends on what context they say the word. Love is extremely broad. For some, it does indeed mean lust, but it also means self-sacrifice, commitment and things like that. When I see someone. Else say it, I assume they sincerely mean the first and second.

I voted nervousness and fear, it was certainly scary at first.
Now, love for me is when me and my boyfriend can sit together for hours playing video games when I'm just wearing his shirt (he's much bigger than me, I can wear his shirts as dresses ) and don't have make up on and we're still happy.

I ususally think of a song.....with the word love in it

 

[bluegreysky]

cute! Except there's alot of songs that are like "booo love is a hack"... did you mean one of the nice ones?

 

[The Nihilist]

None of the above. Most instances where people on the forum say they "love" each other I see nothing but lust in their post.

I'm with the false dichotomy police. You're under arrest, missy.

Also, I voted for my precious sweetheart honey bunches.
