Love is when I fucking shove my fist down your throat for asking such a cliche question when the answer is, and will always be: however you perceive your current self to be over 43% content with the human next to you, whom you've always fancied referring to as "my future ex-husband", for the long run. Never for eternity, but for as far as the road will take you. Giving the choice to love freely and to leave just as freely is the greatest gift of all.

What a fucking idealist.

Love is pure, selfless and best expressed in action.

What an angry person.
You've had a lot of bad relationships, huh?

Love is blind = blinded by lust
i.e.: "Yeah, they were pretty amazing in bed and everything, but jesus were they a fucking nut case"

When you're blinded by lust, you subconciously choose a selective view of the person, because you want to believe in your heart of hearts that this is "the one" who will accompany you to your death bed. You notice the positive traits which fit into your ideal of "perfection" or goddamn well near perfection, but you fail to see the negative attributes that can and will be a major turn off later down the line after the "honeymoon phase". Which of course, that is why they say, "love is blind". However, it's not really love now is it? If it were, you would've already made good compromise to accept the entire package, not just fragments of what you want to pick out and keep from the very beginning. Why else is divorce rate up to 60% these days?

I adore how you quickly assumed my supposed anger due to the fact that "I've had a lot of bad relationships". Quite the contrary dear, I've only ever been in one official relationship, but that was when I was incredibly young and naiive and went into it out of pity. Of course, that isn't to say that I haven't been in various other open relationships where I propose my terms of "free to be affectionate (never love, because I never allow myself to keep the attributes I see fit and ignore the others) and free to leave" as solid boundaries. I know better than to fool myself into thinking that what I am feeling at the current moment is love, rather than carnal desire.

I know what "love is blind" means. I never said it was a good thing. However, it doesn't always refer to lust as I'm also talking about people who see the good in people outside of relationships. I mean, I have loads of -friends- who are just plain terrible people, but I set that aside and appreciate their qualities because I love them anyway. Once again, probably not the best thing to do, but whatever.

So basically, you've never felt real love because you base everything on sex?
Actually, I'm not entirely interested in hearing more of your life story.

the man and woman love is the desire to leave offsprings, after all. there are no 'pure love' among them.

Then you're not blinded by love, now are you? You've already recognized their faults, but it seems that you are testifying the fact that you'd rather just ignore the flaws and look at the positives.

I'm going to call you an idealist, once again, if the above inferred is relatively true.

Oh, and if you're "not entirely interested in my sex life", don't leave it in your post in the first place.

Okay? I do recognize their faults, but I sort of forget about them most of the time, and I'm just using the whole "blinded by love" thing as and express--oh, Hell. This is boring me now.

But seriously, thanks. I haven't had a good ol' fashioned arguement about something stupid like personal opinions on the interwebs in a long time.

Love is like a rubik cube only a few can solve it!!
