"Love means having to say you're sorry 43% of the time ..."

Men in Trees

Love means: Absolutely nothing when it's not returned... Save it for soemone who's worth it!

...and how to know who's worth it?

if you have a single moment's real doubt or have to make excuses, they arent!

'Love means heinz'
or is that beans? I get it confused sometimes
'love is the greatest thing'?

'love is all around'?
'love is soft squishy and slightly damp'

come on, life's not that mushy

It is sometimes Love means, differnt things to differnt people

ye, but somehow everybody more or less the same...not exactly, but basically - the same

eh

anyway, love means to look at smb eyes and get carried away, without any idea of time (time this moment tends somehow to stop), season (how cold it is now!)or location (in other words reality). A bit of extraordinary stuff

....putting up with all sorts of $h1t that you wouldn't have to if you didn't care.

hrm... I disagree but there we go...

Recognizing his faults but loving him anyway.

Being loved for your faults.

Buying flowers ... just in case, I've forgotten something or to apologise for something that I have done, but forgotten!

love means: someone else's happiness being essential to your own, and for that to be returned in equal measure.

Love means never having to say your ugly.

According to a poster for a horror movie featuring Dr Phibes, can't remember the title.

If anyone has a definitive answer to this please let me know.

IMO posting #2 pretty much covers it... if you want it simple, that's where it is.

If you want it complicated, try this:

together, your cups should overflow. (i.e. both should be more, with the other, than they are alone, and that applies to their whole lives, not just with regard to one another)
together, there should be no doubt.
together, there should always be a way.


As soon as the balance is lost, for any reason, you start to leak happiness and love like there's no tomorrow and restoring the love, happiness and trust takes a lot of commitment from both sides.

Honesty is the only way to make sure the wound is cauterised as it is inflicted and is the only way to make sure the trust doesn't get broken, only bruised.

that do ya?

"love means: someone else's happiness being essential to your own, and for that to be returned in equal measure."

Never expect love to be returned equally. Never think it's your job to make the other happy. Or you're on a fast track to...

"Love means: Absolutely nothing when it's not returned... Save it for soemone who's worth it!"
