Death of a Rose flash your badge like you profiled me. 031029 ... pipedream its sad the way nobody on this page is loved the way they want to be loved. i read somewhere that according to freud when we fall in love with someone we are actually projecting ourselves onto the object of our affection, and through that we find a chance to fix the things we think are wrong with *us* by trying to change *them* into what we think is perfection. who the hell is *ever* going to make that kind of effort- to know you like you want to be known, and love you like you deserve to be loved? 'tis all bosh...mustn't ever be dependent on people for happiness...mustn't ever...nobody is yours forever. 031029 ... neesh i disagree pd, i'm sorry but i have to. i don't think it's an effort thing either, some people you just know. the chances of finding someone like that are really slim i know, but i think even if i hadn't, i'd still believe in it. freud said a lot of funny things (just look up the primal scene) but that makes sense, to look for ourselves in others. what about if you find yourself? someone who is so you they think your thoughts and say your words, and when they tell you about themselves, you have to smile and nod knowingly because it’s exactly what you do, or exactly how you think or act. this person would understand you and you would understand them like noone else. isn’t that worth looking for, worth believing in? i think so, but then i would, because i do believe in it, and i have found it. counts himself lucky 031030 ... pipedream i do agree with you there because i *have* found people like that..extraordinary luck, total chance, but i do have a handful of people exactly like that. just a handful. but that is an effortless thing, that is God doing you a favour, that is just connecting with someone in a fluid, easy thing. you don't even have to think. the real test, so to speak, comes if you bond with someone- not the magic bzzt thing we agree on, but a normal getting-along/chemistry thing- and *then* try to turn *that* into something magic. it can be done, but i think it'd take guts and a genuine desire to make someone magic for you, and that requires a lot of things that barely anyone'd be willing to give or do because it takes a lot from you. 031030 ... neesh tbh i don't really understand. it sounds a lot like when people say "i could learn to love him/her", when they know that what they feel for someone is a weak substitute for what it should be, but are making do. there are a couple of possibilities though. firstly, you could think you only get along with someone, and the more you learn about each other, the more you realise your closeness for each other. secondly, over time, if together, i guess people do become close, through perhaps habit or necessity. that's very much the case for my parent's generation, thought it wasn't *exactly* an arranged marriage, it pretty much was. i'm not sure it is possible to turn getting along into magic; as you say it would take a phenomenal amount of effort, it would practically mean totally changing at least one of the people's characters. i just don't think it can happen, because they'd have to know in the first place what to become, and if they did understand each other like that already, then they wouldn't have to change. 031031 ... pipedream noo...magic can come any time; be it the minute you meet someone or ten years after you meet them. like when friends fall in love with each other. im not denying the existence of the instant magic bond, but im also saying that magic can happen with time. and don't we always change? even if its just a little bit, we always shape ourselves differently in every situation in our lives becuase they demand different things of us. and we are always different in *some* way when we come out of experiences, good or bad. but yeah, i do see your point- change is good as long as you're not turning into someone you don't recognise any more. 031102 ... niska noo... it's a craps shoot. if you think that magically, someone will be the one for you based on a mere specualtion, then really, it can go 50-50... more often though, we're blinded by infatuation, and it's not that the other person isn't compatible - it's that we are just not looking for that to fill us up. if someone is too similar, they don't compliment our personalities. if they are too different, they don't foster them. that's why there's so many of us, and we have all the time in the world to find magic. that's why it's important to make responsible decisions based on reality, rather than possibility. that's what i think, anyway. maybe i'm wrong. i found magic from my infatuation. i really can't say it doesn't happen, but honestly, I didn't expect that it would. i'm just not that overly-romantic, i suppose. not in a 'magical' sense anyway... 031103 ... celestias shadow kiss me, you can't hurt me.... 031109 ... novathought um, yeah, im new here. and i just saw it say "take a gander" oh well. 040306 ... bizzar welcome. 040306 ... novathought well thank you bizzar. 040306 ... no reason love_me_because_you_know_me? i don't even know anymore. 051023 what's it to you? who go blather from
