what have you learned from your past relationships?

[bob]

i've learned that you have to love yourself before you can love another.

i've also learned that feeling the aura of someone elses love for you is a gift that must be harnessed delicately. its powers may satisfy you and strengthen aspects of yourself. but as it created you, it can destroy you. never forget where you are and where you came from. you are still jenny from the block, and if you get carried away, then you will be dragged further from your origin. you will turn around one day as the smoke clears, alone.

confidence is the greatest thing you can give a person. it is also the most dangerous.

never take anything for granted.


oh and don't let shoeboxes collect in your closet.

once a slut, always a slut.

and

you can take the girl out of the trailor park, but you can't take the trailor park out of the girl.


so i guess what all that means if that, don't believe what a girl is like, till you've met her family and known her for a while.

[bob]

^^dude didn't you see maid in manhattan? they took jenny from the block and turned her into a princess.

IT CAN HAPPEN.

[PHUNK]

hah

ya you can dress someone differently. but they are still sluts and are still uncultured. it was the same with my ex. people told me she was all of the above, but i thought she had changed. but of course she didn't. it just took a few months to see it.

I've realised that women are poison, sweet poison but poison nonetheless.

seriously though, I've realised that there is a big difference between being happy because of the person you're in a relationship with and being happy because a person likes you.

[~snow*white~]

i've learned that you cant always seem to expect too many things in a relationship. things happen for a reason wether it is good or bad. you have to accept the decisions that the boy makes or that you even make yourself. those are the big things that i've learnt so far.....i believe what liqwid is saying...you do learn more when you get older.

[Baby_10]

i have learned that you should know them as a best friend first then trying to make them your best while together, and to not give someone so many chances to the point your sucked in to the point where you cant escape

[deja]

dont go looking for love, it will find you. if the relationship just isnt working and you've tried everything, then it's over. if you're not happy, then you're relationship isnt worth it.. even if you "love" him. love isnt all it is cut out to be, and if you're not satisfied, then it isnt love at all.

you will find someone that loves you for who you are, and will see past your faults and will acknowledge all your good. someone that will love you no matter what.

trust me... those kind of people do exist! i found one. =)

[vesperstina]

you can tell a lot about a person by looking into/at their eyes, if they're right for you, if they love you, truth, obliqueness, distane, etc, etc.

what i learned from my "not-quite-a-relationship" is that i shouldn't be so shy regarding people that i'm interested in, cuz if i had made my move a lot earlier, we could have had some good times (we met 12 days before he left for school in Toronto)

so my new theme song
kylie minogue 'nothing to lose'

"gotta take a chance
gotta make a move
got everything to gain and nothing to lose"

that reminds me that i wanted to make a theme song thread =P

^^^I think I have that problem.

and that sometimes love isn't enough to hold a relationship together.

if you believe that, then your problem lies within what you believe love is. if you believe love is just butterflies in your stomach, perfect chemistry and a blowjob 4-6 times a week, then yea-- love probably isn't enough to hold a relationship.

but if love is a whole buncha things that keep your life and the people in your life together, then what else do you need? (yes a blowjob 4-6 time as week is included in this package)

^nah I agree with phatisphat

love is just an emotion.feeling.attraction isn't it? If you're including other factors such as whether he/she is considerate towards you then you're assessing the relationship, not love

and it's true.. Even if you love some one there are factors that can play into the steadiness of the relationship.. If some one you loved cheated on you 10 times would your love be enough to convince you to stay with them, forever?

[bob]

love is not one-way
so IN THEORY, the other person wouldn't have cheated in the first place.

thus, LOVE is all you need.

[bob]

and when i say 'need', i mean NEED.

you can get by on JUST love... it'll just deteriorate faster thanks to GAP commercials and jennifer lopez movies

[yoko*]

do you deny the possibility that some one who is in love can find it in themselves to cheat on their lover?

I think it's possible. And that was only one extreme example. Not a really good one either..

For example, even if you love some one, it's possible that they do something to you/to themselves that you find is hard for you to forgive. Whether or not it was intentional isn't the issue. If being around them is a constant reminder of the pain that they have/they do cause you.

But that's all personal opinion,
now gimme my soupy chicken :(
