My opinion, your opinion, kofaja

But please answer this question in all sincerity,

Do you have what you look out for in a prospective partner or can you just close your eyes and marry anyone regardless of who or what he or she is?

Lol, you've gotta be kidding me, people have married even worse (knowingly) and yes i will marry a drug addict i love with the believe that i can make her a better person.
Don't act like you understand love and then proceed to use God to explain the fact that while he can love us, we humans cant love another
The same God you claim to love us gave us the commandment to love our neighbor as ourself can you explain why a God who you claimed to love us will give us this kind of commandment if he didn't think it was possible. Perhaps you've succeeded in giving him the title of being the ultimate troll

And for your second question.
do you have what you look out for in a prospective partner

Yes i do.

can you just close your eyes and marry anyone regardless of who or what he or she is
If that were possible then i could probably marry a broom cause that right there is the most ridiculous question i've read thats why i wanted to answer it separately lol.

Know this: We never ever see the world as it is, but as we are.

All these righteous comments would have been great they are practicable.

The question is simple; can you love without a reason?

I hope lalasticlala gets this thread out for more people to contribute.

In real terms, reasons for which u love fade over time.. No one is saying u could or should love without a reason.. He's only hypothetically saying if u could , perhaps relationships and marriages would last longer

Let me tell you why some relationships last...

Its simply because of:

1.Fear of starting all over again with a new person especially when you have spent years in it.

2. You are too old to start again

3. You are no longer at a good advantage.

Most affairs you see thrive on tolerance and not love.

This is not to say there aren't long lasting affairs thriving on the genuine participation if both parties. If your above mentioned situations were real, there would be lower rates of divorce and failures.
The fact remains that there is no spelled out guidebook to keeping a relationship. Find what works for you.
Ps:Tolerance is borne out of a deep seated decision to overlook a person's flaws. So tolerance is not as far from love as you think.

Tolerance is a shock absorber for lost love.

Actually, it DEPENDS on what attracted them. If it is personality and character, it could last

Good so you agree that something actually brought them together.

Is it not apparent that if that personality and character disappears, the love will also fade leaving tolerance to set in as a shock absorber and possible an eventual break?

God bless you for that statement.. #word

Please help me ask him if he can love without a reason.

I believe there are some attributes that create a desire for the opposite sex and no one can see anyone and just decide to be with such without a mortal reason.

Re: Do you Believe In Love? by MrPresident1: 10:35pm On Sep 07, 2016
Yes. In the love of Christ that saved the world.

I dont believe in the mushy mushy hormone fuelled euphoria that modern day people call love.

YES! I believe in love. I believe in the wonder of caring so much about someone/something outside yourself. Although love is never enough in any relationship, its absence is a disaster in the making...we all definitely love for a reason.

Nna, I just taya. And women will be the first to shout how they love you or expect you to love them, meanwhile, they are the least capable of love. When a woman processes her love, be very careful and extra vigilant. There's something she wants from you, which if she doesn't get will obliterate any traces of the love she thought she had . grin grin

The only love that exists on planet earth, is the love a Mother has for her child

In Celine Dion voice " There is no other love like a Mother love for her child "

Unfortunately for me I never got to experience Mother's love, because she passed away when I was an infant.

And because of that I really don't believe in love that much, I just have this believe that no girl can give me that love because it's very rare and special.

Her demise left me kinda broken still trying to fix things up, have tried to enter into 2 relationship, things were going smoothly but along the line the thoughts of her sprang up in my head, and I became estranged from girls,

Well all am saying is that the only love that is guaranteed is Mother's love,
Outside this nothing else.


P.S and most love are conditional , that's what messed up the whole thing.

You're right. Fathers have no love for their children.

I disagree sha o.
Yes, we are attracted to certain qualities that why we even agree to date in the first place. But that in itself doesn't invalid love, it just means that there are certain traits we fancy.

What I don't believe in is love at first sight; that to me is infatuation but love built over time from spending quality time and getting to each other, that truly exists.

I believe that you have this opinion because you haven't experienced it. It's just like child birth if you have never had a child you can not claim to know the amount of pain women experience in the process.
So it's only expected that if you have never experienced true love you would conclude it doesn't exist or it's a "facade" as you call it.

Yes love only exist from God to man but anyone who believes in human love is a big fool.

Human love is a charade, a chase after the wind which is based on a condition and if the condition is no longer there, love fades and tolerance sets in with an eventual crash just for us to start looking for the right condition in another person which triggers the so called dumb words "I LOVE YOU".
Stop calling people derogatory names because they have different opinions from yours, it is like you're shouting to win an argument. If you were not ready to entertain opposing view, why did you throw open the question?
