Posted: 12/23/2006 10:25:15 AM | | I have to agree. True love, most definitely. If on some rare occassion, you find that fleeting thing called "true love", do you not find in that a true friend as well? | |

Posted: 12/23/2006 9:42:02 PM | Hhmmm, I suppose I'm the odd one....I think I would choose true friends because my
"true love" in the past has ended up being true disasters.....but my best friends have been there thru it all! | |

Posted: 12/25/2006 5:21:03 AM | I agree with WanderingMind...true friends first for me...then maybe someday a TRUE LOVE...maybe I'm old fashioned, but I believe the BEST ANYTHING happens between TRUE LOVES who were TRUE FRIENDS first...but it is just...

Posted: 12/25/2006 6:39:39 PM | I think both are impossible.
First of all, we have to define our terms. Just what is a "friend" exactly? Someone who will tell you the honest truth even though it may hurt you, or someone who will tell you only what you want to hear? (etc, etc.--it gets deep) We'd have to define "love" as well. Entirely self-sacrificing? Mostly self-sacrificing? Entirely reciprocal? Would they/you die to save your/their life, would they/you die for the sake of your/their happiness, etc, etc?
After we give a strict definition of what "love" and "friendship" are (and there are many!), we must decide upon the most ideal and Utopian form. Granted, this is highly subjective. We all have different ideas of what an ideal love or friendship would be, so it is doubtful we could even come into complete agreement with our perfect friend or lover. (This has to match on a subconscious level to be agreement. As we know, it is difficult for anyone to agree on anything exactly.)
We won't be able to come to a consensus here. The philosophers can't, so I doubt that we can either.
Regardless, I think this search for absolute perfection is entirely unrealistic. We must simply strive to be the best friend/lover we know ourselves capable of being. When this devotion is mutual, great friendship and love is possible.
I rather like the concept of this humanistic imperfection; it's very romanticist. Besides, if there were such a thing as "perfection", we could never surmount it. What obstacles then would serve to keep our interest? Isn't love and friendship best when tried and tested, only to be proven or improved, strong and resilient? | |

Posted: 12/26/2006 5:26:36 AM | | I think everyone on theses threads and everyone that is single should try to go for the fairy tale love.The kind of love that you would die for.The kind of love that you both pray together,as a family.The kind of love that makes you want to be a better person in whatever your doing.Dancing in the rain,making love in the rain.Just be driving down the road,you and your love.And it starts raining.Right then and there get out and dance with one another.Thats true love to me.Peace-Out | |

Posted: 12/26/2006 5:54:18 AM | Wolfie, you romantic, you! I wouldn't have guessed it. But I agree with you. Why aim low? Aim for your dreams; be highly selective, but open to the joy of authentic, deep, true love. Not only is it possible, but it's highly preferable. Too many times I read on these forums people who remind me of Thoreau's quote: "All men lead lives of quiet desperation." I, for one, refuse to live desperately in any area of my life, but most particularly, in love. I wish for you, Wolfie, the one in a lifetime kind of love that your heart desires. Just watch who you flash them fangs to; it could scare her off if she doesn't know your soft side.
Peace,
Ruthannah | |

Don't be in such a hurry to rush things! All good things come to those who wait! I had to learn that the hard way, but I'm finally getting the message! | |

Posted: 1/1/2007 6:23:09 PM | Wolfie you're wishy washy.
True friends lasts. True love... does it exist. I've seen signs of true commitment which in some marriages must be a sign of true love.
So I'll take a true friend untill true commitment comes along. And truely good sex can be had without any of the above. I'm afraid I've been hurt too much to believe in fairy tales any more.
Man, I'm a winner!! | |
