Lakeside_runner Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 somehow your post made me feel uncomfortable. It sounds like a man who loves you is a little puppy and for his kind behavior he gets rewarded... I don't think that's the way it's supposed to be. I rather like the sound of: "A man who loves you picks you up at the airport. A man who doesn't love you 'has' to pick you up at the airport."
Butterflying Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 Maybe this should be: "A man who loves you WANTS to pick you up at the airport. A man who doesn't love you DOESN'T WANT to pick you up at the airport." But the point is definately made!
shellyagal Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 When love is there we don't feel any burden of picking up anyone from anywhere. Try it out if the other person loves you the same way as u do. You can send an anonymous crush to your heart throb using AAfter search box. They only disclose your identity if your crush feels the same way as you do. Here is what you need to write in the search box: crush:your email: email of crush 1 : email of crush 2 : email of crush 3 then click web search button. Let the magic of love makes all of you happy.
Art_Critic Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 'gets' to pick you up at the airport. A man who doesn't love you 'has' to pick you up at the airport. In both cases he still has to pick her up.. In the first case you are assuming it is a privilege to pick her up.. Now he may choose to make her feel this way or make her feel he has to pick her up.. Either way.. isn't this sort of outlook kinda childish on the woman's side ? If a woman ties picking her up at the airport and how it is presented to love then we are all screwed..
Author Pink Cupcakes Posted May 9, 2010 Author Posted May 9, 2010 (edited) Actually this is from a movie I just saw. The guys are giving the guy crap for having to leave the guy time to go pick up his girlfriend at the airport and say she 'has him by the balls'. He replies 'I see it as I 'get' to pick her up at the airport. you see it as I 'have' to pick her up at the airport.' I guess I wasn't seeing it from the woman's side as a test or anything, it's just that, like another poster stated, they see it as a privilege to get to see you, not as a burden to have to drive to pick you up.

Yes, I agree with that. If it's seen from the guys perspective it has a different flavor and this is how I view this issue too.
Feelin Frisky Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 'gets' to pick you up at the airport. A man who doesn't love you 'has' to pick you up at the airport. Truer words were never spoken.
harmfulsweetz Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 It's not just about picking up at various places, it's kind of like doing things for the one you love isn't about having to do them, but wanting to do them, feeling happy that they get to make that person happy. i.e. some people may say they have to make dinner for their SO, and others may say they get to make dinner/want/are slight variations but all mean the same thing. A person who has to do something isn't doing it out of love, they are doing it because it's a chore and they have to. A person who does it out of love enjoys the act, and receives as much out of it as the receiver, they get satisfaction out of doing something nice for someone.
Rorschach Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 I'm not sure if I like the particular example but I definitely agree with the general sentiment. I think the moment I realized I was no longer in love with my ex was the time she asked me to do something for her and I really hated doing it, I still did it but I mean I really felt put out by her asking. In the beginning of the relationship I had no problem doing these things, for whatever reason it didn't bother me at all. I want to feel that way again...
alphamale Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 'gets' to pick you up at the airport. A man who doesn't love you 'has' to pick you up at the airport. either way he's picking you up at the airport and thats all that counts

If a woman ties picking her up at the airport and how it is presented to love then we are all screwed.. I read it from the perspective of someone in an LDR. And, yeah, when your SO is continually late in picking you up at the airport or station, every single freaking time, when it only takes 10-15 minutes to drive there, it does start to make you wonder whether they even care that you're bothering to travel to see them in the first place.
Author Pink Cupcakes Posted May 10, 2010 Author Posted May 10, 2010 either way he's picking you up at the airport and thats all that counts I disagree.
sumdude Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 When I'm in a relationship with someone I love? If they've been away a while I can't wait to see them so of course I want to be there.
