spiderowl Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Does romantic love exist any more? Do guys ever meet a girl and fall in love not just lust? If you read the forums, you get the impression that all guys think of is sex and that anything else is secondary, yet guys do get involved with a particular girl and are devastated if the relationship breaks up. At what point does a guy find that sexual attraction turns into love? Is it after a few dates, weeks of seeing a girl, months? Does he usually know it's more than a sexual attraction from very early on? Questions, questions ...
brahmabull117 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 No I consider women to be just a better version of a fleshlight
Woggle Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 It does but I do think it is harder to find these days.

Yes I'm a guy and I will tell you that all we think about is sex, I guess that is just how we are wired or how we are programmed, we can't help it. But I have to disagree on one thing and that is that not everything else in general is secondary but with sex it is constantly on our minds but we don't focus it as the one thing above all others but it ranks up there and yes I think a guy can find that sexual attraction can turn into love especially if him and the girl establish a connection right away and it builds 1
LittlePrince Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 It never existed. Women are incapable of any true feeling. They are incapable of love. A woman's goal in life is to get as much attention from as many people especially men as humanly possible while fcking over as many as she can in the process meanwhile whoring herself in every direction. Ever notice women never complain about getting sex because they are getting it every which way but are always whining about not being able to con enough attention out of everybody. Women lack conscience. Women lack morality. Women lack ethics. Women lack a soul, an unquantifiable dimension that makes humanity possible. I know I am capable of love and am in love but according to society if the other half isn't and since the other half is completely incapable of one of the most human of qualities then it isn't actually love. It is only infatuation, a mere obsession for women to trifle with. Fck you women. Fck you. 1

Fitz Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Romantic love is about as real as the easter bunny. It's fun to believe in, but the reality falls short. Also, we can't call a woman a whore without calling a man a slut. Meaning "the cake is a lie" for everybody. Edited July 30, 2012 by Fitz
ThaWholigan Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 I can certainly build a connection or have romantic feelings for a girl, but it usually comes in a tandem with sexual attraction, and that is usually the driving force. I usually know quite early on if I'm attracted and it's more than lustful. 1
xxoo Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Spider, haven't you been to any weddings in recent years? People in my world are still falling in love, getting engaged, eloping, and having weddings. Yes, romantic love is still going strong. It just avoids LS as much as possible 2
Titanwolf Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 "Romantic love" pisses me off. I can be romantic at times, but I can't stand it when a woman expects a man to behave romantically. What's wrong with "attachment love"? the one that lasts. I still believe that this recent concept of "Romantic love" is for those highly suggestible people who grew up with Hollywood. Do yourself a favour and skip that phase altogether, unless you want to try and maintain the fallacy of longevity that is "romantic love", the one that doesn't survive. Just my view. 1
Leigh 87 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Yes. But it is too hard to find a partner who your really attracted to, and who you also really like. So a lot of people settle for love, rather than being IN love. A lot of people go through life with a partner who they are very close to. They love being together. They love going through life together. And they are attracted to each other sexually. There is just no X factor. Settling, and a lack of a romantic love, happens when u find a person your either: really attracted to, but who is nto that great of a person, but she is nice enough and super hot so u settle OR... A person your not that sexually into, but who is such a great person that you want to be with them. .......... true love exists but it is hrd to find for the average person.... I would rather wait, than settle. 1

xxoo Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Then according to that arranged marriages are one of the oldest symbols of love. The weddings I attend are not arranged marriages. Thanks for the clarification.
LittlePrince Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Also, we can't call a woman a whore without calling a man a slut. We could if promiscuity was as pervasive among men as it is among women.
LittlePrince Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 The weddings I attend are not arranged marriages. Thanks for the clarification. Yet they are as loving.

Well, I look forward to updates on your quest after you hit the age of 45 and/or have been married for 10 years. FYI: all that butterfly stuff fades. 1

Yamaha Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 At what point does a guy find that sexual attraction turns into love? Is it after a few dates, weeks of seeing a girl, months? I was very attracted to my love when we first met but it took months of talking to her and finding out about her and respecting the person she is before I truly loved her ( as well as desiring her ). Does he usually know it's more than a sexual attraction from very early on? Not at first. The desire is easy but deciding if she is more than a sexual conquest takes time.
Fitz Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 With luck it really doesn't. I suppose you have to define what "romantic love" means to you. If you think that "butterflies in your stomach" dreamy-sparkly-frisky-rosy feeling will last your whole life, then I've got bad news for you. But if you define "romantic love" as dedication, mutual respect, and fulfilling companionship then it is possible.

Fitz Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 We could if promiscuity was as pervasive among men as it is among women. OK, well now we're just making things up based on subjective experiences. Cough up some links to scientifically proven data, or it didn't happen.

By reading forums all you are getting for the most part are extreme stories/views that don't represent the majority.
El Brujo Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Does romantic love exist any more? It does exist, but it has all but become a taboo topic. People talk much more openly about stuff like FWB, PUA, and a lot of other things which personally I find rude and abusive... but talking about romantic love---and I mean the honest-to-God kosher product---is a no-no nowadays. 1
Fitz Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 The high you feel can last but for most it doesn't. I suspect you're speaking from wishful thinking as opposed to experience. But good luck with that.
