QdB Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Minds wondering...I think that women love for different reasons than men. Women love the feeling of love. The feeling of a connection that is shared between two ppl. I'm not sure that women love the man but instead maybe they associate that "feeling" with that person and therefore love him. When they mourn the lost of a relationship, they're really mourning the lost of the connection they had with the man. That's why they're always hoping and open to the possibility of meeting someone new...don't know if that make sense... But men I think for the most part love the actual characteristics of the woman. Both physical and personality traits. The connection we desire is not so deep in a mental plane but more of understanding and acceptance. We fall for the woman and all the little things that make her who she is making it so that when we really loved a woman we never truly get over her but instead learn to accept that it's over Don't know if any if that was correct or even made sense but I'd like to know what love is to women. Like what it means and what causes it for them? I'm under that belief that they romanticize and idealize being in love. I could be wrong...that's why I'm asking Edited November 9, 2012 by QdB

As soon as you want somebody—really want him—it is as though you have taken a surgical needle and sutured your happiness to the skin of that person, so that any separation will now cause a lacerating injury.” For me, when I love a man, I accept him for who he is, flaws and all. I will do anything for him once he has my heart. Love is like the wind when it's blowing, the wind doesn't know where it's going, it doesn't even know it's blowing. But I can see the truth in what you say about how woman are more open to meeting men after a breakup. Because we do miss that connection. I miss that connection I had with my recent ex. He was my best friend. I miss him entirely. And the first thing I think about is how I'm going to fill that void with someone else. But it's more difficult because he was familiar, he was my comfort. When you meet someone new, it's hard because you don't know their flaws, their ticks, you aren't comfortable with being 100% you yet. But my ex certainly isn't replaceable at this time of the breakup. But I am more open to the idea of meeting someone else, but he is the one I will compare every other guy too. "Men always want to be a woman's first love. Women have a more subtle instinct: What they like is to be a man's last romance. The only way to understand a woman is to love her - and then it isn't necessary to understand her. To women, love is an occupation. To men, a preoccupation. To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all." 2
