stevie_23 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Robots with feelings, that is. Lol. I’ve been thinking how we can potentially fall DEEPLY in love with a HUGE number of people on the planet. And yet it seems our hearts and lives are hurt and fraught with stress (amongst many amazingly happy moments of course) because we latch onto people who are just not RIGHT for us. They either live really far away, are way too old / too young, don’t agree with our viewpoints on vital issues, or are so drastically different that there are compatibility issues. Or they’re addicted to some substance, or they have major family issues. Or they’re married. The list goes on and on. Yes, we love them. We think they are PERFECT for us, and sometimes they really are, but really…if we were more like robots, we’d just not let ourselves fall for these types of people and would instead turn ONLY towards those who will NOT cause us a heap of difficulty later. The EASY people, who we CAN fall in love with just as much, cherish and appreciate just as much, and NEED just as much, as those heartbreaking situations caused by our LACK of robot characteristics.
Author stevie_23 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Posted February 26, 2013 GOOD! Robots cannot argue, you see. You are already learning. lol 2
cavalier99 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Hmm confused. Exactly what are the robot chracteristics we are stiving for? Cool analytical thinking selecting our mates with some emotion sprinkled in lol I bet thunerchild could expound on this concept. He writes science fiction fantasy novels. Maybe his next with be about 2 robots in love and one gets dumped for a new shiney model. Hmm sorta sounds like my reality. Lol I must ponder this concept more ..should I be more robotic? Sure would help with this BU that's for sure! Cav Edited February 26, 2013 by cavalier99
adelia Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Or press the delete button on some memories or decisions we made in life but still learn from them of course lol 1
Mme. Chaucer Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 If we as robots could have the happy feeling, wouldn't we also have the sad ones you are describing? But at least we would never age. Or have B.O. And a lot of other stuff. 2
Amelie1980 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 You clearly never saw A.I. The robot child created to love who went through a whole heap of heart break when his mum throws him out.
destroyed4sho Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I am somewhat robotic when choosing to date someone. The problem is there is not much of a selection. Where do you meet ALL these people that I am supposedly compatible with? Online? At a bar? An activity? Meetup? Ive done all.that and doesnt seem to work for.me(and i am pretty attractive)...At one point I wasnt with anyone for almost 3 yrs. There maybe lots of people.I am compatible with but sometimes i dont find them.attractive or.they dont find me attractive, or they dont want a relationship, they are already taken, emotional problems, etc...and the list goes on. Very hard to find someone EASY and compatible in my opinion. I dont think being robotic or selective would work, you would just end.up very lonely for years. Edited February 26, 2013 by destroyed4sho
Sav Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Without black there will never be white. Without sadness we will never know how it feels to be happy. So if we do not feel sad for the rest of our lives, we will just feel mundane. Everything is here for a reason~ sadness makes us appreciate happiness and joy even more
mcdo Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 It would be nice to be able to plug a laptop into a jack and have some guy program my unhappy thoughts into happier thoughts. Or install some kind of antivirus system that clears out unhappy memories but has learnt from the clearing out process.
