spiderowl Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Do men ever really fall in love, or is it mainly in lust?
hrtblds2ez Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Ask my body and mind after 3 weeks post b/u and I can assure you, men are quite capable of Love. Real men at least.
Salvatore85 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 My ex dumped me in February after 5 years together, she's still the first thing I think about when I wake up everyday. I'll most likely love her until the day I die so the answer is an emphatic yes. 2
Grumpybutfun Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Spiderowl: Men and women aren't that different...we both want the same things in life, to be successful, have great LTR's or marriages and to build a life based on joy and hope. We love very deeply. I am a very successful man and my greatest accomplishment in my life is the love I feel for my lovely wife, and the life we share together. In fact, the biggest indicator of how deeply men love are the posts here of these young men who have been so hurt and destroyed by betrayal and failed relationships that their entire life is spent trying to figure out how to never feel love again. If they weren't so destroyed, so hurt, do you think they would be so bitter and so determined to convince themselves that ALL women are evil, gold-digging users with the emotional scope of a teaspoon? Lust is the aperitif and love is the entire meal. Best, Grumps 3
MissBee Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Some women fall in lust and think it is love, as do some men. Likewise, women and men can also fall in real love. 4
mikecr50 Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Of course but some women just play games! I think they should wear a sign-lol!
ThomasD Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Lust is a feeling (and it's not all bad). Passion is an emotion. Love is a decision and a commitment - the difficult challenges are making it a mutual decision and commitment, and knowing that the decision and commitment have been made. 2
Disillusioned Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 I'm a man and I'm pretty sure I'm anle to fall in love... but I've learned to avoid doing so because it usually means getting hurt again.
Esoteric Elf Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 Do men ever really fall in love, or is it mainly in lust? Uhhh, I do not know. I have been trying to please this girl by sending her trinkets that she adores (Vera Bradley, Lilly Pulitzer, books by her favorite author, for example), and I have remained 100% anonymous with not a single inkling of intention to reveal myself; I just want to see her happy: perhaps she is also excited by the idea of a mysterious lover. I may not label it as love, but I certainly would not label it as lust. Let me know if you beg to differ.
Author spiderowl Posted November 26, 2013 Author Posted November 26, 2013 It's heartening to hear that men do fall in love. As their first priority often seems to be your body, it's not always clear that it might go beyond that. 1
Imported Posted November 27, 2013 Posted November 27, 2013 I am going to guess there is a lot of drama with you OP.
Author spiderowl Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Why do you think there is a lot of drama? Don't quite see the connection with my posts.
Elias33 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Yes, people do fall in love. General knowledge.
JDPT Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 People fall in and out of love and round and round it goes.
SugarHibiscus Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Yes, men fall in love as hard, as deeply and as stupidly as women. It takes two for love! 1
Teraskas Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Some of these questions make me chuckle as much as the questions on OKC, lol. xD
David87 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Do men ever really fall in love, or is it mainly in lust? Omg..... of courese they fall in love, I did twice..
Charlie Harper Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 YES, but you need a leap of faith to do so, people who do not fall in love are insecure or too hurt to let go past experiences. Even if you and up heartbroken, being in love is wonderful ! So random, incontrolable, can't be planned....magic! Someday you wake up and the first thing on your mind is her, you go to bed and the last thing on your mind is "US"... 1
