Mind is blown but when you realise this, you realise you're on a whole other playing field of life and life is finally easy and delightful.

 

No it's really not mind blowing at all that some people don't want commitment. But neither should it come as any surprise that not all people who do want commitment are necessarily brainwashed by society. It's called preference, and people have them. Obviously yours is away from commitment. Good for you. But there's really no reason for you to soapbox that anyone with a different preference is brainwashed.

If you're attached to anything then you suffer.

 

Man, you are arrogant and presumptuous, aren't ya.

 

 

No dude, those are YOUR feelings, not everyone's, certainly not mine, that's for damn sure.

Hmm. That's odd. I've seen hundreds of examples of committed relationships that lasted a lifetime.

 

It seems like your "reality" and my "reality" are out of sync.

 

Because your reality is based upon information given to you by people who are attached and have no idea what they're talking about. The information conditioned into your mind since you were birthed into this world.

 

This information if you follow it makes all of your behaviour VERY predictable and that means people can sell you slot of stuff.

 

Of course I predicted all of the responses tonight, I wouldn't expect anything less from people who are attached and once again attachment is blind.

So. Given that, how can you be sure that you also aren't suffering from the same "conditioning" you claim others are suffering from?

 

Can you trust your own mind anymore than I can trust my own?

 

I appear at least to have people who share my view of reality, yet I notice a stark lack of those supporting yours.

Yes, she will hurt when the relationship ends. She will grieve. That is all *part* of the human condition.

 

Avoiding the pain, running from the things that scare us, is what lessens us.

 

Does the fact that one day in the future she will experience pain, lessen all the days of joy and happiness that came before?

 

You have been taught what the human condition is. What you experience isn't the human condition, it's the robot condition. I can pull your strings like a puppet. Your behaviour is learned.

Yet yours is not? How interesting.

 

You think you are some how different from other people? Above them perhaps?

There is no difference between a president and a bum on the street.

 

However there are two levels of life.

Yet you avoid answering the question.

 

You seem to think you know something others don't.

 

Yet I ask you "How do you know you can trust your own mind?" and you ignore the question.

 

I'm the puppet clearly. Surely you can answer my simple questions?

This is partly true, marriage was born from Religion and a way to make people behave in respectable manners, when many centuries ago people were doing mass orgies and other behaviors deemed sinful and a HAZARD for any future organization and class system.

 

 

You need structure and family to raise children.

 

 

So half is correct and logical, it was instituted, but the other half is there is a large percentage who do actually fall in love and try everything to make it work against all odds.

Don't feel bad neowulf, he's avoiding my questions too.

Your reality is supported by whatever the current society tells you is true. So everyone gets behind it and accepts it as true. Our current society thinks that being in love is the supreme virtue of life, when in reality it is closer to a disease.

 

I am conditioned though of course. I recognise the conditions I have and let them go when I experience them

Of course, you live in the matrix. Your answer is predictable.

What a sad way to live a life.

 

I feel sorry for you.
