Stop poking me!
Nya. I was going to post this as a rant, so it may be deleted (or worse yet ignored!). Still, I want some opinions.
Love and Lust. What's the difference? Oh, sure, I know the answer, and many of you know the answer, but from some of the posts I've read and from what some people have said, many a person in this world is using the nice little "lo-" word when they mean the "lu-" word. Namely, the people that say they can't "lo-" someone unless they're above a certain weight, which is as bad as those people who say they can't love someone unless they're below a certain weight.
Call me an idealist, call me a nutjob, but I think love has a bit more than loving a person's body. At least I desperately hope so! I always thought love was about looking into a person's heart and soul, an attraction at that level and the physical aspect is just icing on the cake. Am I the only one? The only one that feels this way?
I can only speak from personal experience, but in my mind, I always have an "ideal" female form. An idea of what the "perfect woman" would look like. Way back when I had a girlfriend, my ideal didn't matter. In fact, the more time I spent with the woman I loved, the more my ideal shifted... What was "perfect" in my mind became her.
... Anyone else have this kind of experience, or am I really just a nutjob?
