love is a losing game.

Have you ever loved here and been left? I have.

Every new person I meet I fear leaving me.

Why become so emotionally involved you know? But then rejection is rejection.

Have you split from a love or a friend here and what have you learned. How do you cope?

I miss those I've loved and lost. Won't anyone stay with me?

Kay you've never lost because you've never loved. That's tragic.
Avatar of Tomlight
I definitely would prefer to love then lose than never love at all.

And yet Kay every moment is a new beginning and it feels great to be alive.

My experience is without meaning to hurt anyone everything feels great.

I wonder if you try to upset people. I wonder if you believe you do mean to.

This old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away I feel you're gone to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that flow
Bringin' ya back again, hurting me more and more

Maybe it's my mistake to show this love that I feel inside
'cause each day that passes by
Ya got me never knowin' if I'm comin' or goin' 'cause

I love you, yes, I do
This old heart (ooh)
I love you, yes, I do
Yes, I do, wait for me

I try hard to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine always keep me cryin'
The way you're treatin' me leaves me incomplete
Yeah, you're here for the day, gone for the week

But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours whenever you want
I'm not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it 'cause

I love you

you think love is a lassoo that you rope people with ? all that washy washy talk about love and all the time you mistake it for attachment. if Troy were here he would quote from a philosophy book he read that love is not of the mind.

Avatar of Tomlight
Wow that's beautiful. Good effort! Love is not attachment. I frickin love that.
Avatar of Tomlight
So you're saying cherish that you love and forget about it being gone. That's right? Buddhists get married and yet practice none attachment. When you think about it how the frick does that work?

but that doesn't mean love doesn't hurt, your heart can feel like it's being torn to bits, but there is a method to the madness, let it rip you to pieces and reassemble you.

i dunno about the buddhists tom, not really into all that artificial stuff.

Avatar of Tomlight
Me either. But then I think much of their stuff is just about noticing what is.

So you're saying just let the healing happen. It's upsetting. Love does hurt.

Why the frick am I getting upset about a chess site? What's wrong with me?!

Keep on seeking love Tom. Ignore friend"s advice which in reality are rivals.

That's sweet. Maybe that's right. We have to keep going. Just plough through it. It hurts though. Very much. I had such a tough night last night. Couldn't bear it.

Love doesn't hurt. Loneliness hurts, abandonment hurts, rejection hurts, lying ,cheating , and screwing with peoples feelings hurt. Love is one of the  things that makes you feel good again.
