Aw, Dez. . .come on back to quarterlife!

Just outta curiosity, how often are you complimented on how pretty you are?

I don't think it's a problem to have a new years resolution that might not be a bit less serious or a lot less serious than another's. Honestly, I don't think you should care so much what other people think about you or what's going on in your mind. If you want to be able to drink more, party harder and experiment with new people and new things than you have in the previous years, I say more power to ya! But remember there are always consequences to your actions and not all of them may be bad or good. In any case, it's your life and you only live once! So go all out girl! I don't know you at all really, but this is my honest view point of it. I see "the picture your painting" and I know where you're coming from with that. Life would be a lot easier for all of us if we could all be REAL with each other. So why do we put ourselves through the mess of sugar coating everything? Just so the person next to us won't think lowly of us? WHO GIVES A CARE WHAT THEY THINK!? I know I don't! So why should you? I hope I'm not coming off harshly but hey, have fun with life. Not everything should be serious, otherwise we're missing the big picture of a BIG PART of our lives. Kindda like sleep. IF we're meant to sleep 1/3 of our lives, the other 2/3's should consist of more care free fun and less serious issues in my opinion. Sorry to have chattered your ears off, but does this help at all?

I totally agree with you !I think that when you are really in love you are so "strange" and happy that telling someone you are in love is the last thing you would do...as you said it was understood!
the word "love" doesn't have the same meaning anymore..."love" is like a candy now .you give it to anyoneand I don't think this is a good thing because now love is confused with like,sometimes you like someone and you think you love him/her but love is something mysterious and when you are in love you understand it..

Good call, but sometimes losing a good friend is worse than losing a shot at love. I probably will approach her with the idea, but it doesn't change my fear of losing her friendship.

Thanks. . .I'll tell him you said so!

You shouldn't feel put under the microscope. The majority of resolutions are not kept, which makes me think that they weren't made in earnest to begin with. Any worthwhile resolution made during New Year's should also be able to be made at any time during the rest of the year. You shouldn't resolve to do something just because we've completed another orbit around the sun. That seems rather contrived to me.

i agree with you so nuch that its crazy. the very word alone is used way too often to even come close to scratching the surface of the true meaning of love. the word "love" no longer carries the meaning of deep admiration for someone but is more commonly used as an excuse where im from : "oh, i dont want to leave her because i love her so much". bull shit. your just scared of facing the world without her or scared to be alone. so in conclusion i do believe that true love does exist but not as many of us would think of it to be, but as the unspoken worryless utopian feeling thet most of us have yet to experience.

ever fallen in love with someone ever fallen in love in love with someone... do do dood od doo

I don't think there is anything wrong with saying it out loud. . .as long as it is understood as well. Actions, after all, speak louder than words. The problem is that people are so quick to jump to "love" without knowing what it really is. (see Marriage, 50% failure rate of). I never say it just to say it. Saying it doesn't create it. Saying it should just describe what is already there.
