all that counts is to be in love
I tend to disagree with that sentiment. So many things can go "wrong" in love ... wrong reason, wrong person, wrong place, wrong time ....

I always end up makin Big Brown Doe eyes at the one who doesn't even know I exist.
Calf to the slaughter.
Pathetic.
Now I know why, I don't care.
The Nibelung renounced love. So do I.

Does the good outweigh the bad? You know you can't have it all, but if the feeling that something is missing then that's probably true and if it's a big enough something, then let the relationship go. I'd rather have no love than a mediocre love any day.
Don't feel bad, I am a psycho magnet.

I hate love;(

sometimes it's not that easy to walk away from someone you've grown attached to. But there will come a time when the person says enough is enough and walks away for good. That time can only be decided by that person and that person only.
Theoretically, opposites may attract ... but in reality it may be a whole different story
Love really doesn't conquer all - despite all our wishes for a fairy tale ending!
First if you love someone - why would you want to change them or hope they change? A person who is aware of their own needs, their desires, their goals - generally won't settle for something less than that and I believe that's why so many marriages between very young people don't work out. For example - your goal if financial security and so you set out to achieve that. You are attracted to a woman who never pays off her credit cards, who lives paycheck to paycheck, has no savings and who doesn't believe you have to work for financial security. If you get married hoping she will change, but she doesn't, how long before the anger and resentment set in and the fires flame up? Example - the tea totaller loves the champagne swigging beauty who loves to party like theres no tomorrow. He gets married and then realizes that the party animal isn't content to sit in the house and watch the kids and he never realized that she was an alcoholic dressed in designer duds. How long before that dream gets shattered and the bitterness sets in?
I think that a person who fills up all the empty spots in another, compliments the person they are with and while they might appear to be opposites on the surface, underneath the similarities are the glue that hold them together.. sammieswife.

I believe you hit the nail on the head. Maybe "being comfortable in your own skin" makes it easier to take risks in areas where you possibly might get hurt.
But then again ... no risk, no reward right?
Would you be brave enough to forego the security of familiarity, to find true fulfillment in the unknown?
I did, and I did. It was hard. I spent two years in grief/rehab (figurative).
Amen Voideater! Been there, done that. I can certainly relate to that part.
Perhaps it was "love at first sight", but then you get to know him/her more intimately and realize your goals and amitions couldn't be further apart. Not that he/she isn't a good person ... just not right for you. The physical attraction is real, but issues that are important to you pale into insignificance in his/her mind. After giving so much of yourself, he/she now holds a special place in your heart. You love them dearly, but they don't fulfil your deepest longings. You always feel there is something missing in the relationship.
What would be your choice? Would you stick around trying to change him/her and hope for the best? Would you be brave enough to forego the security of familiarity, to find true fulfillment in the unknown?
lmao... God damn women! stop beating around the bush and just fck him like you want to. No need to justify it to everyone!
