2. Fuck it all!
I dedicate this thread to the one person who made it all possible...

the next thread will be dedicated to me, for whom none of the possibilities would have been realized in my life.


The final thread should be dedicated to the controlling, parental, bastard who provides "safety" and safety is better than life. I lived like that for years though. Safety over life. I'll take life.

4. How about being equal partners in a relationship?
Is that possible? I wouldn't know, but that's what I'd want.

9. Being equal partners in a relationship to me
means doing things fair and equally

I'm talking about feelings which I'm not sure you can not quantify them equally

5. If you're trying to establish control you're doing it wrong.
Unless you're into that kind of thing, in which case you'll need a safeword and some good quality lube and more power to ya. :patriot:

10. yeah had a safeword
but that's not what I'm talking about :P

maybe to say whoever has the least investment in the relationship determines the outcome of that relationship

6. A different perspective
A writer by the name of Merle Shain wrote a number of books on the subject of Love.
They were:
When Lovers are friends
Some Men are More Perfect Than Others
Courage My Love

I highly recommend them. It may give you a different perspective on relationships.
Amazon has them cheaper in the used books.

7. I always heard that the one who loves the least controls the relationship
Not sure if it is true or not.
But I do think couples need to be both friends and lovers.
And they're needs to have a healthy mixture of both.
People can be god awful to people they love.

11. Wiser words: The only thing you can ever hope to control in life is your own reaction.

15. This is also very true
I was just pondering that statement

the one who loves the least has the least to lose emotionally and I have no control over that you are right as mostly always :P


:hug:
