Thread: ask me about love

What is love?
Simple enough question, right?

Can human romantic love last?

Are you in love?

I feel like I am floating
and I am always smiling
at nobody and everybody,
they look at me weird but
I keep smiling anyway, then they smile.
My mind is clear and floating,
my heart is throbbing and singing
and I feel like the whole sky is in my heart,
I feel free.

But it isn't a woman that has triggered this feeling in me
and I have nobody to share this feeling with
except my cat. It would be nice to share this with
a woman who also has a pure heart and inspired
and selfless. But my cat appreciates it.

sounds like love to me

Are you in love, or is love in you?

Is there a difference?

good one! I don't know? Love is in me for sure and I want it to be in everyone very much. I think it is because of the kundalini yoga!

I asked the question because it always seems like when you have a person as an object for love it starts problems. I have no problems right now. But there are some things that having a woman to share love with is very good for. And that there is no good substitute for. I wonder why all the spiritual teachers, even if they don't teach celibacy, they are all single? Is it because there is something flawed with romantic love? Some kind of clinging? Some kind of self-deception or projection? Of course all these things are possible and when the self deception wears off and reality comes in the false love dies.

But is there a possibility that two people can share love romantically without any clinging, self-deception or projection and keep it going indefinitely? Having the cake and eating it too?

Can Divine Love be sticky and hot as well as pure and real?

Etereo, any answers?

love is not complicated, its us humans who complicate love. it comes naturely like loving your mother father or grandmother you know they love you and you love them back. love is a easy thing it comes instinctively and you can feel it within you when it happens.

and for relationships you will know what relationship is right for you and you know its gonna last, you just have to find the right women or man

I know that!
But that is not what I asked, or is it?
I am not talking about loving mother father or grandmother,
I am talking about romantic love.

but all this will come into to play the romance everything once you have found love.

Etereo, you seem to have overlooked my question.

and don't fall into the trap of lust looks aren't everything it what matters within the person because looks can be decieving

What are your qualifications for this thread, etereo?


I'm in love, and I gotta say, I love it.

Oh come now.
You don't have a definition or anything?
You can't tell me what love is or what causes love?

its something you have to experience your self there is no true definition of love just like the dictionary doesn't tell you the meaning of friends

So then you started a thread for us to ask you questions that you can't answer....?

Well, is lust what makes romantic love romantic?
I know that looks aren't everything, but they are part
of the equation somehow.
I don't place much importance on looks,
just as long as the person is healthy and
happy and feels good about herself.
That is the minimum requirement as far as looks
are concerned, but she must have 'substance, spirit,
and heart. Is that also lust?
Should love not depend on any of those things?
Is that what unconditional love means?
Sorry,
but the answers you are giving sound like you
read them out of a magazine or a magic eight ball.
I don't need these answers, I could just tell myself this stuff.
Are you experienced?
Do you know what I'm talking about?

i don't read magazines nor do i read something from a magic 8 ball im just going from what i experienced

Haven't been in love for too long. That feeling is wonderful.

So...... what are the best places to find love?

and you haven't answered my first question.

i would say where ever you feel comfortable to be honest it could be anywhere
