Opinion on Love....

      In response to Feick's post, I have wasted my money on roses a few times, (all at different times of the year, including the cliche'd valentine's rose gift) so "corporate Canada" definately does profit on valentines day. So yes, I once succumbed to the sappy and extremely unnecessary, and time wasting "Love Bug". Before I knew it, I had wasted two years of my life, had all my hopes and dreams crushed, and my soul was stripped.
     Feick also mentioned The Notebook....WORST....MOVIE.....EVER! It never used to be, the first time I saw it, I thought it was a good movie (despite the fact that it was a "chick flick") but it was after the 6th time seeing it that I noticed that my mouth had gone from a smile...to a depressed, angry, bored frown. I cannot sit through that movie anymore. It seems like every girl I date has The Notebook at the top of their favorite movies list. But the last time I was forced to watch it, I pretended to be sick, so I said I was going to the bathroom, and I just sat in there and played PSP for about forty minutes. When I got back, (expecting the movie to be half over, so at least i wouldn't have to endure the first half) it turns out that she had it paused the whole time and was waiting for me to come back and pick up right where I left off....
     So anyway, my main point (before I trailed off to complain about the notebook, and tell my Notebook story) is that I don't believe in "love" I think that mostly everyone (myself included) wants to have someone, which is great. But the fact that most relationships don't last, even if a couple were to stay married for life, they will still at some point get sick of each other, should be enough proof to say that love doesn't last. That shouldn't, however, stop someone from finding someone to be with. I still think that's inportant in life.

  1. You're a sick son of a b**** you know that! I hope you rot in the depths of hell and are forced to watch The Notebook every hour of every day! No I suppose I'm kidding but this was an incredibly pessimistic way of looking at love.

    Oh and also "Love bug"?! What is this Herbie Fully Loaded?!!

  2. Herbie!!! I am old enough to recall the original movie. Fun stuff.

    Mikey--you're funny. Go easy on the guy.

    Ethan...ouch. I think it's a compliment to you that your date didn't leave or dump you after you spent 40 minutes in the bathroom. That is...well...disturbing.

    I get ya on the experience of having your "soul stripped" (brilliant description, by the way) because of love. It really can be painful. But, even at my ripe age of 38 I'm hoping for it. I've had it, lost it and thought I had it, and all of the experiences made me slightly edgier but wiser.

    So, don't give up just yet. Oh, and The Notebook ticked me off b/c I was determined to hate it but ended up crying in spite of myself. Sigh.
