Oh no arguing at all here Krimsa. Just a friendly debate......at least as far as I'm concerned. All opinion is going to be somewhat experientially based, and in the end, it's just that, each person's opinion.

Let's say someone had a child and found themselves helplessly in "real love" and wanting to do and give the best of themselves for their child. Wouldn't that be significant and selfish motivation? Krimsa, what I mean by this is that one's love for your child and thereby wanting to be and give the best of yourself for them can be the selfish motivation for changing one's life. You are confusing/mixing unconditional love with given love. Love in a romantic relationship is conditional no matter how you look at it. You may not choose to love that person but you choose to act on that love. Unconditional love has no bounds like the instinct to breath. A mother (if normal) feels unconditional love for a child as the child does for her. There is no comparison.
The question did not specify a type of love so I am not confusing/mixing anything. I'm merely pointing out that the love one feels for a child can indeed be an impetus for change in oneself. Therefore, my answer to the question remains yes, 'real love' can save someone. |

OoOoO! Nice new hair! I like it. Probably next week I am going to get my hair trimmed... but who knows I might get it chopped off. I haven't decided yet. Morning beach! Yeah, the guy did a good job ... 2 hours and 130.00 (with tip) later. At least I got a compliment out of it last night. VERY pretty, love the color! |

Do you believe real love can save anyone?
Taking this question at face value and not assuming anything I'd have to answer yes. When someone is in love their motivations can change dramatically. Can that lead them to change things about themselves that may be self-destructive and thereby save themselves? Yes, I do believe that is very possible. But then you are only willing to change to suit someone else. It could create a momentum in your life or a reason to change to preserve your future existence in some respect. In other words, the kick in the ass you might have required, but in order for long term lifestyle changes to fully go into effect, it MUST be done for selfish reasons and because you desire for those changes to take place. Otherwise you are playing with borrowed time. What if that person should leave you? Thats been my experience at least. I did preface my answer with "Taking this question at face value and not assuming anything I'd have to answer yes.", letting you know I'm strictly answering the question asked. Love being the motivation for change, a person can change to suit themselves just as easily as you say they are only willing to change to suit someone else. No one said the other person required this change. Let's say someone had a child and found themselves helplessly in "real love" and wanting to do and give the best of themselves for their child. Wouldn't that be significant and selfish motivation? |

I am thankful for my family and friends, my health, that I have a good job, a home and the means to help my children who are not quite so fortunate right now. I'm also thankful for the technology that has expanded my world and brought so many wonderful new friends into it.

"I LOVE the outdoors, especially the river and the woods." That sky, though, that could use a little work. I think we should talk to whoever is in charge of that. Did they mention banjo in their interests? just sayin'.... |

How can you tell if a person is legit on here? As to knowing who they are? if so, that takes time and taking a chance. As far as pic's go. if you known them for a little while and feel comfortable. there is the cam and that alone with take care of it's self. Yep, you're right there, it's all about feeling comfortable and it's also taking a chance. It's a matter of trusting your own intstincts or intuition. If something doesn't feel right then by all means either make it right before you set any meetings up if possible or don't meet at all. |
