Isn't it Ironic that we ignore the ones who adore us...adore the ones who ignore us...love the ones who hurt us...and hurt the ones who love us? Just a thought...

So true.

I was thinking the same thing the other day......

Oh boy, that is the truth!

I do not find that is the case, personally. I suppose it can be true for others, judging from the types of questions people ask me when I read tarot for them, however, or from the sorts of material one typically reads in "advice" columns.

If someone I have nothing in common with "adores" me, I don't ignore him/her--that could be a potentially life-threatening error! If it's someone I DO have stuff in common with, then it would also be a bad idea to pass up friendship with that person. Either way, I try to resolve the issue, whether the "adorer" likes the outcome or not.

As well, I have never "adored" someone who ignored me. I can have no more than a mild crush on someone who ignores me, and when it becomes obvious that the person is deliberately ignoring me, then I don't like him anymore.

"Love the ones who hurt us"...? Are you talking about "hurt" like "hurt my feelings by not giving me a bunch of compliments 24/7" or "hurt" as in "punched me in the mouth for asking him how his day went"...? There are all kinds of hurt. I mean, a mother loves her child, but the first act of the child is to hurt the mother really badly.

There's no way we can avoid inflicting emotional pain on someone who loves us, and vice versa. If we didn't have feelings, if we didn't care, then there would be no opportunity to feel pain at--for example--a misunderstanding or loss. But emotional pain in a loving relationship is always balanced out by intense joy.

The type of person you're talking about is not a well-balanced or happy person. I know there are lots of people like that, but it doesn't describe me or any of my friends.

And these are just some of MY thoughts. yours in Chaos, Scarlett

Wellll.....I don't adore ones that ignore me.

I like and pay attention to the ones that adore me. They're my friends. But...that's just me.

I'm glad I stopped all that nonsense -- so much easier just to ignore everybody....

Just because someone adores you doesn't mean they are worthy of you.

I don't waste my time with people who don't reciprocate feelings.

Now the hurting the ones you love and the ones you love hurt you... That happens but only because they are the only ones close enough to you to hurt you. They are the most comfortable with you so unfortunatly it's a rule of engagement and par for the course.

I'm ignored all the time......

or

Is it just "taken for granted"???

Did you just hear something?

Nope.

It's like raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain, on your wedding day, it's a free ride...etc

Please no Alanis.

Alanis is God, didn't you watch "Dogma"?

but actually the things she says in that song aren't ACTUALLY Ironic, they are just things that suck...not so much ironic.

Dogma is awesome. Too bad for Jay though in real life. He was my favourite character.
