I did care for a split second when I saw that bel-air scene though which was a weird foreign feeling to be. I think it'll take a shyt load of therapy to make me care any more.
It’s a wonderful feeling to be able to let your guard down and be close and vulnerable with a special person. It can be hard to find but it’s amazing when you do find it.

Try therapy! I’m sure it’ll help in numerous ways

Love is about responsibility and duty.

Like is all about feeling good in the moment.

Don’t confuse the two.

A lot of people get hardened by life and the duty and responsibility kicks in but they don’t necessarily like one another anymore.

A lot of our parents, aunts , uncles, and grandparents did not do a great job in fostering environments of “like” they just leaned into their duty and responsibility. They provided the necessities and hoped that you realized they love you without actually communicating it and providing nurture.

In turn there a lot of confused adults that don’t know how to convey themselves and express love, like, feelings appreciation, and admiration wonder the world confused.
i was just recently explaining my preference of 'like' to 'love'

being in like is vastly preferable to me. it comes with no responsibility....its light....its fun.....everybody is on their best behavior :skip:

love leads to contentment...possession....expectations....and then inevitably anger when shyt doesnt work out

think back on the ends of every relationship you've been in....theres ALWAYS anger and resentment....thoughts of revenge

being in like is where it's at....

just as many tender loving parts, relationships also have tough parts too. and not even no traumatic shyt like people on here love to wish on each other to make themselves feel better. but just regular shyt you have to deal with in any type of relationship in general.... sacrifices, doing things you may not really want to, small annoyances, major annoyances, boredom, etc. the difference is in a sexual relationship is it tends to be an all day thing. i can go days without seeing my dad and it gives me that chance to recover lol

you can not want these things, and that's fine. i sometimes consider myself "not relationship material" because i'd rather focus on my own activities than try to hold somebody and myself to those sacrifices. but a difference is ones approach and attitude. i usually be honest about it and try to be cool and not like "i fukk these bytches and leave"..... like, that doesn't sound like a worthy alternative or even fun lol, it's giving baggage.

The ego builds walls to protect itself.

"Cognitive dissonance isn't about lying but rather being convinced of something because it suits you to be convinced of it. One part of the self has lied to another part"


You may or may not be lying to yourself. only life experience will show you which is the case. So its better to seek the experience to find the truth.:respect:
nah trust me, it's not cognitive dissonance. I truly don't care and even like smutting women out (respectfully of course).

very commendable second paragraph :ehh:


i used to be more honest, but then wouldn't get what i wanted (selfish, deceiving, and lying by omission)

Maybe if I ever fell in love, half of these discussions would make sense

I've been in whole official relationships and still wonder "do I actually love this woman? or do I just like her and she seems like she would be a good wife?"

Maybe I'm just too used to living on my own and being free to do whatever

it doesn't seem like it's making you happy though. maybe what you think you wanted is just an illusion or some form of societal pressure (i am man, must fukk by any means necessary :skip: ). and that's not just for single people but also married people. some of the most miserable hateful people are married.

then it also depends on the individual, not only does being flaky/user/hater not make me happy, i also got a reputation to uphold so those situations aren't something i try to put myself in.
