Mmm, sounds like you have been burned. BADLY.

Never having had a relationship before, I still know how you feel. When I was hurt by someone I liked a lot, I was angry too. I have since let that go and I just live life. I do believe that romantic lasting love does exist. Only a lucky few get it. You have to be open to things, and allow your heart and mind to be free. I do agree that today's society is to blame for so many failed relationships these days because there is so much pressure. I believe love happens when the person is ready for it, and it happens in its own time.

There was a short clip of the female award announcers for the grammies or the oscars or some sht and they said " Gravity, a movie where a man will disconnect his lifeline and float off into space and certain death rather than spend the rest of the time he has left with a woman his own age..."

Ha ha ha...not only is it funny, it seems to be true!

Understanding the Sociopath: Cause, Motivation, Relationship | Psychology Today

This is exactly what the Op is about... removing emotion, making love "economic," and looking at "love" as win/lose with a hidden agenda.

Can't rep you again, lady...lets make it perfectly clear, EVERYONE, people who can't figure out that love and other people are not objects that serve their gratification are not healthy emotionally, and no amount of clue-by-four upside the head will change that for them...but, we on the other hand - can avoid them...which I DO, as a hobby.

2. My dopamine and serotonin levels rise to atypical amounts when I am in your presence.

3. Your pheromones stimulate my reproductive instincts. Ideally, my pheromones will stimulate your reproductive instincts as well. If your reproductive instincts are insufficiently stimulated by my pheromones, let me know and I will put on more Axe Body Spray. The Axe Body Spray would ideally be of assistance in the stimulating your reproductive instincts.

4. My ancestry contains few genetic deficiencies, and my DNA contains no unusual and hazardous mutations. It is likely my offspring will survive and procreate.

5. When I look at you, my pupils do not dilate because I am terrified of you, or because it is dark out. They dilate because I find you aesthetically appealing.


I know what the ladies like. I'm gonna' get ALL the ladies


Oh WOW!!!
Stand back ladies...I'm going to club him drag him back to my cave...
