I ADDRESSED YOU STATING THIS SAME POINT IN MY THREAD AND I DID NOT SEE YOUR RESPONSE. YOU BLATANTLY CONTRADICTED YOURSELF AND YET YOU STILL CONTINUE TO SAY THE SAME THING.
The flawed concept of "Love".

I THINK PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN WATCHING ME OVER THE YEARS ON THE FORUMS ARE JUST CONFUSED. THEN THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE SEEING ME POST FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, SUCH AS CAPTAIN HOOK, AND THEY CAN BE EXTREMELY QUICK TO MAKE JUDGMENTS ABOUT WHAT KIND OF PERSON I MUST BE LIKE. THE FUCKING LIAR EVEN IGNORED ME WITHOUT EVEN ADDRESSING MY COUNTER-ARGUMENTS TO HIS POINTS. HE CHOOSES TO LIVE IN HIS BUBBLE AND THEN JUMPS TO CONCLUSIONS ABOUT WHO I AM AS IF HE'S SOME ALL-KNOWING GOD JUST BECAUSE HE'S OLDER THAN ME AND IS A FATHER. THAT IS PREPOSTEROUSLY IGNORANT AND ARROGANT AND OFFENSIVE AND I HOPE SOMEBODY TELLS HIM HE SUFFERS FROM THE DUNNING-KRUGER EFFECT.
ANY DAMN WAY, I HAVE ALWAYS VALUED THE TRUTH ABOVE ANYTHING ELSE, AND I WILL TELL IT AS BEST I CAN WHEN I SEE FIT. I FEEL COMPELLED TO SAY IT HAS NO BEARING ON MY OWN SELF-ESTEEM AND HOW I FEEL ABOUT MYSELF. BUT FOR SOME REASON, EVERYONE THINKS THAT JUST BECAUSE MY EXTERNAL VIEW ON REALITY IS NEGATIVE THAT AUTOMATICALLY MEANS I FEEL NEGATIVE INTERNALLY OR ABOUT MYSELF TOO, WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY INCORRECT, BUT WHATEVER, STUPID GONNA STUPID.

The one thing I always liked about you was your consistency and straightforwardness, so I wasn't trying to attack you. But yeah it's a bit surprising to see you switch from hilarity to this mindset in, what appeared to me at least, a very short time. That said, you're making some good points that I don't agree with 100 percent but can't fully refute. I'll say it has led me to do my own reading.

Just because something is done for yourself doesn't make it selfish, just because something is deemed selfish doesn't make it wrong. There is no such thing as right and wrong, only perspective. A week ago Davina McCall ran, biked and swum 500 miles from Edinburgh to London. The selfish reasons? Fame? Personal challenge? unselfish reason? 760k raised for women and children in Africa.
So you have to say.
The thing it keeps coming back to is BALANCE. Fucking love that word. BALANCE.
Two people love each other for selfish reasons? Maybe some do, or more rather its a mutual benefit of each others company. Oh there it is again. BALANCE.
Here, have an extract from legendary Solid Snake.
Code:
Snake: I'm going to save Meryl no matter what it takes.
Naomi: ..............
Snake: What's wrong. Naomi?
Naomi: Nothing.... I'm just surprised you're willing to sacrifice yourself. You've got the genes of a soldier, not a saviour
Snake: You trying to say I'm only interested in saving my own skin?
Naomi: I wouldn't go that far but....
Snake: I don't know what the hell my genes look like and I don't care. I operate on instinct.
Namoi: Like an animal?
Snake: I'm going to save Meryl. I don't need an excuse.
Naomi: Okay...
Snake: And I'm not doing it for someone else either. I'm going to save Meryl for myself. Colonel. Don't Worry!

LOVE IS JUST AN EMOTION MEANT TO INDUCE HAPPINESS. AND HAPPINESS IS A DELUSION DESIGNED TO KEEP YOU PLAYING THE "GAME OF LIFE". SO IN ESSENCE, YOU SHOULD'NT LOVE, FOR WE ALL DIE EVENTUALLY AND THE LOVE WILL TURN TO SORROW! PEOPLE FIGHT AND DIE IN THE NAME OF LOVE, IT'S MEANING IS SELF INDULGING, AND ONLY LEADS TO JEALOUSY! [OBLIGATORY SWEAR WORDS AND INSULT]
And by the way... I'm TOTALLY not being negative! >:]
