I think this is what you were trying to tell me in the story of the fiery plane crash love...
“You think you are alive
because you breathe air?
Shame on you,
that you are alive in such a limited way.
Don't be without Love,
so you won't feel dead.
Die in Love
and stay alive forever.
Rumi
Rainer Maria Rilke said:Love is at first not anything that means merging, giving over, and uniting with another...it is a high inducement to the individual to ripen, to become something in himself, to become world, to become world for himself for another’s sake, it is a great exacting claim upon him, something that chooses him out and calls him to vast things.
I'll see your Rumi and raise you Rilke:

I tried to delete this post, but it didn't work, so instead I'll just quote it and say that to treat the subject of the thread this way, while it may humor some, was not at all what I truly wanted to do, and I consider it a reactive mistake. I'm sorry.This thread may not be too effective at showing my instinct. I don't actually enjoy romance all that much in my experience. But then again, I've only had two relationships, which were with the wrong people and did not last too long because of that, and neither of which physically made it to all the bases.
Although, this is going to sound lame but it's honest - most of the post are kinda tame to me. So I guess I can take some points for that?
Here is a pleasing cat picture to make up for being unable to come up with anything right now:

Also will be back with a serious contribution.
I foresaw this after making my posts.I think these posts are perfect. This is exactly what I was looking for Alaska - thank you!
