I Need YOUR Comments Fellas!

Help me out here. Something that i had read in a blog got me thinking. Kinda mirrored my own question, and i wonder how many people will give different answers.

Please Use the Comment link to post your Comment. And please, if possible, leave a name. If your not leaving a name, please type at least 4-5 sentences of words that make sense.

Sorry if it sounds like a survey. I really wanna know what you guys think.

Statement, and Food For Thought.

Is it better to be in the arms of the person you love,
Or the person that loves you?

to be in the arms of someone you love is the most magical feeling in the world. and if you're there, the one you love should be loving you back. ;) that's the magic of it.

every relationship should be based on honesty, and truth, and you should not be there just because someone wants you.

i agree...

love is reciprocal, o/w one of you'll just burn out... what's the point?

BAH! how many different comments can there bE?!?!?! only 2 options what!
actually 3, which is neither. (an option to be a spinster, or in ur case, a bachelor)

if i could.
i'll choose to be in the arms of the one i love.

i won't want to just bask in the new person's attention. as much as it's really nice and encouraging. cos, simply, it's not what i really want, you know in the LR as compared to SR??? haha, i won't be wanting the person, i only want what he/she gives me. and what is that? they expect to be loved in return too. and if i can't (how much love can u give to someone just because they are there), i shouldn't accept what they give me, and lead them on.

RENCE! what is love, if it isn't for a person, or loving who she is truly inside, the things that could never change?

maybe we're all just too young, too silly, too rash, we don't know what we want, or what we had.

Well I also think to be in the arms of someone you love is better, afterall that person is the one you personally choose and love and as barcardi said there's a magical feeling to it.

To be in the arms of some1 that loves you, well it's possible that person is not some1 you love, let's make an example WO LIM(gay uncle) loves you, if you are in his arms what will you feel? lol

Actually there's a chinese song that goes: Being loved is happiness, loving some1 is torture(被爱是幸福, 爱人是痛苦) which is true, but if you have the choice, wouldn't you be in the one you loved rather than be in the arms of the one who love you?

Being in the arms of the person you love completes everything and somehow, everything just makes perfect sense. It sounds kinda self-centred but being in the arms of the person you love will definitely give you more satisfaction and joy than being in the arms of a person who loves you. :D

wah what a wrong time to hear something in this line of thought..

both aren't good man.. delphinium's right.. although i must say im totally not in e position to talk about this

Peanutsjh said...

okayyy. since u asked, like i told you, it's an unfair survey.

anw, i think it's better to be in the arms of the one you love.

being in the arms of the one who loves you is abit empty. if it's the correct word to be using.

being in the arms of the one you love is just something else altogether.

i'm not one to judge, u shld know, just my 2cents worth.

Had read the following b4 & I agree with it...

In each person's life, U will meet a few ppl, namely:

1) Someone U love
2) Someone who loves U
3) Someone who is your great pal & the 2 of U understand each other very well (知己)
4) Someone U will spend the rest of yr life with

It is very rare that U meet 1 single person which is the combination of all 4.
So which of the above have U met?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To ans yr Q. There is no such thing as better or not. It's YOUR life & U can get to choose whatever way U want to live it.
I know ppl who choose the person who loves U.
I also know ppl who choose the person U love.
I also know ppl who choose none.
And also note that ppl's choice may change over time.

The thing is to be responsible for yr choices.

My choice? Currently, I will only remain in the arms of a person who loves me & I love him too.

i used to prefer being with someone you love to being with someone who loves you.. becos i think that no matter how small the thing the person you love do for you, the happiness you feel is 100x more.. in contrast, the person who loves you might need to do 100x more to make you feel that happiness... but as the song brown cow mentioned says "被爱是幸福, 爱人是痛苦".. and so now, given that i'm not fortunate enough to be with someone who i love and loves me back... i would choose someone who loves me instead. I think being in the arms of someone you love but doesn't love you back is more heart-breaking than anything else..

Yah, it doesnt matter actually, as long as there is love and its shared.

well.. what someone said earlier touched on the fact that it hurts, to be in the arms of someone you love, but doesn't love you back.

i guess, it's true, but yet again, i feel that at least this way, you are sure of your own feelings, and the decision to love, or not to, is really within your grasp.

definately the arms of someone you love.

it's like having someone you have a major crush on just brush his arm against yours versus the feeling of someone you dont like who has a crush on you touching u... it's like.. who cares? haha.

delphinium said...

or, be smart, and don't fall in love!

I'm gonna take this as an open ended discussion rather than choose one option. From experience, I would say both options are as horrible as they would come.

To keep things short, to love someone without reciprocation is pure torture, and to be loved by someone might seem blissful... but if you aren't reciprocating that same love back, and if you had even a tinge of conscience in you, you jolly well put that person out of torture. Easier said than done of course.

Love is kind of an interesting emotion... it can turn to hate in a blink of an eye. Well you know the saying "You'll always hate the one you love..."

RE:moop!

isn't it the same thing? ha ha. . i assume that if two people are hugging. . there is love . . grinz. But if it definitely has to be a one sided, i would say,"the man who loves you." :).

In this instance of one-sided love that ClaireRence has illustrated . . my take in March 06 is," the man who loves you." It's too painful to love a man. : ).
