Wolvesbaned Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Call me crazy, but I just watched Under the Tuscan Sun and I liked it a lot! It was just the type of movie I needed right now The movie inspired the following question: Now tell me again, why are we torturing ourselves with marriage if we can just have a dozen little flings with extraordinary handsome men that worship the ground we walk on, so what if it's temporary? What's forever really? Link to post Share on other sites
dolphinsunshyn Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 I haven't seen the movie yet. But to answer your question.... I have had a over a dozen flings with handsome men. Either I end up with a broken heart or if I leave them first, I still end up loney and unfulfilled. After several failed relationships; I have to ask myself, "is it me?" Doesn't do much for the self-confidence. I still long to find my prince-charming and live the fairytale. I think that is programed into us from a very young age. But there is still a lot to be said about a connection with someone that reaches into the depth of your soul. There is no other feeling like it in the world. One solid lasting relationship is so much more satisfying than several meaningless ones, in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Wolvesbaned Posted March 26, 2004 Author Share Posted March 26, 2004 I seems like we are hardwired to opt for more meaningful long-term and "real" relationships. It's supported by morals and our society and it makes sense in so many ways but is it really more meaningful? Link to post Share on other sites

Karlise Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Arabess, you are so funny! LOL My thoughts on this.... Marriage is for other people. I choose to remain unmarried, living with my BF but without that piece of paper. We keep our finances seperate, have our own interests, hobbies and groups of friends (although we do mix our friends from time to time) We are the very best of friend and still hot for each other after close to 4 years of being together. I had a very active 'dating' phase and....well, I haven't 'done it all' but I've done a lot, if you get my drift. I firmly believe women shouldn't swallow the 'life script' handed to them. Decide for YOURSELF what works for you! I think most of us do want something 'meaningful but you should decide what 'meaningful' means to YOU. It's hard to be a free thinking individual in this society. It's hard to stand out, be a little eccentric. But I think being true to oneself is the answer! And yes...if being married is truly what you want, do it. Link to post Share on other sites
