Happy Valentines Day Ladies.



MOODY BLUES

"Say It With Love"

I've been thinking
The way people do
'Bout the things that matter
To me and you
I've decided
To do what I can
And to find the kind of man
I really am
I can see the world from here
And it sometimes makes me
Want to disappear
Back to nature
That's where we belong
And with just one truth I've found
You can't go wrong
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love.

I remember
A long time ago
When I heard those guitars
That I worship so
I was captured
I wanted to stay
And to hear that kind of music
Everyday
Heard the songs
Around the world
Saw the smiling faces
On the boys and girls
I was destined
To play come what may
And there's just one thing
I knew I had to say
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love.

Underneath
A sea of doubt
There's a million voices shouting
Let me out, let me out
When we go
We never return
'Cos there's just one lesson
That we got to learn
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love.

Daemons hate Valentine's day.

:(

Kana Da finds Valentine's Day to be depressing because she is the only single person in her family. :(

KD, pour vous:

Happy Valentines Day all!

Memorable Quotes from
Don Juan DeMarco (1995) on imdb.com

======
Don Juan: Every woman is a mystery to be solved.

======
Don Juan: By seeing beyond what is visible to the eye. Now there are those, of course, who do not share my perceptions, it is true. When I say that all my woman are dazzling beauties, they object. The nose of this one is too large; the hips of another, they are too wide; perhaps the breasts of a third, they are too small. But I see these women for how they truly are... glorious, radiant, spectacular, and perfect... because I am not limited by my eyesight. Women react to me in the way they do, Don Octavio, because they sense that I search out the beauty that lies within until it overwhelms everything else. And then they cannot avoid their desire, to release that beauty and envelope me in it. So, to answer your question, I see as clear as day that this great edifice in which we find ourselves is your villa. It is your home and as for you, Don Octavio DeFlores, you are a great lover like myself, even though you may have lost your way and your accent. Shall I continue?

======
Don Juan: There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same: only love.

I have a friend who calls it "Singles Awareness Day."

The the whole of Canada,

Aw thanks man! How did you know?

*politely takes a cherry-centred one*

Happy Valentines Day everyone!

I'm going to have to side with Daemon and KD on this one. Hey, you two want to celebrate the infamous "St. Valentine's Day Massacre" instead? We can wish people a happy Massacre Day...

I like to think of today as Universal Optimist's Day. At least, I'm trying to be positive.

The day promises to be good (double spare with my girlfriend, and then retiring to my place). Although I've never had such a hit on my wallet. Valentine's Day: 1. Ralphbucks: 0.

Geeky candy hearts for all!

Eww. I'm a bit squeamish. How about Telephone Day?

Today in 1876 - Alexander Graham Bell applies for a patent for the telephone,as does Elisha Gray.

Be my anti-Valentine?

Even if you don't love the holiday, no one hates candy. Make yourself at home:



Happy Valentines Day everyone!

Me too :(


Happy Kill-Me-Now-I'm-Single Day, everyone! :D

CANDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, on the brightside of my Valentine's Day....I've been unofficially declared 'most popular' in my program at school.

Out of everyone in all 4 years taking my program, I was sent the most candygrams by others :lol:

You're so lucky! There've been candygrams and flowers sent out for 3 years at various schools I've been to, and the only one I got was a prank. :(

*repeats The Rules to self*

Not that lucky....still single :(

I was sooo tempted today to go over to my crush and hand him on of those conversation hearts, that said something lame like "Be Mine". (I thought it'd be cute ^_^ ).....But I couldn't work up the courage to do it.

That's actually a good thing that you didn't. . .according to this book I've been reading, males are naturally the pursuers, and having women initiate stuff ruins it.

It's a great book! I've been thinking that I should start a support forum for it, but I haven't found enough single girls.

Are you kidding. Most of us are so lazy, we'd be ecstatic to have the heavy-lifting done by the other party.

The trick is to just be pretty blunt with the hints like: I will say yes when you ask me to marry you. Or....maybe that was just me.

It's just you... and it didn't work at first. :P

(Although it did put me into a cold sweat.) :ph43r:

lol :D

It wouldn't have necessarily been an "initiation" on my part anyways.....just more flirting. Which we already do anyways. :rolleyes:

I agree with Daemon (wow, I've been doing that a lot lately. Scary), but in my case, it's not so much laziness--more of a fear of being shot down. Suffice it to say my most solid relationships have been ones where I'm friends with the girl first (and I somehow get along well with females, it works out pretty well that way)

Guys like a challenge. It's a biological fact of life. Why do you think there's more of them on sports teams and stuff?

Girls are supposed to make it a challenge, but not too hard. I can't give out any more details here for fear the guys will figure out what's going on. Interested single girls, PM me.

As my final post in this my happy valentines thread, I would first like to appologize to all of you who I upset with this thread. I only meant to send you all a little love and in no way wanted to cause open wounds to fester.

Now as to KD's "RULES". She was kind enough to give me the author's URL where I spent a fair amount of time seeing what they had to say. I am not a psychologist. (Neither are they!) but IMHO their book and all they say and do is aimed at making them a large pile of money at the expense of not yet very worldly young women. If that is not the case, then the authors are complete idiots.

I think you could get better advice at "Lucy's" Booth.



Have a nice day. :wall:

Depends on the guy. Sure, I'm competetive by nature, but I'd rather be able to say "Hey, do you like me?" and get a positive response than have to play games about it.

And there are plenty of women who compete on sports teams, too. Competition is an inherent *human* trait.

What, you're going to do what you're "supposed" to do? I say forget that.

But if she makes it too easy, you'll lose interest. It's happened time and time again. This method is time-tested.

I'm going to disagree with that. The girlfriends in my life haven't made me "lose interest" by making it "too easy". In fact the opposite is true--I'm more likely to become disinterested when she's playing games.

As I said, it depends on the guy--sure, there are guys like that, but just because it's happened frequently doesn't mean it always holds true and that you should pattern your life on it.

*soap box warning*

I believe that the wrong message is being taught by this book, and sometimes both genders tend to make it more difficult than it needs to be.

In my opinion, the best way for a girl/woman to make 'it' a challenge is by having values and beliefs that she is not willing to break from. Not only does it make you interesting, but it means that you are strong and worthy of more in-depth study. Most guys are willing to step up to the plate when they are given that kind of a challenge. Why lower yourself to game playing?

When you find someone who is up to that kind of challenge then it is time to drop the games and make some commitments.

The best way to become that kind of attractive is to find ways to make yourself the kind of person that you would want to be with. Would you want someone who was playing games to get in your head. Honestly, think of everything you hope for in a partner and strive to make yourself that person. Usually, you attract what you are. It is just a fact of life.

Once girls stop worring about finding 'him', and start enjoying who they (themselves) are.....it just happens.

*thanks, I'm stepping off now* ^_^

I agree with Red (woah. That is creepy).

Games and "tests" and "making it challenging" just seems dishonest and disrespectful. We're all people, regardless of gender. Life is large and tough enough without having to manufacture more of it.

Speaking for myself, I'm not interested in another challenge. I also think that you want to be regarded as more than just a tall peak, I don't think that you want to be around the kind of males that are just interested in pursuing what they can't have. They're restless and self-destructive people, largely.

If you have to put on a facade to keep someone, or attract them in the first place, then you are throwing away your chances at something real. Don't do that, you really owe it to yourself. I know that there is little more earth shattering or devastating than being rejected for being your own naked and unadorned self, but I do believe that being love for something that you are not is far worse.

I agree with everything KG said, though the bit quoted above was most apt (from my perspective). I get along best with those who interest me, and the women I date are no exception. Playing mind games of the type described don't interest me... they sicken me.

I've tried to show "myself." Here's what I've gotten for it:

FB: So yeah, there's this girl. . . and I like her, and she likes me. . .

I don't think many people realize how much I need a boyfriend. I was crying last night for an hour because I don't have a boyfriend. I feel like my heart is being squeezed and squeezed with every day that I don't have one until one day it's gonna burst and leave me with a pile of heart on the floor.

KD, why do you feel you need a boyfriend? What makes it important to you? What do you hope to gain from it?

I am just not into Valentine's Day...

Well, since it's over 360 days away, Ess, that's probably a good thing--especially for your hubbie, who otherwise start feeling a teensy bit overwhelmed.

I've already 'trained' hubby not to bother doing the old hearts/flowers/chocolate thang. I'm just sayin' 'cause there are too many people who IMO stake too much in it. I love what your friend calls it! :lol:

I need to be "someone's special valuable," the one whom someone can't possibly live without, where I'm the most important person in someone's life, you know?

And of course you are ready to accept all the responsibility that comes with that position right?
