Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her? (60)
Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her.
A relative, maybe, because you can keep your distance.
But a romantic relationship.... Run for you life

I can think of some I only respect or only love.
Sometimes both accur at once, and I guss that is the best.
But is that combo seldom? So rare you can mostly forget it maybe.
I'll settle for love, as there is not many I really do respect in this world you see.

If you love someone then you should have affection towards them and have an emotional closeness and intimacy and are inclined to commit to each other’s happiness so both of you feel like you have found the right person to share your life with.
Respect, on the other hand is more comprehensive. and would mean having a deep admiration for someone’s qualities, abilities, and achievements etc.
Respect should come from both partners as it allows both people to feel valued,and even if you don't always agree on things, when you respect each other, you should be willing to keep an open mind and consider different perspectives.
Combining the two in my personal opinion is absolutely necessary for the relationship to have any chance of lasting.

Wow G, would you also prefer that a woman love you, even though she may not respect you?Sometimes both accur at once, and I guss that is the best.

Makes much sense, TM.Respect, on the other hand is more comprehensive. and would mean having a deep admiration for someone’s qualities, abilities, and achievements etc.

Again, it's not so very different from our last discussion (at poems).
You claim that in order to achieve B we need A.
And I say no, let's go straight for B and if it can be reached-
enough A is most likely there.
U know?
Besides, A doesn't always result in B, and you're just as far then.
First time it was be a gent- and the rest will follow. I said forgetaboutit.
Now it's show respect and the rest will follow and again I refuse that it works that way.

I've always believed that if you love someone, then you obviously have respect for him/her and would always want the best for that person. But some years ago, a therapist I was seeing said something to me that caused me to question that philosophy.
It came up again over the weekend, which had me thinking again. So... please share your thoughts on the topic.
Thanks much.

If you fall in love with someone and later realize they are bad, you can lose respect for them, but it takes a while for reality to set in and overrule the love.
You can quote me on this:

Is this a diabolical plan of yours to 'oppose' the ideas/opinion that I discuss about life, Oz? Or is this some twisted way of flirting?You claim that in order to achieve B we need A.

Thanks for your comments, Chat. Much appreciated. However, a distinction can be made between 'loving' and 'falling in love' with someone (I think), which could make a difference with losing or giving respect. Don't you think? ------ This thread is Archived ------
