Is there any place for love and romance in a modern relationship ? Or are we now so materialistic and emotionally impoverished that true love is once and for all dead. Do we all too easily spell love with a pound sign ? Do we all have our own liitle built in spread sheet so that we can calculate all possible financial outcomes. What happened to feelings ?

I met a guy here in Poland who had been working in ireland and had saved some money while working there to invest in his future. So i asked him if he had bought an apartment, he said no that he had bought a BMW - he said and was being totally upfront and honest, that the type of wife he was trying to attract was more interested in him having a nice car than an apartment. interesting right!!!

--- it seems true love has been chemicalised from secretions of matter from the brain, which must be controlled so emmotions are kept in check thus allowing positive conscious organic decision processes-

--- yes romance - seems to be mmmmh --- in transition

ps - most are not "Free" to allow it

If Love is so fickle that it flies out the window at the first signs of trouble - then it wasn`t love.

Is Real Love something that just lives in our imaginations? confused

I refuse to believe that true love fades out and gets a secondary issue in our search, when we get older.

Maybe I am naive, but that is what I am searching for...Financial capability is of no interest when/if I enter a relationship.

Today I think couples in my age worries more abou the compability between the kids. Nowadays it is worse to be presented for the kids than for the parents of your spouse :-)

Oh lordt lordy lordy, a switched on lady. Yes Smokey, that is exactly what I believe. The love somebody else has for is not really the love they have for you, it is the love that you imagine they have for you, which is equal to the love that you have for them.applause
