Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

roll eyes smh...

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

G, it is not that I don't "listen to you". I hear what you say, but I don't always agree. smile

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the topic, Bod. And, though I understand and could appreciate your point of view, I'm not sure that I agree fully.smile

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

Thank you for your input, Bod. I also ascribe to 'showing respect in one way or other', on a basic level. However, when it pertains to someone that we profess to love, or who professes to love us, that respect should be on a higher level. Don't you think so?

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

Good question, CC. But I think that the patriarchal nature of most societies (inclusive of my own) is largely responsible for that, and it's not easy to "get away from the truth", as you say.sigh

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

For sure, that's one reason why I prefer to spend more time in 'friendship', than just hopping into a 'relationship'. sigh

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

I agree, but, based upon the extent and frequency of the wrong, the 'love' could also fade.

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

Usually, one has to have a healthy dose of 'self-respect', in order to understand how to give/show respect to others. Love and respect are different constructs but depend on each other for efficacy. How is it possible to 'love' one's spouse/partner yet disrespect him/her through infidelity? What is wrong - the depth of love or the level of respect?

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

At this stage in my life, I no longer value love above all else. I now prefer to focus more on giving and receiving respect - valuing who the person is, his personal views on life and his expectations of or wants from a relationship, whilst sharing the same about myself. If I can accept/respect him for what he has to offer as a person, then that's a good start for me.

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

I agree with you about the "depth of love" being an important factor, DL. Perhaps it determines the level of respect that one may have for another (and also oneself), that is the key.hmmm idea

RE: Storm On

I'm sorry to hear about that, but I'm glad that you've made it through and are safe.dancing applause

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

I agree, but partially, as it pertains to respect. I believe that everyone should receive respect as a human being, regardless of achievements, rank or status. However, if a person speaks/behaves unethically, or purposely causes harm or distress to me (or to others) then he/she might lose my respect.

I agree, Ten.handshake

Have you heard of the Marburg? Another new virus is on the attack so be careful.

Hopefully...sigh

Have you heard of the Marburg? Another new virus is on the attack so be careful.

Thanks much.

Have you heard of the Marburg? Another new virus is on the attack so be careful.

I see...it's a recurring virus, somewhat like the Corona that mutates and returns to wreak even more havoc that it's previous visit. uh oh

RE: Storm On

laugh I'm sure you do. Please keep us abreast of how you're doing. I pray that God will keep you safe.comfort

RE: Storm On

Hi Track, how's it going with that storm?

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

I believe you are right, CC, especially your point about familiarity and taking others for granted. I've certainly been guilty of that before, as well as having been taken for granted myself. hmmm

Thanks for your input.thumbs up

In this article:

Equatorial Guinea has confirmed its first outbreak of Marburg disease, a virus which is closely related to Ebola and can kill up to 88 per cent of people it infects.

Although only one case has been confirmed, 16 people are suspected of having caught the virus, nine of whom have died. More than 4,000 people have been quarantined at home.

An important piece of the puzzle of life. Yeah...so I'm guessing that you mean you can't have one without the other, Tru?hmmm

laugh Well, I don't know about the priest thing, but you'll certainly have my attention.wink grin

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

wow 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?dunno hmmm

Is it possible to Love somebody but not RESPECT him/her?

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?wink grin laugh banana hug
