Question of the Day

[ayoub]

What would you not do for (romantic) love?

Risk my kids, lie, steal, kill...

well there's very little I would do for it in the first place. By the same token there's very little I wouldn't do either, given the right set of circumstances.

#1. I don't and WON'T compromise who I am. You tell me you love me, then you love ALL of me - the good AND the bad. I'm not saying you have to like all of it; I'm a complete and whole package. Period.

i agree :)

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

Same as you. Plus stop being myself.

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

Echoes.

I wouldn't kill someone they know in hopes of meeting them at the funeral. That's just sociopathic!

I would not betray my personal values.

Allow myself to be beheaded. I need the lips you see, for the kissing...

Actually... give up all other opposite gender relationships. Done that. Won't again.

Never listen to Meatloaf again! :)

Kids are number one. I won't do anything to hurt them. Pretty much everything you said, except the kill part. If someone die something horrible to mine, I would seek revenge. I mean, as in nearly kill, etc. My romantic love is my family by extension, so my protection rules cover them too.

My romantic love is my family by extension, so my protection rules cover them too.

Exactly how i feel! Jimmy (my husband) IS my "family" and i'm highly protective of my family.

Hmmm... there are very few things i would not do for Jimmy, now that i have him. But before that i would not do things that would damage my integrity... i would not hurt others to get to romantic love (at least not intentionally).

As Meatloaf says "I'd do anything for love .. but I won't do that" ... for values of that which approach becoming or pretending to be something I am not.


So basically I agree with everyone so far.

I will not give up my female friends .. as donnickcottage says been there done that and they are part of who I am.
I also won't play the "I want you to want to do dishes" game ... why do people have to want to remake someone they claim to love?
I will willingly do dishes because they need doing and I believe in sharing the drudge work, but I will never enjoy or want to do them.
I will never be a household appliance again.

If someone had a knife or gun aimed at your 'love' and was about to kill them... you wouldn't kill to stop them? Seriously? I am not sure that human nature could stop, I guess it is fight or flight, you would fight back or escape. Interesting...

[housecattn.livejournal.com]

I took the question to be .. "to gain romantic love"
anyone looking to harm someone I care about or who is under my care had best STFB because i will do my damnedest to stop them and me concerned with the effects to them later.

1. I will not give up my child for anyone. (ex husband thought I should let my parents raise my child because he didn't want kids. He should've thought of that before getting into a relationship with me...She's from a previous relationship)
2. sit by and watch him treat my daughter like crap and get away with it. Another thing the ex did and I left him.
3. choose between my child and him. She will always win.
4. give up my independence. I might compromise on some things but I'm not about to give up who I am. It's all a package deal.

My daughter and I are a package deal. As they say, one of the most dangerous places to be is between a mother and her child.

The list is long... probably longer than what I would do for love.

I'm content on my own. I'm happy and pretty much fulfilled at this point in my life. If love happens, it will just be a bonus. I'm not looking for it, or pining away for it.

[uawildcatgrl.livejournal.com]

I would do anything...but that...

;P

[sabotabby]

I was about to say...

[beloved-juno.livejournal.com]

Change who I am on a core level. Becoming a different person to make someone else happy is something I absolutely will not do. I also will not give up anything that means a lot to me -- my career, my friends, or my family.

[heardthatnoise.livejournal.com]

Compromise my morals.

[castlelady.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't want romantic love to begin with. LOL!
