ORIGINAL: juliaoceania quote:
~smile~ I am demonstrating the love. I love you enough to be genuine, to be real, to be vulnerable. I love you enough to honestly share the wisdom I've learned, and I love you enough to respect it is not my place to decide whether you listen or not. I love you enough to understand that you decide what your beliefs will be, what ethics you will follow. I love you enough to hold you accountable for your behaviour, not anything else. I am sorry, but that is as much love as you inspire in me. For more you'd have to be a friend, or the woman I seek. You love no one enough to just be loving and kind...no.. you do not "Endings" - A True Story quote:
It is not loving and kind to exalt one's self at the expense of others I think this is where your friends would say "stop snivelling and pull up your big girl panties". Sharing experiences and beliefs may aggravate someone's insecurity, but the alternative is silence. Part of achieving a degree of maturity is accepting that there is a very big world full of people who will disagree with you. quote:
It is not loving to put a popcorn eating smiley up waiting for drama ~smile~ It's not nice to target an individual with a thread and a thinly-veiled accusation that you are suffering from an undiagnosed condition called "asperger's". The popcorn was a metaphor signifying my awareness of the effort being made and its purpose. I think of it as a gentle lesson in the hopes some wisdom may be gained from it and future events such as this need not occur. quote:
It is not loving or kind to assume that people are attacking you so therefore you take it upon yourself to attack them first It is love that places me in a position where they can attack me to their heart's content, and they obviously derive great pleasure from it. quote:
It is not loving or kind to post snarky comments to people just because you disagree with them For example? quote:
Gandhi was the type of man that became the peace he wanted to see in the world... Jesus became the love he wanted to see in the world... Buddha became the inner calm he wanted to see in the world... You.. you just spout opinions with no actions to back them up...which isn't necessarily wrong or bad, except you profess to represent the way of love, and you are so far from it that it is almost laughable if it were not so sad, because you will never see it... too damn threatening to admit you might have some small flaw or other, everyone is flawed. So let me see, I should be compared to Gandhi, to Jesus, to Buddha ... and because I don't discuss my flaws here, I should be presumed to be arrogant. Anything else regarding your standard we should know?

When your bdsm paradigm makes love essential, expect some flack from those for whom love is anathema.
