So, so sad, I miss her so much and its so painful not having her here with me but then I get to thinking she's with my mum in a better place away from that vile bar steward.

I adored my sister as she did me.
That must have painful for you to write, LQ, Thank you. I too hope he gets his just deserts.

Re: Love

Oh Queeny this is sad. I know friends that have suffered this mental torture.
Love is a strange thing, it comes in many forms, it will be analysed till the end of time.

Re: Love

I'm not too much into analysing love.
To me, it's either there or it isn't, you can't make it happen, neither can you stop it happening.
Even love can be accompanied by joy or pain at times though.

No, I would never stay with anyone who hurt me or tried to dominate me.
There would be no point as I couldn't trust him again.

I may sound like a saddo, but sometimes I think it would be nice to feel loved again once more before I depart from this world. Is that daft?

I don’t want to come across as a nit picker but ‘this’ is NOT love. It’s anything but love.

Re: Love

I would never wish to be overwhelmed by a feeling of what some people term as 'love'.

I totally agree Bratti, but they will not listen.
They say it won't happen again, and I know he loves me. But it does. These type of men are control freaks!
I cannot interfere as I will get the blame.
I was physically threatened by one!
How some females mistake those type of people for believing it is love is beyond my comprehension.

Re: Love

I reckon the meaning of 'love' in a successful partnership can change depending on age.

Friendship has to be large part of it for sure. Although the physical aspect counts for a lot and might continue for years, it can become not so primary as life progresses. If lucky, the interest becomes less of a factor at about the same time for both. Then one or the other doesn't feel bad about it.

The friendship that has also been there throughout the years then becomes the more important aspect of love and this can endure until the end.
