The Trouble With Harry/Tribbles/e-Voting

I used to believe in fate. I used to believe that there was some order to the world, some plan that ultimately leads us where we should be. Then I woke up. I realized that everything is chaos. There's no order or design to life. There are actions and reactions, consequences and nothing more

I thought you didn't believe in fate. "True Love" sounds very fatish to me. If you don't believe in fate then that means that really any of those females that you consider dateable could potentially be girls that you can love, and can love you. Hell, if the world is in as much chaos as true chaos implies, numbers don't really mean much of anything.

And yet love happens everyday! Oh, what glorious sunshine happiness it is! Life is shitting rainbows, it is!

When I think about all the girls that I think I could have fallen for I realize that I've met quite a few, gotten to know them fairly well in some cases even, but the timing didn't work out, or they themselves just didn't want to be with me at that point in their lives or whatever the reasons were it just didn't quite click just right. But they are out there, and they can be found, and I think everyone knows the ones that are special when they meet them, even if its a crap shoot to make anything of it. Whatever, it will work out. Practicing making eye-contact with people whenever you catch yourself not doing it and watch everyone elses reactions. Americans are horrible at eye-contact, but when they do make it you can get a much better idea of who your dealing with. (i meant to post that in regards to one of your other posts but got sidetracked till now, that is why I merged the two into one)

I think a good portion of the population upon meeting someone they like merely "modifies" their previous expectations of what they were looking for. Say you are looking for a liberal leaning, asian american, big breasted, comical woman. You might meet someone that only has two, or maybe one of the characteristics you were looking for, but for some reason this other person is really what you wanted and you just didn't even know it. my point, that we can't quantify our chances of meeting our dream woman. we just have to understand that when we meet a special girl and she cares about you back. It seems to be just what you were looking for.

I believe in love, true love, soul mates, etc. but I just don't think it's going to happen to me. I have romanticized the idea of being a cat woman with a lot of house plants, that loves knitting, that scrapbooks about her cats and house plants. I am starting small with a baby bunny and an orchid but I knit and scapbook. I actually think a life like that sounds fun. Lot's of great people, mostly artist, died alone....or killed themselves, but still.

Anyway they say what we call love is just a biochemical imbalance like skitzophrenia and some forms of so-called "love" rest in the area of the brain related to addictions. So love is a mental disease and/or an addiction, how you respond to it lies in psychology, how you cope.

Oh Add Em, will you be my valentine?
