Love can include things from both sides… I think a better measure is how long and how peaceful your relationship is reflecting a strong understanding of each other. It’s ok to be excited about each other and be in love.
What the hell is this? I don’t even see how half of these work. Peeing is love? Well, good news for Bear Grylls. Other than that, not sure if original writer was trolling or just forever alone stupid.
yes.
I didn’t know love included not wanting kids, but lust did? Could of sworn contraceptives were meant for the one night stands.
^ thinking the same thing
I agree…. I think those need to be switched!
Married with two kids already. Damn skippy I ask “did you take your pills” every night.
Love would involve possibly wanting kids. Lust definitely would not want kids.
muh heart is broken
You’ve all really missed the point on the post, but thats ok, someday kids!
Damn skippy I did. And honestly don’t think I care too.
I ROFL’d at “I thought failblog was better than that”.
I liked the post, and it looks like you scored some feminists
Love this
Shows the difference between a healthy and unhealthy relationship right there. Totally understand those who don’t like it though, I just see it from a different perspective
This post made me unhappy. Then I read the comments and became happy again. Faith in humanity restored, thanks to you failbloggers. Seriously.
That is exactly what I was just thinking.
This looks like it was made by a very young person who knows the meaning of neither.
This^
Definitely should have put a dot in the ‘U’ to counter the heart-shaped ‘O’.
Wow, I think this post went over a lot of people’s heads; there’s a lot of “can’t see the forest for the trees” going on here. Obviously not every phrase is exactly what someone in lust/love would say… I believe the point is that “lusts”/probably-not-long-lasting-relationships tend to involve obsessions with fleeting or superficial things (e.g. someone counting specific days a smidge over a month into the relationship, someone finding their partner’s smell so important when smell obviously fluctuates so much as the day wears on AND depends on what deodorant/shaving cream/soap/shower/etc. you use…), while a long-lasting relationship tends not to sweat the small stuff (like mentioning to one another that you need to pee or that the other hasn’t showered… things two people in lust would NEVER DARE say to one another for fear of ruining the ‘magic’ of the relationship… somehow…)
I can disagree that some of the phrases specifically fit on either side, but I understand and can agree with the overall intended point.
Maybe the problem is, there is no forest to see. I could spend an hour finding the meaning behind a pair of chopsticks on the floor, but by the time you need that much effort to pull the meaning together, with a huge error margin (ie: everyone who missed it), it’s not a funny, ironic joke.
It’s just a bad one that comes off as an irritated petty stab thinly masked in passive-aggressive humor as a disguise. Things I like about coffee: smells good, tastes good, it warms me up in the cold. Things I like about this joke: nothing, f*** you.
I think this list is terrible.
“Lust” does not mean “short term crush”, it means sexual desire. “Love” does not mean “long term relationship”, it means romantic attachment.
Given that the list makes no sense according to the usual meaning of words, everybody is left trying to analyze what the submitter “actually meant”. This is proof enough that it is worthless.
This must have been written by a woman and based on a very narrow set of experiences. While some one night stands involve a fair bit of acting to close the deal, all of my “lust” relationships longer than 12 hours have been quite a bit more “blunt” than my “love” relationships because I didn’t particularly care if being filthy would end it. I think most any male would agree that if a woman even mentioned children in a lust relationship, she would be out the door and her number deleted. That is almost always repulsive in male sexuality. Furthermore, I don’t think anyone’s odor scent really changes. Things like deodorant get added on top of your unique hormone biological scent, but they don’t cover it up. here’s something to pheremones that your primitive brain responds to. A lot of my married female friends have told me that they were immediately attracted to their (eventual) husbands at the beginning when the guys were sweaty from sports and they noticed that his BO smelled pleasant instead of stinking. Just my take on things.
I know for a fact that what I have is love and just the other day, I said, “pull over in that dark spot in the woods, I have to pee. and then we’ll do it.” also, we know we want kids and they’d be super cute, (asian babies are the best), but we’re not ready for them, therefore he asks me every other day, “you’ve been taking your pills, right?” after having a twenty minute conversation about how badass our kids will be at dancing. this is irrelevant.
a relationship should have both spontaneous and passionate sexual desire as well as being comfortable with peeing in the woods with one another.
I was thinking more like “love” and “tolerate”. Or maybe “1 year” and “10 years”…
Spot on Kim. It’s a humor site, folks. This is not Nietzsche or Dr Ruth, it’s a joke. If you don’t get it or it doesn’t resonate, move along-nothing to see here.
I don’t see how you can possibly know someone after only a year of being together. I’ve been with my life mate for over 13 years, and I’m still learning things about her.
Kids? Ha, no way. She hates the little mewling bastards.
Sexual passion? Medication precludes that, but I love her in ways and with an intensity you little whelps can only dream of.
It’s amusing how much this post has upset some people and I find it interesting to see just how folks define each. Too many folks are taking this personally and that speaks volumes as to just how things really are for them. I was taught that love without trust is love. Then again my thoughts on what trust truly is.. well.. as a secretive little Scorpio mine are pretty rigorous.
I, for one, think this is great. It’s like comparing highschool/college lust as compared to a more settled and comfortable love. People aren’t willing to say things to a new untested love that they’re willing to say to someone who has seen you at your worst (such as puking from illness at three am while looking like the living dead). I kinda agree with this. It’s not saying that after a while the lustful aspects are gone but that it’s tempered by time.
In other words… if this upset you think about why instead of getting defensive.
everyone in this world wants to see their relationship as the perfect one, and defend it as such. hahaha guilty.
