Ahem...Dante.
Not counting that quote, that post was one word. How, exactly, do you justify that word? Where do you get that a relationship at 45% (or 37%) romantic-ness from one party doesn't have a very good chance of succeeding? You should explain yourself a little further, so you don't look like a complete moron.

60%. I half agree. In a sense, yes. I've seen things work. I've seen things not work. I've also seen enough to know that love means different things to different people, and being an abstract word in itself, its impossible to classify one's version of love as "right" or "wrong."
But what I do that this does not is make the distinction between "love" and "true love." True love happens when you meet someone who is completely and utterly compatable with your own version of love. But the proof for that is only in the outset. To someone who can't help himself but fool around with other women, true love may be finding someone that doesn't mind an open relationship. For most people, its just finding someone who is capable of completely forgiving their faults. Love is what you make of it. True love is when your loved one agrees. I'm pragmatic about its classification, but a complete romantic when it comes to my own beliefs. Its just that my vision of what I want is a bit humbler than most.

Not to mention, it's a bit rude to deliberately give a public emotional response to something like that and not explain why. Now, talk!

*snort* And because I post the results of a quiz anyone could have taken and gotten the same results for, I automatically "belch up the details of my personal life"? You imbecile,go back 50-60 steps, run forward, do a double somersault and disappear up your own ass. You are a prime candidate for a retroactive abortion. Quote:

Your Score is 45 Percent
You appear to have a well-balanced romantic self. While you may get flutters in your stomach when you meet someone you are very attracted to, you do not let your romantic-self entirely dictate how you proceed. You will ask yourself if there is a chance this relationship will work before allowing yourself to fall in love. Even if you feel a romantic connection is viable from a practical sense, you will not just allow yourself to be swept away. You do not have many illusions about love. While you may feel a very deep attachment to someone, you know love rarely conquers all. You know successful relationships take work and compromise and a desire by those involved to make their relationship work. Candlelight dinners and words of endless love may be nice, but they don't pay the bills or get the dishes washed. The middle ground on the romanticism scale is neither entirely safe nor entirely lackluster. However it does not carry the weight of a romantic failure based upon being swooped off your feet. Nor is the middle ground so devoid of romanticism that you feel like you are living with a sibling. Also, there is quite a bit of evidence that with your outlook on romanticism your relationship has a very good chance of succeeding -_- Dante there is no hope for us -_-

Sarda, leave Dante alone.
Dante, ignore Sarda, and stop insulting him. You're treading close to the flaming rule. In other words, both you two learn to respect each other. Especially Dante's privacy. We sure as HELL don't need to hear about all the angst he has bottled up inside. Seriously. So yah, shut it.
