  • UPDATED: Love and Regret

    According to an old movie (Love Story), love means never having to say you're sorry.

    So does that mean the next time I need to apologize, I can just say "I love you" instead?

    I better take down that disparaging post about Michael Wong...

    UPDATE:

    I should have been clearer. I was not talking about relationships here. I meant at work or in other non-relationship ways. You know, like this:

    Boss: Johnson, you screwed up that order. Now Buffalo has no gaskets.

    Johnson: I love you, boss.

    Boss: What the f@#$ did you just say to me. Back up... what's the matter with you?

    Johnson: I love you.

    Boss: You're fired, you freak. Put your pants back on and get out of this building.

    As for relationships, there are times when "I love you" is the only correct response even if it seems that it is a totally unrelated response.

    "Do I look fat in this outfit?"

    "I love you."

    "No, really, do I?"

    "I love you. Get your coat. We're going to the mall."

    "Why?"

    "Because I have no flowers to give you."

    "I love you too."

    Then again, especially on this side of the world, you're expected to show someone you love them, not tell them.

    Talk is cheap.

    LV is not.

    Nobody loves me, I can tell you that. I buy all my guitars myself!

    I wanted an LV. Mr. P said, sure, go get yourself an LV if it makes you happy. I think he meant it too. But I couldn't bring myself to drop $1500 on something as lame as a handbag. I just couldn't do it. Besides, people would assume it was fake.

    Some of us don't say ILY enough. Including myself. Esp to other adults.

    What should I think if someone asked me why I wasn't wearing any jewelry?

    apologizing will work better on a girl, in particular ur girlfriend.  if u say "i love you" instead, ur girlfriend may think that u're insincere or u still think that u're right.  =P

    Oh no, it wasn't just the picture. It's the whole concept. I was just afraid of having to tell Michael I lo...

    That was too close.

    I think we do learn from movies, though few if any of us have them as a sole resource.

    I also think that what little I might think I know about love is probably at least half wrong.

    We would be in deep do-do if we had to learn how to behave from movies. I think love does involve learning how to apologize and forgive.

    Did I have anything to do with you feeling grief/remorse over the MW entry? I could've taken it all wrong. I could've missed the whole point of it - that you meant the image on the AnD banner offended you, and nothing else.... ;D
