When a man loves a woman.

So, in light of this new information, perhaps the people who were acting revolted were not responding to all men who want love, but specifically to how you acted in this specific instance when you wanted love. It is worth your consideration.

Next, you may wish to consider whether all people react uniformly to the same individual, as if there were only one possible light in which to view that person's actions and only one possible response. Once again, it is clear that this is not the case.

Perhaps it would repay your effort to examine once more how you chose to act, and how other people reacted to it, with especial attention to the chance, the merest possibility, that the collective judgement of the group who responded to you might have some validity. Might even, indeed, have some wisdom.

What could it hurt?

Actually, thats not entirely true. I was on Road Rules, and they edited my character to appear to REALLY want love, when in fact I did not. My hormones got the best of me a bit, but over all, It was I whom had to dust away the ladies. Well..sorta. But back to the point, they even went as far to edit dialouge abou my dead dad and crazy brother in such away that it appeared to be about my feeling towards one paticular girl on the show!S

So it is a little personal, though I tend to seperate peoples opinion of my character from myself pretty well, ususally. Kinda usually.

Oops. I just remembered. The only thing more repulsive than a man that wants love is a man who's trying to look like he doesn't want love but does actually want love.

So I guess I just got more repulsive all of you. Shit.

But anyway, the specific examples I mean are these. A friend of mine got kicked out of his band because he sang a song called "I just wanted to be loved" and all the girls left. All the men just looked down in collective shame.He was a handsome bloke too, popular with the ladies when he wasn't wanting love. And the part in Swingers where the guy makes to many calls in a row. If a girl did that to a guy, it would be cute and indearing, like "Oh gee, she really hasn't learned how to be sophisticated like Julia Louis Dreyfus yet". But in that movie, with a male performing the deed, it's awkward and painful.

Just picture this, a man stands in the center of a road and yells "Love me!" Lets just say the man is...Jimmy Stewart. Creepy? Yes. If a woman did the same thing... a woman like... lets say.. Candice Bergin. Wacky and Charming.

I mean, it obviously boils down to the fact that men are suppose to be tricky and manipulitive in order to have attractive personailties, and women are suppose to be forth coming and tactless. I mean, if women DON'T want love, then they seem cold and dumpy. It cuts both ways.............................................

- isn't this kind of um, like something anyone can claim these days? "Oh yeah I was on that TV show"

Well if so - if you don't care, that is - which season and which character were you? It's probably crossing the boundary of privacy to ask but if you really cared about privacy you might not have brought it up..

I was on season five of Road Rules. I was the good looking one. And yes, many people have been on the show now. Before, I felt like a free mason. Now I feel like a boy scout.

And I'm not the Cowboy. And chadiwick is a weird guy. Seems like a prick, but I only met him three times.

Sorry, I just reread this and am now too busy rolling with hysterical laughter to continue either the love discussion or the Road Rules discussion. Will attempt to regain composure (and stop talking about Road Rules) later...

Well, the last girl I was dating hadn't seen the show until a few months into the relationship. Then there was a marathon. She told me "It's a good thing I never saw that befor eI met you". I replied "Why, did I look bad?". Her response "I don't want to talk about it. Lets just say you looked different.

She broke up with me last week.

Anywya, I did like Anne, but not as much as it looked like. That's where the "tears about my family edited to look like tears over girl" comes in. I never cried about anne. It was pretty much purely physical attraction, not much emotional connection with her. I mean, shes nice enough, just not my type.

Infact, I had a girlfriend at the time, who actually visited me during shooting, but they edited her out to make me look more love needy. It was even in that weeks t.v. guide, that "Jon's girlfriend pays a visit" but they edited her out at the last second.
