: : Ever read Kierkegaard's Repetition? Interesting presentation of the idea that when you idealize someone, or try to define them in ideal terms, you end up becoming unaligned to the existent person. Or in this case, you poeticise a girl so much you effectively cannot marry her (for the existing person is no longer the person you love). Gotta love Kierkegaard.
: : Sorry you didn't like Sartre that much; I've always had a wary enthusiasm for him, but he wasn't wonderfully original. He at least acknowledged the debt he owed Heidegger, but he never admitted how much he owed Kierkegaard.
: Isn't love fun? ;) Two things; (1) Yeah, isn't love fun? Love that whole idealise thing, turn a bird into a dream and your relation with the real one is screwed. (2)What do you think to my theory that what a guy really wants in life is a girl who makes him think he has got a large member? ps never read Kierkegaard, is he cool then??
