Love Advice

[Wayne Goodwin]

What would be the best Love Advice you could give someone your own age ?

[Lifesighs]

If someone was my own age, I don't think they would want or need advice. If they asked me I would tell them to be very very careful and sure, make sure the person brought out the best in them and treated them as if they were precious. 

I think we deserve the best we can be at this time in life, nothing less.

there is no such thing as "happily ever after".

Follow your heart. So what if you fail, at least you will have felt love, even if it's not returned.

[T2Friends]

Good advice Crest...like the line in the song, "guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all"

Not just people my own age but EVERYONE....Get to know each other FIRST, become friends. KNOW someone at LEAST a year before making a drastic move such as getting engaged, getting married, or moving in together. Remember that MANY relationships are WONDERFUL in the first 6-9 months and that is often the time when people JUMP into very serious things as I just mentioned. If the red flags haven't showed up at that 6-9 month mark, they WILL very soon!! Sometimes they are things that can be dealt with and some are not but at least you are not LOCKED IN to something serious if they are not "DOABLE"!!

i'm not sure i could give em any .. i think if you truly love someone and there's a chance you can be happy then you should take it .. but at this stage in life it takes a lot of finegelin to make it work .. you'll both probably have lives already by this point and it would take a leap of faith to give up what you have for the great unknown . especially if what you have is comfortable .. we all want comfort by this point .. but love ain't always comfortable .. love will make you do things you never thought you would .. you only get one shot at it sometimes.. some are afraid to reach for that brass ring and some will fall off the carosel reachin so hard .. all i can say is in the grand scheme of things tho is when you compare love to everything else , everything else is like mickey mouse .. i'd rather be the one fallin off the carosel reachin so hard than the one afraid to reach at all .. cause some day you'll look back and wish you had ..

Amen.  I'd rather fall off the carousel too and think What A Ride!  I have never regretted any broken heart I ever had.  Sucked going through it, but with the bad was lots of good.  Johnny Rodriguez has a song, but I can't find it on Youtube, nor can I find the lyrics, but I have it on Itunes. Anyway, the title is "What a Memory You'll Make", and it's what we are talking about.  When enough time has gone by and the pain subsides, what a memory you'll make.
