Philosophy - December 2006

Have any of you ever gotten back successfully with your ex-girlfriend/boyfriend after you were dumped - on the basis you should "just be friends"? If so, how did it happen?

This question may sound like a sort-of cliché, perhaps not even necessary. But it is very necessary to me, for many reasons. I am a 16-year-old who considers myself an old-soul, in a few ways. But I am not the happiest person in the world, though people tell me I should be. People tell me that I’m too young to be seeking the things that I do (love, affection from my peers, respect from my peers), things that I can only find from adults. But it’s no mystery that this does not suffice. Even if I wanted to, I don’t think I could ever have a (romantic) relationship with an adult; not because it’s “wrong,” but because it’s just not suitable. Nonetheless, I do not think I’m too young to wish I were truly happy, to seek things that “people only find when they’re much older.” I’ve only met two people (my age) in my entire life who’ve ever been to me exactly what I look for in a person and more, and we never dated, mostly because I never thought myself good enough.
Thus said, I’m not asking you to tell me how I can be happy, but what makes YOU happy? I am very much interested. No matter what it may be, I just really want to know.

I have some friends and coworkers with whom I feel very comfortable and at ease. I feel connected to these people, like we are on the same page, despite being in different life stages or having different lifestyles.

I also have some friends and coworkers with whom I just don't feel like I can truly "click", despite seeing them every day and being (albeit superficially) friendly. Although some of these people and I are in similar life stages, I just can't feel a chemistry with them, although some of them seem to have chemistry with one another just fine.

Why is that?? What causes us to click with some people and not with others?

when you love your mother and love your girlfriend is it the same kind of love? Obviously, the love gets expressed differently because they are different people and they are different situations. But is the love the same? Is it spiritual (like true love) or is it hormonal (just good chemistry).

I am reading part two of his discourse of inequality among men. I see that he speaks of humans in nature and I think he says that private property causes vice?

I find more these days, people are eccentric in idealism but no true ethics involved. To be ethical would require much less judgement of others and more tolerance of differences. Yet also being ethical would mean balance of right and wrong in the most point keeping solutions to only harm less than 10% of world as opposed to over half. They go with the idea that their opinions are the absolute solution to everything without the rational thinking that their ideas might actually harm more than resolve the actual problem they have made a solution for. If we sould only grasp the idea that human's have choice and that control over another is something that will never obtain than we can one day have peace. Just remember a person has choice to live in bad conditions even knowing that fighting for their own freedom would cost them their lives. To live in fear, torture, and letting others control you actions is still a choice by that individual. I had choice but lived in torture 4 my life
