Have you ever wanted someone so bad?

Question

Have you ever wanted someone you just couldn't have?
Did you ever try so hard, that your world just fell apart?


(Just let me get this Def Leppard thing out of my system, please).

Ummm....I do want serious answers to the questions posed in the song.

Answer 1

I have wanted people that I couldn't have, but I've always accepted the fact that I couldn't have them, despite whatever pain it caused me. It is only when you try to attain that which cannot be yours that your world falls apart, so the liberation comes in the cessation of effort.

Besides, the one person we need as our most precious possession is....ourself.

Think about this for awhile; we tend to over-identify and define ourselves through the mirror provided by other people. The best gift we can give ourselves is to be certain of our identity without reinforcement from anyone else.

Answer 2

Sex is NOT a sin between married people. It's not allowed in heaven because spirit creatures have no physical body. So sex is impossible. That's why the angels had to take on the bodies of men when they came to the earth before the flood.

To answer the question though- yes. I was a very obsessive and clingy person in my teens. Now-a-days my actions would be deemed stalking.
My first two true loves- Robert M and Buddy G. It took years to get over them, but I did.
On another note, I had a huge crush on a married Elder in my congregation. I was married too. I shunned all thought and never even humored the idea. Eventually, the attraction died down to the point it wasn't even noticeable... and now he and his wife live a state away.
We are NOT animals. We can control our thoughts to a large extent and we can control who we get involved with (when it is a choice).

Answer 3

In a way, yes. It wasn't so much that I couldn't have him but more like I knew that it would be bad for me if I gave in to what we both wanted. I went through a period of feeling like my world was falling apart, but I think that those feelings will subside if you give it time.

I believe that in most situations where we don't get what we want it is actually a blessing in disguise. There is something better in store for your future, I'm sure. I know it's extremely difficult when you're right in the middle of the pain, but believe me, it really will pass and you will be happy again.

Answer 4

Question 1: Yes.

Question 2: Yes, but my world fell apart long before that.

Answer 5

Def Leppard?! I'll pray for you, heathen!

j/k, but not about Def Leppard sucking :)

To answer your question: Nope. The very few men I really wanted during my life, I had.

Answer 6

I've really liked this guy for years, but never got up the courage to tell him. My 'friend' told him years ago, but we were friends and he didn't really mind, but it kind of faded away after that. Then as I hit high school I started liking him again. I would walk over to him, while he was alone, and talk to him, and we'd say 'hi' in passing.

Although I really like him, I wouldn't fall apart over him. I did that once, when my boyfriend dumped me, and I'm never doing it again.

Answer 7

Def leppard rules..er.... they used to more back in the day.

Answer 8

Yes, and after 25 years I got my chance.
Four years later, I grooved a ring on her hand in the First Presbyterian Church in town!!!

Answer 9

Yup

Answer 10

I think everyone has experience that depth of emotion for someone. It usually ends badly when you give yourself over so completely to someone that you forget yourself.
