People in love are so boring.

Then perhaps you should watch closer, mademoiselle? There is much defiance to be seen in love. I daresay one could find it somewhat entertaining.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Maybe when you're on the inside of it. When you're just sitting around listening to them ramble on and on about how much they love loving their lover and it's so lovely... ugh.

They never want to go hiking or ride bikes or anything, they just want to sit there and moon. Borders on annoying.

[a-deaths-head.livejournal.com]

I have never had the fortune of truly 'being on the inside', but yes, it takes watchful eyes indeed to find amusement in it.

If I might be so bold mademoiselle, do I detect a hint of jealousy?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Not in the slightest. I'm too old for that nonsense. It's just a pain when I want to go do something, and nobody wants to come with 'cuz they're all busy with their significant other.

It changes people, y'know. Not always for the better.

I must agree with the gentleman. Watching those in love can be more than entertaining, especially when too many loves and too many lies form a noose and it starts, ever so slowly, to tighten around its victim's neck...

Oh yes. Love can be very entertaining.

Not at the beginning, when their heads are in the clouds and there's no talking them down. I just want to spend time with my friend, and all he can do is talk about his girlfriend and how happy they are.

Drives me up the wall.

[sure-shot-honey.livejournal.com]

Not to mention irritatingly smug and ridiculously twee.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

I'll agree with that a hundred percent!

[sure-shot-honey.livejournal.com]

I can't stand all that mawkish 'I love cantalopes and I told Mitch I love cantalopes and he said he loves cantalopes too! Isn't that just so absolutely super-amazing?' crap.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Ugh, it's the worst.

It's a buddy of mine at the hardware store. Danny's a great guy, we go biking together on weekends sometimes. But now he's got a girlfriend, and... well. Looks like I'll have to find someone else to ride bikes with.

[manonmars.livejournal.com]

Even you?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't know. But I wasn't talking about me.

[manonmars.livejournal.com]

Of course not. But not even once?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Not once. Is it that hard to believe?

[head-psychic.livejournal.com]

Or frustrating.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Or both. Can we go with both?

[head-psychic.livejournal.com]

Both sounds perfect with me. You do sound like a woman who might be in need of a good rant. Do you need a listener?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

I got a buddy named Danny at the hardware store. We ride our bikes on the trails on weekends, it's a lot of fun. Lately he started dating this Angie girl, and she sounds nice, but he never has time to do anything anymore, he's always out with Angie. Or else he's talking about her, to anyone in earshot.

I have just about had it.

[wolfy-prankster.livejournal.com]

I don't do love.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Why's that?

[wolfy-prankster.livejournal.com]

There are more important things. Love effects too many feelings that you shouldn't have. If you don't love, you don't get hurt. You are you own person and you don't need to rely on anyone else.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Sounds reasonable enough. But what about family and friends, do you love them?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_call_me_snake_/]

I ain't boring sweetheart.

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

I don't know you. Don't call me 'sweetheart'.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_call_me_snake_/]

I'm someone in love. I call all the girls sweetheart. Can't help it.
