I like my women like I like my coffee......bitter.

Q: What's the fastest way to a woman's heart?
A: Through the rib cage.

... The biggest problem with dating today is the notion of "compatibility"
itself ... The way to perservere in a relationship is to believe with all your
heart that any relationship is potentially compatible if you put enough work
into it.  What "compatibility" really seems to mean in relationships that work
out is "I finally decided to commit myself to making it work".
	-- k5 avdi

Accident theory for relationships is something that most people, including
myself seem to hold on to for some unknown reason.  But think about it. It's
like saying, I want to get an education, but instead of going to university
I'll sit around and wait until 'education' happens to me.

The question all men want answered: are women an NP-complete problem?

Love doesn't just sit there like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade
all the time, made new.
	-- Ursula K. LeGuin

But who can distinguish between falling in love and /imagining/
falling in love? Even /genuinely/ falling in love is an act of the
imagination.
	-- John Irving, A Widow For One Year

Dean's Rule #45. The truth hurts for a moment. A lie hurts for a long
time.
	-- Dean C. P. (on joelogon.com)

Joel's Rule #12. It's almost always more satisfying to do nothing and
fantasize about what might have happened than to actually do
something.

Sex is a liberal myth, and nobody has actually ever had it. They're
all liars.
	-- k5 alprazolam

I am considering starting a class-action lawsuit against the Hallmark
corporation for causing me emotional duress every February 14th.
Hopefully I will get a settlement large enough to purchase some sort
of redeeming qualities for myself, or at least enough mind-altering
drugs to permanently forget my troubles.

Making love with a woman and sleeping with a woman are two separate
passions, not merely different but opposite. Love does not make itself
felt in the desire for copulation (a desire that extends to an
infinite number of women) but in the desire for shared sleep (a desire
limited to one woman).
	-- Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

The only way to win at love is to refuse to play at all.

It is better to have loved and lost -- much better.

Romeo and Juliet had it easy.

People should be required to go through a divorce before they are
married.

Good friends are even better in bed.

For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most
difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the
work for which all other work is but preparation.
	-- Rainer Maria Rilke

I have loved to the point of madness; that which is called madness,
that which to me, is the only sensible way to love.
	-- F. Sagan

To be a woman's first lover means nothing- To be the last is the
important thing.
	-- Anonymous

Love is complex; it has real and imaginary parts.

I think a relationship is like a shark.  It has to constantly move forward
or it dies.  Well, what we have on our hands here is a dead shark.
	-- Woody Allen

Let's not complicate our relationship by trying to communicate with
each other.

Sometime when you least expect it, Love will tap you on the
shoulder... and ask you to move out of the way because it still isn't
your turn.
	-- N.V. Plyter

Wouldn't this be a great world if being insecure and desperate were a
turn-on?
	-- Broadcast News

We are not loved by our friends for what we are; rather, we are loved
in spite of what we are.
	-- Victor Hugo

I like being single. I'm always there when I need me.
	-- Art Leo

Women might be able to fake orgasms. But men can fake whole
relationships.

On dating male nerds: "the odds are good, but the goods are odd."

I'm so miserable without you, it's almost like you're here.

A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says
afterward is the beginning of a new argument.

We have a great marriage, built on friendship, trust, and carnal
forbidden lust of the most depraved sort.

To find a friend one must close one eye; to keep him -- two.
	-- Norman Douglas

Human bipolarity was both the binding force and the driving energy for
all human behavior, from sonnets to nuclear equations. If any being
thinks that human psychologists exaggerate on this point, let it
search Terran patent offices, libraries, and art galleries for
creations of eunuchs.
	-- Robert Heinlein, _Stranger in a Strange Land_

It doesn't help that our society pushes emotionally unready people
into relationships by acting like, "Oh, if you only had a boyfriend
or girlfriend, your problems would be solved." The reality is, "oh,
you've got a boyfriend or a girlfriend, that's another problem."
