Stupid Cupid, Stop Pickin' On Me!

I mentioned in my post yesterday that Monday was treating me kindly, which was a surprise cos I hate Mondays. The good news so is Tuesday, but then Tuesday's have always been a pretty good day anyway.

Most of my work for the day is already done and that leaves me with a lot of free time on my hands for now. And since tomorrow I'm going to be on leave from the office for the day (which makes me love Wednesdays even more ... hehehe) I thought I'd do a tag that was presented to me quite a while back.

Mariuca of Wishing On A Falling Star so graciously or sadistically, take your pick (LOL!) tagged me with this tag that is going to require me to be a little more serious, which I'm not really known for. Serious and me don't really go together very well ... hehehe ...

Now, just what tag is it that actually requires a goof ball like me to keep the humour in check you might say? The True Love tag, of course! You can't go around playing the fool with anything to do with Love now, ok. That is if you don't wanna get shot in your butt with an arrow by that short fat and almost naked cupid fellow ... hahaha ... See, I told you guys I could never be serious :D

At least by doing this I can cut down the number of tags in my tag closet to a more tolerable level of 2,350,678 outstanding tags left to do! Not so so bad, eh? Ok here goes. This tag is about True Love and you're supposed to answer them as honestly as you can or if you're going to lie about your answer, just don't get caught ... LOL!

And don't worry, before you all go, oh no, I wonder who he's going to tag next. I'll be a nice kind soul this time round and not tag anyone seeing as how I know ALL of you have got huge bundles of tags pending so I'm not going to add to your misery for today. Tomorrow maybe, but not today :D So, here goes nothing ...


What does true love mean to you?
When 2 people know each others every limitations, every imperfection, every shortcoming, every flaw and in spite of all that they accept each other without hesitation!

How do you know you're really in love?

When you're away from her you can't stop thinking of her. When you're with her, you can't get enough of her. When you cry or laugh, you want to do it with her.

How many times in your life have you fallen in love?
Can't really remember but the last one is the one that mattered the most.

Have you ever fallen out of true love because you were mad at the moment?
Nope.

Do you feel love and physical attraction are the same thing?
No, but I do believe you need both.

If your true love became ill or disfigured, would you continue to love them the same way?
Silly question this. She's my TRUE LOVE, of course I will. To eternity and beyond!

Should anyone else be able to tell you who to love or not love?
Nope, they should most definitely mind their own business!

Do you believe people that ended up divorced were truly in love?
Yes, I do but people change, life is unpredictable and things happen.

Would you give up something you want for someone you love?
I'd give up my life for her!

If you truly love someone do you feel it should be unconditional?
That's the only way it should be.

Well, there you have it, me being as serious as I could possibly be :D And now that I've done this rather serious tag, I can work on that baby shower invitations my colleague ask me to help him with. He's organizing one for his sister and needs some help with the invitation cards and he knows I can't refuse to stuff like these ... hehehe ...

Gypsy said...

Now Nick, I'm not usually prone to crying all over people's blogs but this line had the old eyes welling up and I was forced to swallow the huge lump in my throat:


"Would you give up something you want for someone you love?"
"I'd give up my life for her!"


That is beyond beautiful and I have to say I like this other side to you. It's not ruining your manliness either, it's enhancing it. I hope wifey reads this. I'm sure she would be very touched.
