During a rather heated argument, the husband bellowed: "You don't deserve a man like me."

The wife retorted, "I don't deserve arthritis either, but I got that too."

The following were posted by Victoria Karas on Cheeky Kid's latest ploy to get women, the Valentine's Day thread. Let's all go over and pervert it, shall we?

Love is...

"When another person's needs are as important as your own."
-Abe Burrows

"The blinding revelation that some other being can be more important to the lover than he is to himself."
-J.V. Casserley

"True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about and few have
seen."
-La Rochefoucauld

"To communicate to the other that you are all for him, that you will
never fail him or let him down when he needs you, but that you will
always be standing by with all the necessary encouragements."
-Ashley Montague

"When a person's own boundary expands to include the you, or the other, that was previously outside himself."
Frederick S. Perls

"To love is to choose."
-Joseph Roux

"Consists in desiring to give what is our own to another and feeling his delight as our own."
-Emanuel Swedenborg

"Not getting, but giving."
-Henry Van Dyke

"Love is such a funny thing;
It's very like a lizard.
It twines itself round the heart
And penetrates your gizzard!"
-Tee hee hee

"Finding the cool satisfaction of heaven in the heated embers of the
pit."
-Warren Goldberg

"I'd gladly lose me to find you.
I'd gladly give up all I got.
To find you, I'd suffer anything and be glad...

I'd pay any price just to win you...
surrender my good life for bad.
To get you, I'd run naked, stoned & stabbed!
I'd call that a bargain, the best I ever had....

[refrain]
In life, one and one don't make two, one and one make one. And I'm
lookin' for....that free ride to me, I'm lookin' for you!"
-The Who, "Bargain"

"Consists essentially of respect for the other person, and unwillingness to use that person solely as a means of personal gratification."
-Bertrand A. Russell

"Consists essentially of telling the other person that you respect her, then willingly using that person solely as a means of personal gratification."
