When the seat is up, we fall in and the water's pretty cold.

I was thinking about the book "Atlas Shrugged" (granted, this is fiction) where people were portayed as expressing their love and it turned out it was pretty empty. And then there were people that demonstrated intense love but never uttered these words. But they did utter words to the effect of "I am your doormat as long as you will let me" and the other said something similar. And every day that they were not treated as a doormat was a gift.

And there lies the argument 'Honey, Why do you want to be the doormat when I don't treat you like one?', which she doesn't really mean. But, from a guys perspective since she asked, she means it. And then the guy feels like that doormat. Are we getting anywhere!!!

I prefer to leave the seat and the the lid down. Not for political reasons (although it does bring a kind of equality in that both myself and my girlfriend need to move something), but because of what happens when the loo is flushed. I read somewhere (I don't know if its true, but it sounds reasonable) that when a toilet is flushed, a fine spray made up of what ever was in the bowl will go several feet up into the air and then settle over anything in the bathroom... including toothbrushes.Originally posted by John Meyers:

But is it possible to love someone without trusting them? I don't know, perhaps. Or would that just be a crush, and not "real love"? Depends how you define love I suppose.Originally posted by Paul Wheaton:
I've put some thought into this and I have a lame theory. Love is trust times ten.
