Love keeps you very... busy!
I read the news of the forum a few times a week, but do not have anything special to say these days, waiting for new Pixies songs and preparing my own alternative "career". Busy at work... for a change!!
I recognize the bitter-unsweet moody Monsieur... ha! La France!!!
You're welcome in Paris anytime PixieSteve! I promise I am not rude like my national contemporary fellows!!
Haha!
Kisses

Let's hear it for heartache
Let's hear it for pain
Let's hear it for poison tears that wash your dreams down the drain
Let's hear it for sleepless nights
Let's do it again
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Pick your heart up off the floor
This is what you've been waiting for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for promises
Something sealed with a kiss
Let's hear it for big mistakes
That you just couldn't resist
Let's hear it for bucket seats
Let's try it like this
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Pick your heart up off the floor
This is what you've been waiting for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for letting someone totally ruin your life
Let's hear it for love
Let's hope it's everything you hoped it would be
Let's hear it for jealousy
Let's hear it for hate
Let's hear it an apology before it's too late
Let's hear it for cigarettes
Baby you were great
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love
Let's hear it for
Let's hear it for love

When you love, love, love in mad delerium
With a love, love, love, that's quite sincere, you...something
I couldn't find the lyrics online, unfortunately.

According to Aristotle, there are 3 sorts of friendships: the one based on interest (usually between older people), the one based on pleasure (common among youngsters), and the one based on virtue (very seldom found), which encompasses yet transcends the previous two.
I recommend reading Nicomachean Ethics Books 8 and 9. It is a gold mine for those willing to understand what friendship is all about (and so much more).

Aristotle argues that friends can be viewed as second selves. Just as virtuous behavior improves oneself, friends can improve each other--this is the importance of friendship, and the reason it may be regarded as a type of virtue. The success or failure of a friend can be like one’s own success or failure. Aristotle divides friendships into three types, based on the motive for forming them: friendships of utility, friendships of pleasure and friendships of the good.
Friendships of utility are relationships formed without regard to the other person at all. Buying merchandise, for example, may require meeting another person but usually needs only a very shallow relationship between the buyer and seller. In modern English, people in such a relationship would not even be called friends, but acquaintances (if they even remembered each other afterwards). The only reason these people are communicating is in order to buy or sell things, which is not a bad thing, but as soon as that motivation is gone, so does the relationship between the two people unless another motivation is found.
At the next level, friendships of pleasure are based on pure delight in the company of other people. People who drink together, or share a hobby may have such friendships. However, these friends may also part--in this case if they no longer enjoy the shared activity, or can no longer participate in it together.
Friendships of the good are ones where both friends enjoy each other's characters. As long as both friends keep similar characters, the relationship will endure since the motive behind it is care for the friend. This is the highest level of relationship, and in modern English might be called true friendship.

I am very sceptic about love being a friendship without interest.
For example, it seems irrational for Romeo to fall in love with Juliet. But some might argue that he might have done it just to prove that he existed as an entity different from his family. So he did it just to prove that he was capable of something else than just being a Montague. So is there anything that you don't do for yourself in this life? The solution to this problem is that you are not different from the others, ie your relationship to others is the same as your relationship to yourself, because you are another and the others are you.
So love is just one mode of behaviour, which is neither interested nor uninterested.

I think that right now, thanks to my contribution, this thread has finally gained enough intellectual interest to have the right to stay on this board.

Hwolski, I would truly like to discuss those topics in your salon, but Le Marais is way too far from my home. Sorry.

So is that what the French actually do? Sit around drinking coffee and discussing the philosophies of love?

Didn't Aristotle also say that thoughts originate in the heart, and that the Sun goes around the Earth?
