Does anyone know anything about a repressed libido?

You don't have control.

It sounds like both of us get attracted to women way out of our league and can't help it, and not being able to get what you want hurts.

Physical attraction != "what you want."

They are not the same thing.

Why kill the libido?

Libido can be the very first roots of all things we find beautiful and good. Libido color the worlds of our perception with with some magic and poetry if we know how to deal with. Dont you ever see that's Libido and Arts creation have the same roots?

Libido can take all color; sexual desire, power desire, and in the other way of a spectrum, libido can be poetry, love of beauty.

.... supress the libido, and you supress a great part of the divine and the beast that make a man, a man.

Well said.

I didn't mean it like that.

What good does art do for the world? Nothing. It is simply another way to distract ourselves from reality.

I think I'm seeing John's problem (no offense)

Or at least, the results of some underlying problem

Erm, what the hell is the POINT of life except to have fun? I mean, I suppose you could devote your life to helping other people have fun, but fun is still the ultimate goal here.

John: It's a fairly cynical point of view, but you gotta think of life this way: Each passing second is a second closer to death. That second is yours to manipulate in the way you wish. You'll never get it back.

Time NEVER stops, it's always marching on. You've got to do everything you can to enjoy it while you still can.

Reality is what you make it. If you want your life to be full of paranoia over yourself, so be it. But you'll never have a go over if, in 20 years time, you look back and think "why didn't I something more enjoyable".

The phrase "Life each moment like it's your last" isn't a cliche. It's the fricking truth. Each moment IS you last, because you'll never get it back.

I'm sorry to have to put it so blunt, but each moment passed is a moment closer to death and the end of you, and the moments you have to feel happy and fulfilled get ever shorter.

And don't let someone define your fun for you.

Do what makes you happy.

Hey, somebody else may like it and pay you lots of $$$ for it.

I found your thinking... bizzare.

The reality is we are all going to die, but it doesn't mean that we may as well kill ourshelves now to save trouble.

Fun?

I remember the two last chapter of The Republic by Platon.

Fun is not happiness. Fun are a point on a cycle, between; joy and sadness. Fun is just the moment where your excitement come at the top. But after you'll going down to sadness or even worse.... bored, annoyed.

Hapiness is more like smelling a flower. Even if the flower go away your not going to be sad, you're not controled by your desire to smell again the flower. But smelling the flower, at the very second you smell the flower, you have find a little pleasure without any kind of emptyness.

Without being too kildish, I think Love is the greatest goal of our life. Finding what is love, what is it really, in any area of our life, we have making a move towards something better... When we love, in the darkness of our soul, the potential of force that was asleep is become awaken.

I think for any man and woman; at the end of his life, at the last day of his life, if he is conscious, his last tought will be to the one he have loved or for what he have loved the must. But Hey, I dont know... I'm not at the point to die.... soon

.... 1:57am and I have class tomorrow.....

See ya,

have fun!!

I shouldn't be saying this, but that is one of Plato's worst ideas.
