What's the craziest thing you've ever done for love??

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common-sense.
-- Helen Rowland

So yes, what's the craziest thing you've ever done for love?

And by crazy, we really mean, absolutely insane. The type of act that makes you go "What the hell was I think then?!"

Years n years ago, I fell for a lady who had everything I could have wanted in a spouse, playmate or lover. She came from an affluent family, was disdainful of wealth and never flaunted hers. She was creative and beautiful inside and out.

I loved her simply and deeply as she did me, but I took a three day sabbatical from her and went to see my family prior to our pending nuptials. I viewed her as a song bird and myself as a snake, we both had our roles in life and I did not want to risk providing an opportunity for that one day, when hunger would overwhelm me and would force me to eat that bird, so I never went back to her.

Choosing instead to spare her from me; Cactus's and Roses bloom differently and have different needs, I was afraid I would cause her harm before I finally fully matured.

And I eventually married another woman that hated me for being a snake and a cactus....

Since then I've morphed into a man that could truly have made her happy, but our time passed years ago and I now have that same deep, simple love for Tisha, and we compliment each other Toni.

Omg. tl corbin! I smell unpolished gemstones. No, there are no naked dwarves in my room. Your story can be polished and fashioned and mounted on a big writing pedestal. That has got to be a screenplay. Maybe a movie that follows the branching paths you both took because of your decision, then a retelling of the life you both created if your decision never materialized. Including what kind of life your actual wife created without you. I bet the details of your decision's effect are depressingly delightful and deleterious! That last sentence brought to you by the letter D!

Nope anon, just another page in a largely dull life. But the movie rights are yours for the asking letter D.

There is no way I would ever set the love of my life free without being forced to. Raven, you must be sado-masochistic!

Years ago I dated a boy who, as it turned out, was a drug addict. A part of me thought I'd be able to leave him in a heartbeat but another part of me knew I was already drowning in heartache for the love of him.

At one stage, I found myself visiting him in the mental ward of a public hospital where he was under 24hour supervision. The present-day me is kinda disgusted by what I did but back then I was only 19; naive and thrilled by anything out of the norm. So, yes, while the supervising nurse sat just outside his little room, we punctured a hole in my tights, I sat on his lap and we made silent love. I don't think I've told anyone about that before!
