Love Is Like A Trident

Ahh, so now I'm a little loose and ready to share some wisdom. Here is a list I've compiled of the various types of relationships:

1. Love & Love - There has been enough written about this.
2. Love Him/Her - This is historically famous for causing trouble. Many a great things have gone awry because one party has been in love with the other, whilst the latter is relatively uninterested. Shit really hits the fan if they engage in sexual relations. Physical contact has taken place with the two people.
3. Pseudo Love - This is when a person imagines they are in love with someone for their qualities. They are infatuated with certain aspects of the person's physical/mental makeup. The emotion never reaches a deeper feeling and is relegated to a perceived love on the surface. This is different from #2 as there is no physical involved, ever.
4. Sex Partners (previously known as Fuck Buddies) - This is when good friends like to hump. You'll often hear the term: "Friends with benefits". Does this imply your other friends have no benefits? Fuck you then, I'm not ever buying you another drink. You can also kiss your Christmas card goodbye.
5. Convenience - This is not a very common situation, but it still exists. Two (possibly more) people are together for a common reason. They hold no deep emotions or ideals, but exist together as a simple means to an end.
6. Imagined - Similar to #'s 2 & 3, the difference lies within one person on the delusional level. They act in a manner not normal to their usual self and act in a generally insane manner. They are convinced that the opposite person is their mate for eternity. No level of dissuasion is possible.
7. Broken Love - This is the bottom of the barrel. This the most painful emotion that one can feel. Two people are in love, they are forced/pulled apart by outside influences that they have no control over. This situation leads to many developments in a person's life, sometimes it leads to the end. This kind of relationship can have shattering effects on someones pysche.

Many other types of relationships within this realm can be stated. However, they can all be traced to the above. Ultimately, relationships with other people are the most simple, complex endeavour you can partake in. One way or another you will be educated, confused, sad, happy, angry, ecstatic, and finally a better person.

"On the hit parade of love I know I'll never stop
I've got a long long way to climb before I reach top
But if I do get there soon I'd really have it made
Then I'll know I'm number one your lover's hit parade" - Jimmy Martin
