What rules do certain residents of CC follow in their pursuit of love? I will offer a few insights of my own. The rules listed are of equal importance for myself.

Have no fear of rejection.

Develop a tolerance for pain as you may end up with a broken heart. Be strong for you will survive. Life will go on.

Faint heart does not win fair woman.

Marry only for love.

Pay attention to detail.

Accept the woman for who she is at this moment. Positive refinement comes only from God over a long period of time.

I must be willing to accept God's discipline for my own positive change that she may find appealing.

Be patient but let your resolve be resolute.

Pursue with wild abandon in your heart. Do not hold back.

Never settle for second best or someone else's hand-me-downs

Do not date for the purpose of having a one-night-stand, as that is vanity and pointless.

Do not pursue anyone that you would not consider marrying. Do not waste your time.

Offer only the best that has been provided by God. Do not lie. Be honest in all things.

Her feelings are more important than my own desires.

I do not believe in long, protracted engagements. Either you know what you want or you don't.

Play for keeps or get out of the game. This game is for serious players only and not the timid.

All is fair in love and war.

I came here as you posted somewhere... Who is in the clinic now? (this could be another room in it). Could I post one rule I observed> |Be you! and let them know|

If rejection or anythings comes, it was you, and it was them.

Im reading, numbers missed> I liked this> Marry only for love.

No games
No Players
Both are too hurtful

Rule for me - get to really know God and love Him first and foremost - I have never loved someone the right way and would give all my time and attention to them leaving God out most of the time and I failed more than once.

Now I just want what is the right way and I am not sure exactly what that is except that I want God to have His rightful place in my life and at 59 options have dwindled. So have been learning to be content with who I am and knowing that God loves me and cares. I am truly happy and if a relationship did come along I would want us both to put God first.

I dont follow any rules.. I don't play the game.. if I wanted to waste my time and money ill go to the station and buy a lotto ticket.. at least with the lotto ticket the odds are better even though the entire game is rigged.

This one was my favorite. :)

@jesuslives, I hope you find someone :). I know there are a few very loving hearted men here on CC that would make wonderful husbands.

*a lone, single tear tumbles down his soft white fur. His eyebrows pulled into a mask of rejection and pain. he turns, drops to all fours, head hanging low, nose mere inches off the ground, cold as his now hallow heart, as the last warmth of his tear rolls off his nose and splashes noiselessly to that harsh ground below

Well, polar bears are naturally scary looking. So we have to try extra hard to look sad and pathetic. =P
