IF love is a business proposition, how would you INVEST?

Hi Daryljane, I tried to ask myself the question you're posing here, however I was unable to see love as business proposition, even though for some it mightbe just that. We all know how for example the families of rich homosexuals have arranged marriages for them with wealthy or high society ladies just to have the public opinion "eye" turned to the other side. There we could talk of a business proposition. But I understand what you would like to see answered here and will give it a try Apart from caring for all of their physical needs, I will give them quality time to share our interests, go out and enjoy ourselves, sharing cultural events, holidays and such. He will have the freedom to go out with his friends, go to clubs, doing sports, whatever he'd like. patience is also a requirement as there are always things that you wont be able to see at first, thing that at a later date might start to irritate you. All of us have our lesser sides, and if it comes from both sides, the exceptance of such - the life together will survive and go on. So these are the points that according to me are needed (and thus - invested) in a relationship of caliber: 1.Caring 2.Sharing interests together 3.Patience 4.Passion There might be more but these are the most important once for me

I think love is a bigger risk than business, if you open up a business you can put as much in it to it work as you want, many hours, try new ideas, consult the experts, advertrtise, get new products, you are in control to try anything but in love you only have half the control, people never stop growing and for a partnership to work you have to both grow in the same direction, you only have your part of the partnership to control there...so it is a bigger risk I think, a person can only control their own heart, so after a few heartbreaks myself I would say I would not not invest too much unless someone absolutely swet me off my feet....

Love has no business proposition.Do not sell love, nobody will buy it.

I would invest everything. To answer what lilaclady said so eloquently, giving and even reeiving love is akin to being a warriour. What are the attibutes of a warriour? Strength and bravery - in the face of fear. What is more scary - terrifying then opening yourself and being vulnerable? I would say initiate with caution but be open, listen to your inner voice. My inner voice has never been wrong, yet I've yet to actually really listen!

hi daryljane,ok if you are saying to compare love with business and asking to invest in it what i would do is what a businessman does for investing and succeeding(as you are comparing the two here):first i will be fully dedicated to it,i'll do everything to nourish it so that it grows with time and for that i will show all my patience like a good businessman tries to win in the end with all profit..even i will aspire to win over my beloved.. I'll do it with all honesty just like a good businessman is honest in whatever he invests or does.. I'll invest my love,dedication,emotions,feelings,sincerity,heart,soul and mind just like a businessman invests his shares,money and other things.. I'll show tolerance to time if something bad happens as losses in business .. I'll be consistent in it till i achieve my dream or my love.. but i won't be negotiating much & I'll be like a single owner business.. if my investments would be able to please my beloved i'll win him....like a successful businessman and if they are not able to please the one whom I would have desired for..I'll accept it..like a good businessman accepts losses(if you compare business with love,business will have its importance got increased..):-)

"use your haert with your mind" well, i guess in business, i believe that you should not invest everything you have especially when your not sure if its gonna work so, if it does not work,you still have saved something for yourself... in...love,its the same,but i do believe that you would feel the right time when you would like and willingly give up everything just for that mr/ms right... right?

I would give it my all becuase I believe that if I didn't, it wouldn't work out. In love you have to give it your all, love like you've never loved before, and forget about the past. If you don't give it your all due to fear, it's NOT going to work out.

Dear daryljane, Love is not a business proposition. In business if you loose, you loose only money and not your heart and soul which is very vital for human survival and growth. In case you are unable to negotiate a contract and lost it. It does not make much difference in your life pattern and living. It does not affect you mentally, phycologically or healthwise. But if you lost your love, and your lost of love is going to affect you in many aspects of your life. While negotiating a business, you do not get the feeling of happiness but in love there is something which gives you pleasure, happiness and hope of your future life. Therefore love is not a business proposition.

You cannot value love in terms of money,because God is love.

Hello daryljane, I will give my everything to love. That is what I am doing right now. Even though we are married, I think I love my husband more and more and always ready to do every thing for him. Some say it is not good. At least you must love yourself a bit more compare to your loved ones. But, that is just me. If it is a business, if it fails, I guess I will be affected terribly.

Time? Attention? Consideration? Willingness to compromise? I like the saying btw. It reminds me of Dr. Phil, "do you want to be happy or do you want to be right?"

I will invest my all feelings on it,if some time later,it disappears or pales,I will be determined to discard it. And then wait for a good chance to begin my last love.
