If you touch a boiling pot and you get burned. Will you touch it again?

Hiya TTD, Answer is no I would not do that or go near it. Me too I know what it feels like to be betrayed so I could not do that to someone else. Am I too softhearted? Perhaps its because I have seen the other side of the boiling Pot and ouch I don´t want to get scalded anyway. Although I have been scalded by other People with their boiling Pots a little anyway I will not allow them to do that anymore. Lastly being scalded by a boiling Pot when you use one you have to use two good kitchen cloths and hold both sides of the pot with those so you don´t get burned. It can happen so easily too. xxx

I would say "Once bitten twice shy".But of course it does not apply in all cases. I know people who have burned themselves time and again and are yet ready for more.Temptation is the forbidden apple many can't resist.

For me as a normal person no because you love your self and by doing it you find love to Jehovah God.

Hello!You put it compared to love,is really wonderful.Indeed,the love is like this.Although well know,the result is painful,but still attracts people actively engaged. Happy every day!

I have to agree with the several others above where I would not touch anything boiling to begin with. I have to think that if I ever did it was because I was going too fast and or did not give the consequences forethought. As for a forbidden affair, for me that would never happen. I would not enter that area as I know what it is like to be betrayed. For me personally there would be no excuse for me having done so to someone. So there is just no way I could say it was accidental and or not having place forethought.

I think that you have to very careful about what it is you are doing when you do something that hurts either yourself or others. Surely the point of making mistakes is to learn from them - I would hope that I would learn from the mistakes I have made in the past, and be sure not to make the same mistakes again.

Here is a little known fact~ If the boiling pot is on the stove, its possible to lift it off and place your bare hand under the boiling pot and hold it up with no ill effects. The pot is still boiling but you are not burning your hand. The reason is that the bottom is not in contact with the hot water, and the condensation is not hot. Yes I would be able to touch the boiling pot again, many times!

This really boils down to a case of cause and effect. Yes, most people do make many mistakes in their lives. Some of the mistakes that we make are one time things because the effect of the mistake that we've made is so great that we remember it for the rest of our lives. However, there are other mistakes that we make in our lives that have a short term effect. When this is the case, then we really do make those same mistakes again.

Touching the boiling pot once would probably be an accident. touching it again would be just not thinking on my part. i hope i would have the common sense not to do it again but accidents do happen.

Once is a mistake I think, regardless of the situation at hand. It is something that can be excused and understood. Twice, is a level of morbid curiosity that I think a lot of people have. Will the same thing happen again if I do this stupid thing once again? There are a lot of people who tend to see if they can duplicate the same nasty results and they get burned, literally in this case. However more than twice, and we're getting right into the more of excessively stupid behavior. There are a lot of people who are going to really tend to keep making the same mistake over and over again. To be honest with you, with each passing time the mistake is made, sympathy tends to fade away and it becomes a comedy of errors a lot of the time. Once is understandable, twice is experimental, three times, and you're just a fool. At least that's how I see things.

It is only a mad man that will touch a boiling pot. I still think mad men are even wiser because they know the consequence of their action which is that they will get burnt by the hot pot. If I touch it accidentally, I will accept my mistake go to the hospital and get treated but at the same time I will make sure that it does not happen again. I will take some safety precaution. I think all home should put safety first by switching off all domestic appliances before leaving the home for our workplace.

Why should I touch it again? I think there is so reason for to touch. Literally, for the boiling water issue, of course i don't wanna touch it again. But if you are referring to a forbidden love, i can not give my definite answer because there is something behind in it. Sometimes, there are just things that you can't resist..

It really depends. If I like the way it hurts then I probably would. But since it burns, I'd really rather not touch it again. Hehe. Sorry. Well really, if it is just temptation just like when you get tempted to touching a boiling pot, then it is rather for us to avoid it than get hurt or burned in the long run and get scars out of the burning.

Lots of people if they get hurt they will continue to love that person for there happiness not thinking they may hurt the person they love and also herself. It looks like stupidity. That's call LOVE is Blind.

totallyundecided sometimes that boilingpot or bad choice of men can lure a woman in but if she does not learn from getting her fingers burned then shame on her.She never heard of this famous saying"fool me once shame on you but fool me twice, shame on Me" which means either you are intelligent enough to learn from an error or you do it again and now the shame is on you. If I had been an idiot enough to love a no good man and got myself hurt badly,I would use my common sense and not return for more pain and hurt.WE can all make one mistake, but to keep doing is is stupid and brainless too.

I think that it means try things in a different way until you get results. Use a pot holder to lift the pot after using your bare hands failed.

Honestly, I wouldn't touch the pot in the first place. If I touched it accidentally, or something like that, I certainly wouldn't touch it a second time. I would be careful not to do the same thing twice.

Yes, i will touch it again. That's the way humans are, we will not learn our lesson because we tend to forget it fast, or listen to advice from friends. It's especially the case in love. When we are hurt once, we might hide from it forever, but there will be friends and family members, advising us to come out of hiding, go through the process again.
