And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

I Quote That - Making Choices

Sure, it may be controversial, but I found it rather poignant, and wanted to post it.  The quote is aimed at women or gays.

I'm not sure what to say about this one because I've never been in that situation before and I hope I'm never there. That can't be true because you've always loved David and you always will because you just can't turn off love like a switch. You taught me that. I just made you happy and I truly loved you for who you are no matter what. I still do even to this day. You chose me because our love for each other was stronger, but it doesn't invalidate the love that you had for your previous partner. And that's okay. If you never would have met David then you would never have met me. Everything happens for a reason. Live life without regrets. Denying a first love is a form of regretting it and that's just not you. I'm still not entirely sure why you posted this but as always, I still love you bunches.

Actually this comment was not directed at anyone personal. It's controversial in the sense that, some will read it and say, "this is not true, because I truly did love the first person I was with, he just screwed me over." or you will have someone who will say, "I fell in love with two guys at the same time and didn't know who to choose, because both were good to me." But on the other hand, if you love someone whole-heartedly, and you're with them for a year or two, and you allowed yourself to fall in love with someone else while in this relationship, then you might as well stay with the second, because obviously you truly didn't love the first if you felt the need to cheat and fall in love with second.

In reality, if you cheat on the first, you can't say you "truly loved" the first, because you cheated.

In other words, I truly love you Ryan. I truly do. But if either of us cheated on each other, how can we say we truly love one another after that. You Can't. It would take years to repair the damage. True love is about not cheating or finding someone else. It's about that "one true love" David is not my true love, you are. David is an ex who I loved dearly, and I truly loved him, key word being "loved" - past tense. There was never a choice to be made, our relationship was over.

Now if I cheated on you, then how can I say, I truly love you? How? I can't.
