Would you ever date a Turk?

[hyebruin]

you're a freak! ...speaking of freaks! went to the local fair the other day with a friend and we happened to spot handcuffs for sale; so of course i pick it up and examine it and laff....and could NOT believe the words that came out of his mouth next! this nice looking, polite, courtious guy says: "so where are the things they use for whipping...and chains?" well, for once i truely WAS speechless! did not know what to say (now i wonder what other kind of stuff he's been thinking about and if any of the plots involve me! ) yaaay!!!

There's a selfish way of looking at things and a selfless way of looking at things. Selfish is basically saying "All that matters is how I feel" which is where the "of course I'd date a turk as long as WE got alone and it made ME happy"... then there's the selfless ideal of "I in the singular am not important... I am the past, I am the future an dI am the present, my actions should be for a greater cause then my own." Now NO ONE can tell me sh*t because I've been on BOTH sides of the fence. Recently, I've decided to convert over to the latter mentality.

...and they have extremely white teeth ...or is that just an illusion formed by the contrast between the black and white?

EVERYTHING is an illusion! including our actions and our relationships! it's all about perceptions and illusions and the little lies and 1/2truths we tell ourselves to comfort and console and make ourselves happy! like gevo's sig says "we see things the way WE are"...and life CAN change the way we see things! nothing is absolute! nothing is forever! it's all a game of perceptions and illusions! THE END!

If you're doing it right, a large part of dating should involve making the other party happy. I don't see what's so selfish about that.

Part of realizing how insignificant you are in the singular is realizing that history could care less who you date. Another thing to remember is that the only way to end old blood feuds is either for one party to disappear from the face of the planet or for one party to eventually show the other a little bit of love. Not to say either side needs to date one another, but a slight attitude change is called for on both sides.

Aren't you the guy who said there are no selfless actions in the world?

No, spiral and flames were the ones that said that.

Huh why so narrow minded? I would date a Truk if she is worth it.... she will eventually know I'm Armenian and if she can't cope with that, well then...

[garegin]

armenians like to take things lightly.
remember that part in "Ararat" when Aznazour told the guy to buy the Turk champain. Gentle reply turns away anger, indeed. Why all the fuss.
The girl would probably get puffed up when she knows ur armenian.

Narrow minded? So when someone thinks for themselves, using their own head, expressing their own opinions and preferences, they are narrow minded? Only idiot liberals would think that.

All I have to say is that i am racist and nationalist too. But the good type, I wouldnt kill or hurt any other race, but neither date them and marry them. I love only armenians and the other nationalities are just friends with me.

P.S. most of the armenians are like me, but they just deny it and they pretend they are openminded...blah blah blah

I wouldnt date a Turk just becuase first he has bloodthirsty ancestors, he is turk, muslim and most important non-armenian. I would say the same about an asian (not the bloodthirsty part), australian, black, red, and any other eskimo type of humans.
