in response to raj's feelings regarding "magica" (not sure who this is either, but no matter), carlo replied "dude, get over her. she's not that good in bed. trust me..." or something to this effect.

first off, since when does this become ANYONE's business, and since when is this an EVOLVED individual's means of judging a person? i find it sickening and disgusting. although i know none of the circumstances , i know enough to realize that this response comes from one who is too much of this realm and one who truly is not enlightened. you are a disgrace to this site and my sympathies to raj for having to endure such arrogance!

i was unable to decipher your entire posting, however, i did make out your indication that carlo is not "mean".

I'm not saying anyone is mean, but Quicksilver is right in that that statement can very easily be taken the wrong way.

We all have a right to communicate freely here, but we have to keep in mind that conveying our intentions through written posts can be somewhat limiting. What may not sound hurtful to me may indeed hurt someone else. We just have to be conscious of how we express our ideas.

The kid never came up with any sensible answer to why he thinks he actually has a snowball's chance in hell of marrying a girl who he has spoken to once (at the time, and I assume, still just the once). In other words, it was a reality slap, and we all need them, even you, since you live in New Jersey. Doh! Just kidding I went to college in NY, so I get to take the free shot lol

So you're offended, okay. Raj, I apologize, if you're listening. I didn't mean to insult you of this girl, I just meant to say what I said before: in my opinion, you have no chance marrying a girl you only spoke to once, and wasting time writing two or three lines to her each day here, when you should be taking her out, despite all the "forces" who would keep you apart. Please. This is the 21st century, people, get a life. Call her up, or give it up, I say, in all caps, actually. You have some different, or perhaps more mature advice, New Jersey?...then kick it. Otherwise, I don't and won't speak about it anymore...let the boy have his sweet dreams

Actually I do agree with you. I gotta admit. Sometimes (and I know from firsthand experience) these Taurus creatures (and I believe Raj is a Taurus, correct?)are so one track minded and totally blinded that they abandon all the common sense that they are so noted for! I can't for the life of me understand how or why Raj is so enthralled with Magica. She never seems to reply or even acknowledge his existence. Now maybe there are circumstances that I am unaware of, in all fairness. Even so, one cannot claim to "love" another while hardly knowing a thing about them (except in the universal sense of love, of course). It seems that Raj has been captivated by an illusion. In any case, I believe that there should be a balance to all things in this world. Love is no exception. Krishnamurti (a very wise man though I do have trouble with some of his beliefs) has counceled in several of his books that it is not "love" if there is a sense of "clinging", or of pushing too hard. Love should not be a struggle. It just "is", even through the darkest of circumstances. One cannot and SHOULD not force these things. To do so is indicative of some "soul work" that needs to be dealt with.

In closing, Carlo -- sorry for snapping at you like that. I am a Pisces and it was out of character; except that I have Leo rising. That troublesome Leo!!! And to Raj, you stubborn Taurus... how about trying to let go a bit and let destiny take it's course? You don't seem to be getting the desired results with your current "modus operandi". Why not try a new approach? I know, I know. Change is frightening. But it's the stuff that life is made of. And that's pretty exciting, don't you think?

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!!!

Glad that all is forgiven and no hard feelings About Jersey Girl, not sure about it actually! Hmmm.... I'll have to find out. And yes, Ben and JLo both being Leos-- I wonder if that will help or hinder them? We'll see!!!!

You know what I think? I think Raj WANTS us to spend all this time arguing over what is none of our business anyway. Well, controversy over. From now on, I say we just IGNORE it all! There are much more enlightening things to think about.
