Intellectual flirtation Part 2:

Jessyka: yeah so... that works too... hmm, you're such an outside-the-box thinker
SmurfMD: y thank you...likewise to u
Jessyka: Perhaps I am... or perhaps I just think so INside the box that it seems like I am different? The extreme opposite of the outside-the-box thinker may actually be quite similar?
SmurfMD: hahaha...inside thinkers are confined to conventional methods and thought processes...i believe u are beyond that...or can u explain how an inside box thinker can clearly set themselves apart from looking deeper inside the box without innovation and still appear similar to an outside box thinker?
Jessyka: Sometimes, people will look for the easiest way to do something as the best solution. The outside-the-box person will look for the best way, not the easiest, but will also work smarter, not harder. The deeply-inside-the-box person will look for the absolutely correct way to do something which, by nature, shouldn't be the hardest solution but, rather, the simplest and most common sense way... therefore the outside-the-box person and the inside-the-box person may come away with the same solution
SmurfMD: good answer
Jessyka: A very inside/outside-the-box answer, no?
SmurfMD: similar in selection paradigms but not necessarily the same exact solution....innovation versus the best possible existing method
SmurfMD: yes very....i like it
Jessyka: aww, shucks...
SmurfMD: hehehe

Its been a while since I've posted, but I just had to include this.  Prime example of intellectual flirtation, I love it!

Jessyka: Here's the question (purely philosophical): Can you tell me something about yourself that would make me want to stay with you forever? (If you want, I will explain my reasoning behind such questioning, but not right now)
SmurfMD: what is this an interview? lol
SmurfMD: there is nothing physical nor mental that I can do to make you stay with me forever...chemistry exists in nature, which man can manipulate but never fully control...so in short, what will make you stay with me together is out of my control
Jessyka: No... I just have an inquiring mind... and everyone knows that "inquiring minds want to know."
Jessyka: And I think you answered the question 100% correctly in logical terms...
Jessyka: but I suppose logic has nothing to do with such an answer... you see... if you were told that you had to make someone stay with you, no matter what, you would ultimately resort to emotional manipulation, right? Because logic loses credibility and efficacy after a while
SmurfMD: but where would man be without logic? are we not all seeking similar truths? logic is used to explain things we do not have the answer for, thus to say you have an answer, without logic, is to hold the key to the mysteries of life....to be dumbed down to simply be a case of emotional manipulation only strips away the intricacies of this thing we call "love"
Jessyka: Exactly... but there really is no logical explanation of what love is... and most people call emotional manipulation "love" because they don't employ logic to the equation... they see 1 + 1 and think it equals 2 when, in fact, there are infinite variables that they don't even see because they don't bother to look.
SmurfMD: cheesy movie quote, "there is no spoon"
Jessyka: lol... "there is no Neo" ... *cheesy quote from a flash movie spoof of The Matrixes 1-3*
SmurfMD: hahaha
SmurfMD: then there comes the issue where logic and emotions are mixed....to follow your emotions is not considered logical, and to be logical is not follow your emotions....so in reality, people are mistakenly deriving logic out of emotions without actually looking at the deeper variables that make up "love"...but can we ever possibly define what love is? we can attempt to, but what fun would life be if we knew all the answers?
Jessyka: The undefined is often the most intriguing... because man will always strive to reach the unreachable, know the unknown, and find what was lost in the ancient worlds of the past...
Jessyka: If you had to express what you could offer someone, unique to yourself, what would you say? I mean, really... if you had to?
SmurfMD: in simple terms....a challenge...what fun would life be without someone who challenges you and motivates you to be better than you are? not trying to change you, just want to see you succeed...I'm looking for a partner in crime, not someone to babysit and look after
Jessyka: Someone who you can motivate and be motivated by... an equal in the simplest of terms... perhaps a bit superior at times or a bit less than, but always close to being alike
SmurfMD: exactly
Jessyka: That's how relationships SHOULD be... ideally... it shouldn't be some special thing... and yet it is
SmurfMD: i agree
SmurfMD: Now I'm wondering the same of you...what are you looking for, what do you have to offer?
SmurfMD: it is common place in society for women to ask of the men, what makes you so special, why should I choose you...yet it hasn't occurred to men to throw it back at the girl...theres got to be more than a pretty face and a nice smile
Jessyka:  Well... I can't do anything for you physically that another woman couldn't...but I could stimulate your mind with thoughts and ideas that you perhaps had tasted with the edges of your mind, but could never really fully savor... I could turn the smallest event into something either spectacular or profound, just because of choosing to interpret something a little different than usual... I could whisper poetry of the stars into your mind at night and make you dream of castles in the sky that exist only in the world we have created together... I could intangibly re-create your world into something that you never thought was possible...
SmurfMD: ever seen a guy swoon?
SmurfMD: hahaha
