Poll: Do you have to love someone to call them your boyfriend/girlfriend?

[Soxafloppin]

Nope, I've never loved someone before i was in a relationship with them.

Hell no. You only have to look around at the amount of cheating to realize that. I see it more as a 'We're trying to love one another' moniker. That may eventually evolve into love. And keep the moniker, puzzlingly enough.

Hells no

You don't have to love someone to date them. I would be a lonley cowboy with a full tank if that was the case

Haha poor emotionless robot Pimp! Looking for lovin not love!

Noooo. It doesn't hurt, but to claim that love is necessary for any kind of intimate emotional attachment is illogical. The inverse holds, too...just because a relationship exists does not mean that love must inevitably follow. I learned that particular lesson early.
