Love for losers? email this discussion to a friend?

You can learn a lot about a person by what his or her T-shirt says. Recently, one of these messages caught my attention as I walked through a local shopping mall. A young woman wore a bright red T-shirt that said, "Love Is for Losers." Maybe she thought it was clever or provocative, even funny. Or perhaps she had been hurt by a relationship and had pulled away from others rather than risk being hurt again. Either way, the T-shirt got me thinking."

Is love for losers? The fact is, when we love, we take risks. People could very well hurt us, disappoint us, or even leave us. Love can lead to loss.

The Bible, though, challenges us to higher ground in loving others. In 1 Corinthians 13, Paul describes what it means to live out God"s kind of love. The person who exercises godly love doesn"t do so for personal benefit or gain but rather "bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things" (13:7). Why? Because godly love endures beyond life"s hurts by pulling us relentlessly toward the never-diminishing care of the Father.

So, perhaps love is for losers"-for it is in times of loss and disappointment that we need God the most. Even in our struggles, we know that "love never fails." — Bill Crowder

Unfailing is God"s matchless love,
So kind, so pure, so true;
And those who draw upon that love
Show love in what they do. "-D. De Haan

I dont think it is for losers. My reasoning is that it takes alot of discipline, giving and supporting among other things to make love in a relationship work. I dont think that losers would have what it takes to make a relationship work. It can be hard work and losers dont do hard work in my opinion.

I think there's someone out there for everyone. Love is for everyone. That may be idealistic, but why not believe the best?

Maybe that girl was very hurt, but again if you can't trust that you can surpassed this hurt and survive, then you where already damaged. It is hard to love and loose, but yet again, you don't need a partner to validate your worth. If you can be strong enough to pick up the pieces and then move on, it is because you, yourself are not at peace. Love yourself and then share with others. How happy can you be with someone you are always scared of loosing. You don't attack and keep someone when you are always struggling with yourself. You reek what you sew, if you are a kind and loving person an a pleasure to be with why would you be scared to trust another, it is because you don't trust in yourself. You can't keep someone against their will.

It's just a shirt, any person can mark something on the based on other person's idea. but for what you said, maybe that is the case why she's wearing that kind of shirt..In Love, we win or loose, but never end up selfish or evil just because the person hurt or played on you..love is supposed to be a selfless thing..you let hate get into to you, it becomes a poison..and makes a person a "real looser"

Zelmarq,

I believe that this message is telling us that no matter how we perceive and go about our ways to find the love of our life, there will still be a risk that we will not end up as per our expectations. As much as our life being uncertain and unpredictable, so will our love life as well.

Hence, when our relationship fails, no one wins at the end of the day. So, as what the T-shirt says here, that love is for losers. However, I feel that it would be foolish for any of us to not able to look beyond our limited boundaries where there is an unfailing love awaiting everyone of us and that is to love God. And, till today I believe we have yet to find a loser here.

People may fail us in their imperfections, but God doesn't!

Have a nice day. happy
