   To begin with, I think,
   “You complete me”
   is the weakest thing a person can say, especially a woman. For it implies that I (whoever is saying it) is NOT a complete human being in themselves. It implies a lack, a certain void in my being, in my SELF.
   And unfortunately, being with a man does not complete that void. It only makes if bigger, emptier.
   Only YOU can make yourself WHOLE. Nobody else in the whole world can/ is capable of completing you. Your hollowness, your sorrow, your pain- comes from within you.
   I know. I’ve tried. Yet I am incomplete. I also thought this was romantic, Till I realized it is just weak. It shows my lack of being as a person, as a woman…
   Ooh I am still incomplete. But I know the inadequacy is mine..ti fill, to fulfill…

   Besides, to let somebody else “define” me, would mean even more weakness. By weakness I don’t mean a kind of soppy, simpering, silly woman- but one with less of a sense of self. Of self-worth.
   You have to define yourself yourself babe!!
   The other person may have no sense of grammar or punctuation! Oh Horror

   Very creative as always!

   a few years back I’d be jumping up and down to say and hear those lines and I’d still in poetry and ‘ideal’ life but just that I have been shaken up and told that it doesnt happen this way!

   I feel a bit out of place, but I can only think of my parents.

   Ah, and I jes read your comments!
   Alazyguy – we are on the same page

   Rachna: You complete me does not make for a weak line. It just means finding the right person who complements you perfectly well.

   However, its been so often used that saying it definitely makes for a weak level of creativity.

    Everytime I see Tom Cruise say it to Renee Zellwegger, it makes me believe in romance once again.

    If ‘I started you’ and ‘you complete me’ then we are in perfect harmony, complementing each other in a ‘circle’!
