Comments on: The economics of love http://donkeywest.com/2009/10/19/the-economics-of-love/ A repository of words and the world around them Wed, 14 Sep 2011 16:26:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: woolfian http://donkeywest.com/2009/10/19/the-economics-of-love/comment-page-1/#comment-1072 woolfian Sat, 31 Oct 2009 04:47:07 +0000 http://donkeywest.com/?p=490#comment-1072 Dear Ceteris, I hope I have not been extremely complicated in my reasoning here. I sometimes had trouble myself keeping the flow of my thoughts coherent, but I was so, so tempted to give it a shot. I am glad you agree with me, and honored that you took minutes of your (I am sure) precious time to re-read an intricate diatribe. Consequently, I cannot but be fully appreciative of your patience. To be honest, I sometimes think that feelings can be put into nice and cute equations, but I am also happy to realize, each time, that the erratic element of chance and emotional action is always present. It is what makes the whole thing worth it. Thanks for your words, for reading this and for your attention. I am really moved. Warm regards, W Dear Ceteris,

Impresionada por el par de veces que tuve que leer este post para, finalmente, admitir que estoy de acuerdo con usted. Impresionada por su capacidad de analizar semejante fenómeno. Dejemos atrás el caplitulo de Reagonomics y entremos al mundo de Loveonomics. He dicho. Estoy impresionada.

I must confess I hesitated quite a bit before posting this, considering it way too long and cheaply philosophical for a blog. However, a certain mischievous side of me could not help herself and off it went. I would love to hear your take on this, and your disagreement as well. As I said, aiming to find a parallel between an alleged science like Economics and the mystery of love is a challenge. But again, life itself is a challenge, so why not try? Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read such a lengthy diatribe. I hope it did not bore you too much. Regards, W. Dearest Emi,
