These are the politics of love, as written by Michael F. Nyiri, searcher everlasting.

I am writing this on Super Bowl Sunday, February 3rd, 2002, and at 2:43 pm pst it is nearly time for kickoff, but since I'm not a football fan, I'm not watching and instead am creating the rest of the pages to my new updated LoveSearch section of my website. Which brings us to the subject of the philosophies of Love. I put a few "definitions" on the original Lovesearch page and will link to those and current musings here.

Firstly, my concept of love is simple, but since I've been uncoupled for most of my life, these philosophies must tend to be rather complicated.

Each person is destined to be coupled with their equal complement, the "other half to their whole". I had the mistaken impression in May of 1999 that by putting a "LoveSearch" page on my website, I would truly find my other half. All the personal ads I posted yearned for connection with this persona, a cipher about whom I have been writing for decades. My equal. My love. The receptacle into which all of life's passions would be poured.

I still haven't found her. Click here to read about "The Other Half".

When I am fated to find my other half, I want her to know (although being my other half she would by definition know already) how my mind relates to what I call the concept of "The Kiss That Lasts Forever". Love, when manifesting itself physically, during the act of sex, is the most powerful force in the universe. I haven't yet felt this true force, even after nearly a half century on the planet.

Love has been elusive. Now I'm not even sure whether or not I will ever find the type of immersive love for which I have been searching. Just recently, one of my email correspondents wondered if I still believed in "kismet" or "fate" and the fact that I truly believe each of us has a complement.

I still believe it, but it still hasn't happened to me.
