"When a man has once loved a woman, he will do anything for her, except continue to love her." Guys, truth or false?

"When a man has once loved a woman, he will do anything for her, except continue to love her."

- Oscar Wilde

Truth

False

[TheGodEmperorLeto]

context would definitely help... if it means once loved her but it ended then ya he'll still probably be loyal and help her (not do anything for her though) and no he won't love her again or give her another chance. But even then, I'd say over all false.

[Distant]

Truth.

[Uprising]

Care to elaborate?

[Distant]

I just imagine my more serious ex and would do anything for her except continue to love her. That's exactly how I feel so I would believe it to be true. Clearly, at least Oscar Wilde agrees with me and that's worth way more than a "disagree" vote on GAG :P

[Uprising]

Thank you for your answer!

And good thinking :)

I don't see how that can be true. When you love someone and do everything for her, that's because of love so he is continuing to love her as he's doing things for her

[Uprising]

Maybe it's for old times sake?

[slipslender]

i'm not quite sure what this means... what if the relationship ended badly? I don't think he'd be willing to do anything for her.

[Uprising]

I don't think that's the situation in this quote. I think it's more about general relationships. And that's what I'm trying to figure out.

How can you do everything for someone when you don't love him/her. You'd be a hypocrite!

[Uprising]

Not when you used to love them, apparently.

[Opinion Owner]

I disagree with Oscar.

[Uprising]

And you have every right to. It's just a question.

[Opinion Owner]

I know :)

[Uprising]

Okie dokie then :)

[Opinion Owner]

haha you're sweet :)

[Uprising]

lol, thanks, you too :P

[MrOracle]

I think this quote was taken out of context. There might be specific circumstances where this is true, but overall, it is NOT true.

[mikeespi]

I say its truth, I will help my ex's in any way I could, because its the way I am, but I would never be able to love her again, it depends in the history you had with her

Oscar Wilde was a gay man...how the hell would he know? lol

[LLG09]

Aww. That's kinda sad. :(

[animal_lover]

its not sad...its bs

[LLG09]

Think so? I don't know...some guys are full of bs in general. XP

[animal_lover]

not true or false, bullsh*t

[toulouse]

bullsh*t. +1
